It’s set in a broken-down future, after the great collapse and people just try to survive in this savage world. Often placing extraordinary circumstances into real-life situations, Kruger finds great pleasure in contrasting big concepts with the rawness of human behavior and emotion while placing special emphasis on the aesthetic of his work. As time passed, I new Chris was starting up production with Last Broken Darkness and we ended up chatting again. Berlin was very cool place. With his mind set on his first feature film, he has several scripts in development and exciting collaborations in the pipeline. So that was a big surprise and I just had fun with both characters, especially Loneman – some crazy scenes in the film. Dani: Speaking of “Doors”, which has won several awards, including Best Music Video of the Year in 2015 at the SAMAs (South African Music Awards), as well as being nominated (also in 2015) for Best Music Video of the Year at the MTV Africa Music Awards, it was recently announced that it was selected by the London Golden Scout International Film Festival. He also managed to claim the top 3 spots in MTV Africa’s annual music video awards in 2013. Broadening his horizons to the commercial world, Kruger has spent the last year creating compelling content for global brands like Toyota. Ryan: Well I mainly consider myself an actor/director. I ended up making Ghost English (nationality, he means) just to make it very abstract from Loneman. Here is the link to the teaser trailer/proof of concept for Edge of Chaos – written by Ryan and Benedikt Sebastian:  www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tj1B8QnLwkw. It’s because of that video and song that Prime Circle is one of my favorite bands, and you’ve become someone I consider a dear friend. Dani: In December 2016, you went to Germany on a “tour” to talk about your directing, music videos and film. All Rights Reserved | © Ryan Kruger | 2018, “I could never see myself doing anything other than what I’m doing right now”. Today, he is known as the top music video director in South Africa and has conceptualized and directed over 70 music videos for SA’s most prolific artists. Ryan: It’s a hard one to answer – just something I could sink my teeth into. Tell us about it. (Dani note: I hear you on that one, Ry, from one storyteller to another). ( Log Out /  Dani: I also know that you’ve been working on what you described to me as your “passion project”. To fill his time he took on a personal project: a gritty reality-type show called GTV! Kruger went to the University of Missouri-Columbia in 2003 and graduated in 2007 with a Bachelor of Journalism Field Of Study Radio and Television. ( Log Out /  If memory serves me correctly, it all started with a “little” music video you directed for the South African band Prime Circle called “Doors” – which is mentioned in your Bio above. Ryan: Has to be a FEATURE FILM – I’m putting all my eggs in one basket at the moment. Ryan Kruger, Actor: Warrior. Not being one to stand still, Ryan quickly made his connections while studying and approached bands to direct their music videos. Call 07 3238 5400 for more information. That’s a hard one – all I do is work; need to get a hobbie, I think. So few days later, I sent a self tape for both roles. Ryan: The great thing about my directing is that I create my own stories and characters, which I love. I truly believe we lost a lot in cinema over the years. Ryan Kruger 11Alive, Atlanta, Georgia. Ryan: Well, winning the SAMA for Best Video Director of the Year was great and getting a MTV nomination was great also. Favorite non-work related thing you like to do? Effortlessly switching from gritty, edgy and dark to commercial and clean-cut, Ryan’s strength lies within his adaptability and is constantly striving to perfect his craft by openly exploring different styles. Shifting his focus back to acting, Ryan landed a few small roles on shows like “Shameless” and “Hollyoaks” as well as feature films, taking notes from veterans like academy award winner Danny Boyle on the set of “Millions”. Dani: Personally, besides Doors, one of my other favorite music videos you’ve done is “Soldier” by Monark. Dani:  Lastly, a little fun I like to call “Take Five”: Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/RyanKrugerOfficial/?fref=ts. But, that’s why TV is so much better now.
