APT Media

01/21/2025

It is with mixed emotions I am closing down the Ryan Hall Productions and APT Media website, effective this upcoming Saturday. The social media pages will be up for a little longer.

The good news is that something exciting is coming later in 2025!
Stay tuned, and in the meantime follow me and my work on instagram:

TEN years ago today the spirit of Action Packed Thriller (A.P.T.) Media was born with the short film that started it all - “Operation X-Treme” featuring nerf guns, a fallen tree, tacky T-shirts and flip-flops, and the greatest cliffhanger in cinema history ;). We had no script and no plan, just started moving the camera around and building an action sequence between two expert snipers and...swordsmen? 

“Operation: X-Treme” became the inspiration for our first organized, scripted film “Operation: Endgame” that we made the following year. We’re so thankful for the journey this has turned into and for our friends that have been on it with us.

In honor of APT Media's 10th(!) anniversary we will be sharing some photos and behind the scenes stories from the adventures of producing our films during the summers of 2011-17.
Our first day of filming Operation: Endgame was May 26, 2012, and our first day of principal photography on Cityscape was June 1, 2017, both at the exact same location (North Mississippi Regional Park). In fact all three of our long form film projects have been partially shot here.

to Z-Fest! This time last year, we were screening “Give Thanks,” a post-apocalyptic horror thriller that we created as part of the 2020 Z-Fest Festival. In “Give Thanks,” Mira lives a mundane life, trapped within four walls where each day she longs to be free.

We had a great time filming this last year and wanted to finally share it with all of you. Thank you to our amazing cast and crew who made this film possible! (video link is in the comments below/bio on IG)

Please note: This film was written, produced, and screened prior to the Covid-19 pandemic.
