After thirty years in the music business as a producer, publisher, and independent record company owner, Dean felt it was time for a change of professions. Staying true to his creative side, he wrote a baseball-related novel, Pinch Hitter, which was published in 2008, and then moved on to screen writing. In the fall of 2011 he decided to take the plunge into indie filmmaking and began to plot out his first effort as a writer, producer, and director: a short horror film entitled "The Body Bag", which was completed in June, 2012. Shortly afterwards, Dean, along with his actress wife, Judy, formed their own production company, Undaunted Films, and plan on producing one film per year. First up is the supernatural thriller "Ghostline", which was shot in the Spring and Summer of 2013 and is slated for a 2014 release. Their next project is a full length feature version of their award winning short film, "The Body Bag", entitled "Curse of the Bokor". Show less «
