George Kottaridis, CEO

      Having studied at the UK Screen Acting Academy in Glasgow, initially a professional actor and stunt performer, George Kottaridis quickly branched out to screenwriting, directing and producing through his involvement in the film industry. Following his participation in numerous seminars at the Burt Reynolds Institute for Film and Theatre, he went on to attend & successfully complete workshops under Harry Mastrogeorge and Danny Glover. To augment the extensive knowledge & experience he gained in stunts, martial arts & fight choreography, George also obtained additional degrees in those fields through attending intensive courses at NU Boyana Film Studios in Sofia, Shoreline Studios in Vancouver and Kansai Action Actors in Osaka. 

      Establishing a strong artistic presence in the Bahamas, he became an honorable member among the founders of the Bassa Bahamas Screen and Stage Association, a guilt-free union created in 2016. His involvement in the local industry, provided him with the opportunity to work alongside Settlers Cove Production, as well as with director & DOP N.L. Aubrey Smith, a crucial partnership that gave him invaluable knowledge on producing and directing films.  In 2017, he wrote his first feature-length screenplay and teamed up with American novelist & screenwriter Lee Chavis to fully develop the project, “Never Again”, which ultimately became a complete package for investment.

      Following a 2020 business trip to Washington D.C., he met DOP Aris Gavriilidis through their representative. Ever since, they have joined forces in several cinematic efforts in Greece, with many more to come in the UK, Europe and the United States of America.
