Kevin DiBacco is a distinguished figure in the realms of literature and filmmaking, boasting a prestigious career spanning an impressive 37 years. His journey began with a passion for competitive powerlifting during his youth, and later, he distinguished himself as a decorated Sharp Shooter while serving in the USAF special forces. Kevin’s remarkable journey took a new turn post-military service, where he channeled his intellect, documented at an impressive IQ of 135, into the world of arts, particularly filmmaking.

Kevin’s expertise shines in the creation of intricate and innovative Non-Hollywood feature films, captivating audiences in a remarkable 187 countries. From the late 70s to the present day, he has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to evolving alongside the ever-advancing landscape of film and video production. His mastery extends from the era of motion picture film to the contemporary realm of HD digital equipment. 

Throughout his illustrious career, Kevin has amassed a portfolio that includes directing music videos for major record labels, collaborating with esteemed recording artists, and engaging with renowned broadcasters such as ABC, The Discovery Channel, The History Channel, The Bio Channel, MTV, NBC, and ABC. 

Kevin’s body of work speaks volumes about his talent and dedication, encompassing over 500 professional film and video productions, an impressive 600 broadcast television commercials, 20 music videos (four of which graced MTV), five impactful documentaries, and five globally acclaimed feature films. Each of these endeavors has not only garnered success but also generated substantial profits, a testament to Kevin’s exceptional skill. 

Beyond his prowess in filmmaking, Kevin has added the title of professional author to his illustrious resume. As a published author, he has contributed invaluable insights to the industry with his first three manuscripts, namely “The Real World Guide to Digital Filmmaking 1” published by Keith Publications, “Indie Filmmaking in the REAL WORLD” and “Artist’s Sales Kit,” both published by Urban Viking Publishing, UK. Further literary works, including “HYSOMETRICS,” “The Gabardine Gang,” and “Hold The Power,” are poised to make their mark on the literary landscape.
