Joey Avena(I)

Based in Atlanta, Joey fell in love with acting at a young age, obsessed with the process of film making as a collaborative art piece. He started developing his skills as an entertainer through children's theater productions, getting comfortable in front of an audience. Having been inspired by behind-the-scenes documentaries on the Raiders of the Lost Ark DVD, he decided to hone his skills through creating home movies with his friends and family. Since 2020, Joey has attended courses to further his understanding of acting as an art form and as a business. He attended Chattahoochee Technical College to pursue a degree in Film & Video Production. Alongside his closest friends, Joey created a production company titled Big Dumb Movie Men. This would serve as his playing field to practice film making from all angles. He learned firsthand the importance that each person holds in crafting a production. Joey Avena is an actor at heart, but he has practical experience is almost every major department of film making.
