Taz Goldstein (www.tazgoldstein.com) is a Los Angeles-based film and television director who launched Hand Held Hollywood in 2009 to satisfy his own filmmaking and gadget addictions. Goldstein’s work has spanned nearly every medium. His award winning films have been showcased at festivals from Savannah to Singapore. His commercial directing garnered the Radius Award at the Cannes International Advertising Festival, and his television work has been seen by more than 30 million viewers (HBO Networks, Fox Television Studios, Food Network, MTV, FX and the Prime Time Emmy Awards).

Goldstein enjoys nothing more than sharing what he’s learned. He lectures regularly at industry events (including NAB, MacWorld, SuperMeet, The Showbiz Expo and the DV Expo), and has recently authored Hand Held Hollywood’s Filmmaking with the iPad & iPhone for Peachpit Press (published in December 2012). Goldstein has served as a Digital Media Net (DMN) forum leader, hosted the After Effects Boot Camp training series, and is a former faculty member at the American Film Institute.
