Professionally, Mark Grzesiuk has worked in various roles of
production. He has worked on shows for several different networks
including FOX, FOX Sports, MTV, VH1, Nickelodeon, and A & E. Mark’s
passions are for producing and directing. In 2004 he co-produced
with Joe Kingsley, the feature film A Father’s Worth, which is in
the final stages of post-production and is currently seeking
distribution for a domestic DVD release. Currently, Mark is working
to help launch the 2005 LA Femme Film Festival as an Associate
Producer.
Mark believes that the fundamental strength of Road Dog Pictures
can be found in how long each of the members have known one another.
Mark met fellow Road Dog, Joe Kingsley, in third grade when the
teacher assigned him the seat next to “the new kid.” Who would have
guessed 17 years later that they still would be best friends and
working with one another.
Mark attended the Rochester Institute of Technology to study Film
and Video Production. At RIT he met the other two Road Dogs, Rob
LiCalsi and John French, forming an important team of talent. Mark
believes it’s the different individual talents each Road Dog partner
brings to the table which puts them ahead of their competition.
Mark Grzesiuk is excited about launching Road Dog Pictures and
working towards his goal of creating a catalogue of projects that
are all uniquely different but still maintain a worldwide appeal.
