Owner's Bio

Hello my name is Michael LoPresti, I'm the owner and founder of Praedux and I'm 21 years old. My rather recent but stellar career started in High School where I started working at the Local TV station in News, WWCI TV10. After a few months I left with several months of News Producer credits under my belt. I then entered the Digital Media program at the local college IRSC, then IRCC.

While there I worked for several companies, including the City of Port st. Lucie, edited the program's promotional reel, and helped the instructors make many of the finals for my video classes.

After that I went to the Advanced Film Technology Program at Valencia Community College. While there I learned far too many things to list and worked on three feature films, see right. Unfortunately I had to cut off my time in that wonderful program short when the economy started to contract, and go back to work at the family company, LoPresti Aviation.

While there I was responsible for all video and photography for the company. Including working with legendary aerial stunt coordinator J.W. "Corkey" Fornof, see below. Then in this down economy i decided to breakout and start my own business. I chose to make something new instead of looking for a new job that didn't exist.

Now Praedux has 9 people on staff and we are working on our first major project a TV series called Ringside Road. We start Principle Photography in a week or two. You might of thought me a bit pompous when I called my own career stellar earlier, but what do you think now?
