David

David Christensen has insatiable curiosity…and it hasn’t killed him yet. His lifelong interests include theater, the outdoors, horses, audio and video production and music. These interests have been part of his life in some form forever.

When David was a kid, his father, who had a recording studio, brought home a tape recorder. David had a new toy and he hasn’t stopped playing since.

He has a BA from the University of Southern California in Cinema with post graduate work in both Cinema and Business.

And in his life he’s done acting, film production, pro-skiing, outfitting (as in horses), accounting, music performance (voice, guitar, bass, flute, sax and clarinet) and lots of audio. Prior to moving to Port Townsend in 2006, he was on the on the faculty of The Art Institute of Seattle for 13 years in their School of Media. (no surprise.) He was the Technical Director for Centrum for the ’07 season. Centrum produces concerts and other creative activities at Ft. Worden in Port Townsend, WA.

He currently works as an independend producer of music and video. For several years he has been working with the Swedish Pianist Magnus Svensson, producing three CDs with more in the planning stages. The most recent release is Schumann & Kokkonen – Magnus Svensson Piano.

In Spring ’09, he was on the Greek island of Corfu, working for The Silva Project and their equestrian programs.

This last winter ’10 he worked at Wilderness Adventures near George, South Africa as a riding instructor and trail guide, taking riders into the Garden Route Wilderness Area. The horse farm is also the home for the Cossack Stunt Academy where they train horses and riders for stunt riding in shows and films. They have a long list of films they’ve worked on.

Recent media production include videos  for the Schooner Adventuress,  The Silva Project in Greece and two for Wilderness Adventures in South Africa. Click here to view these videos.
