My name is Thomas Royalty. I was born in 1986 in Nashville, Tennessee. Continually pursuing creative endeavors from childhood, I received moderate training in various art mediums including photography, pencil art, painting, and sculpting. While attending Campbellsville University for a completely unrelated degree, I began to shift toward the art and industry of film. In the past four years, I has directed several student films and also competed in two 48 Hour Film Project Competitions, winning honors for Best Sci-Fi Nashville in 2008. I have also found some involvement in various advertising competitions with brands ranging from Doritos to Amazon.com. And, of course, I have ventured onto the screen myself on multiple occasions.

The biggest thing that I have come to value is the art of connection to an audience through film and the chance to make the lives of cast and crew a pleasure while on set. These two things drive every project that I am involved in. I aspire to directing feature-length films for a career. I believe that one can become anything with hard work and dreams to back it up. The only thing to do is to reach for impossible heights with each and every moment of this life.
