My name is Darren, although online I commonly go by DV. I am a student and aspiring low-budget film maker and visual effects artist. Together with my friends, we have worked on several short films, entered and won various photo and video contests and have created an ever-increasing in popularity YouTube channel- dvstudiosproductions.
Starting a few years back with a few computer tutorials, we started DVTutorials which has grown to include hundreds of subscribers and pages on countless social networking sites. We have expanded our topics to include special effects, computers, technology, cameras, software, and DIY film making videos.
Today, DV Studios is a visual effects & video editing studio with many dedicated crew members, actors, and subscribers. We have a lot of professional software and filmmaking hardware as well as green and blue screen studio that enable us to make tutorials and short films to entertain and educate our audience.
