Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Daniel Maggio was born in Hemet, California and many of his films have been produced there. At the age of 13, he wrote his first screenplay, THE UNKNOWN SUPER HERO which was directed by his teacher/mentor Jimbo Marshall and produced through his middle school. The film premiered at the Temecula International Film Festival and that screening solidified Daniel's lifelong pursuit of filmmaking.

At 17, he directed his first feature film, BROSIS. It's the story of a brother and sister who unknowingly start dating each other over the internet. He attended San José State University where he received degrees in Film + Theatre. While attending SJSU, he directed multiple award winning short films (JIMBO, ELDER ANDERSON, ANTIQUE IMAGINATION). It is estimated that he drank over 400 cans of Tecate during his collegiate career.

Daniel is a member of the indie folk-rock collective HIPPIE CREAM and has directed multiple short films and features for the band. MARTY'S MAGNIFICENT DAY-GLO DREAM-A-THON is a feature length sci-fi musical featuring original music from the band (think "Rock N' Roll High School" meets "Inception" meets "Forbidden Zone.") RADICAL PARADE is a feature length documentary chronicling the band's 20 year history, highlighting the best and worst of their 300 song catalog. He has produced the band's last 5 albums.

In 2014, Maggio directed THE GLORY HOLE for Dan Savage's Hump Fest. The 4 minute short tells the true story of how Jeff and Cosgrove fell in love at a San Francisco glory hole in the early 90's. The film won the Grand Jury Prize at Hump, screened at FRAMELINE40, and is currently distributed through Wolfe Video. He worked on the epic video game documentary, EARTHBOUND USA, as an editor, sound designer, and actor.

He is the co-founder of the Hemet Film Festival, hosted at the Historic Hemet Theatre.
