Greg Donis Biography Showrunner / Director

LA-based Executive Producer/Showrunner/Director, Greg Donis has over 20 years of solid experience in television development and production, working with clients such as the Discovery Channel, HGTV, MTV, FYI, A&E, eOne, Blue Ant Media, Samsung and Fox Kids to name a few. This lengthy tenure has afforded him the opportunity to branch out across various mediums ranging from animation to reality series, and has proven him to be a top-notch leader, responsible for the creative and business oversight of multiple well-received programs.

Early in his career, Donis was a key member of the creative team that produced the first-ever all-CGI-animated cartoon TV series "Reboot", garnering multiple awards including a Worldfest-Houston Gold Medal. This was followed by "Madden NFL"; the highest selling sports game title of the year. His diverse background includes producing and directing original reality programs, animated & youth programs, a ground-breaking Virtual Reality Series, hit gaming titles and the 2010 Winter Olympic Games with a viewership record of 3.8 billion. Donis'solid track record includes multiple award nominations for the A&E/FYI series "Cabin Truckers" (Best Program & Direction in a Reality/Lifestyle and Series) - airing in 112 countries and Blue Ant Media's #3 best-selling series out of 284, a 2013 CSA Best Direction Award Nomination (Reality/Lifestyle and Series) for the Discovery Channel series "Saw Dogs" which topped Discovery's primetime average, and the well-received character-driven MTV Docudrama "Livin' Loud", which he Created, Produced and Directed.

Donis' diverse experience has made him a sought-out candidate for the ever-expanding world of reality television production. He's known for his on-point-producing overseeing every aspect of a project from development through final delivery (international and domestic programming), meticulous preparation, his knack for building original storylines out of virtually nothing at times and delivering content with the highest production value. Most recently, Donis was commissioned by Imagination Park Entertainment on a 6-part series with UFC Champion Michael Bisping.
