Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Stephen C. Mitchell's directorial debut was the Grammy-nominated documentary "Talihina Sky: The Story of Kings of Leon" about three-time Grammy winning rock band Kings of Leon. "Talihina Sky" was distributed theatrically in the U.K. and aired on Showtime Networks in North America after premiering at international film festivals, including 2011 Tribeca Film Festival and 2012 Edinburg International Film Festival.

Mitchell also directed the ESPN Films documentary "Nixon's National Champs" about the 1969 College Football season when newly-elected President Nixon traveled to the "Game of the Century" so he could name the National Champion on ABC TV. The film features the "voice of college football," Chris Fowler and received the help and support of The Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum.

In the fall of 2015, Mitchell directed Toby Keith's "Neighborhood Sessions," a 1-hour branded content film for State Farm that was produced by Translation LLC / Radical Media and aired in prime time on TBS. Through this program, which also featured former Oklahoma Sooner and Dallas Cowboy Head Coach Barry Switzer, Mitchell became an endorsed member of the Directors Guild of America.

After beginning his career in Nashville, where he signed Grammy-winning producer Andrew Ramsey (India.Arie / John Legend / Robert Randolph) and Nathan and Caleb Followill (Grammy-winning Kings of Leon) to music publishing deals, Mitchell served in the A&R Department for Atlantic Records (New York) starting in 2003.

With a shift toward film and TV in 2005, Mitchell studied at the Bruce Ornstein Acting Workshop in NYC and attended numerous Robert McKee Story seminars. He served as Campaign Director for "Only By the Night: Home Movies," a series of online clips for Kings of Leon's fourth album release (6 million views) and directed their music video 'Crawl' in 2008, along with 'Frontier City' that was released in 2018.

Mitchell directed the documentary "Summerville" about John McKissick, the "winningest" coach in American football history and his Green Wave high school team that captured his 600th career win. He also produced with RSA Films the Brandblack fashion product launch video short "FUTURELEGENDS," which starred NBA player Jamal Crawford.

Mitchell has also acted in bit parts on 'Louie' (FX), 'Broad City' (Comedy Central), and 'Paterno' (HBO) directed by Barry Levinson, and appeared as himself on ESPN, 'Last Call with Carson Daly' (NBC), 'Good Day New York,' and 'The Adam Carolla Show.'
