BIO:

Raised in a small town south of Detroit, Kraig found an interest in filmmaking early on. "Growing up the youngest of seven kids handed down all kinds of pop culture."  That interest grew and eventually led Kraig to enroll in his high school's Television & Radio Program. After getting his Diploma, Swisher packed his bags for Florida. The study of cinematography became his calling, and at Full Sail University he learned the craft of 35mm & 16mm motion-picture film. After graduating with a BS in 2008, Kraig joined the workforce and never looked back.

Since entering the industry, Kraig has served as Director of Photography on 9 feature films. Plus, a variety of commercials, music videos, live events and shorts. He has also earned a successful career as a Focus Puller, and has been a member of the IATSE Local 600 Camera Union since 2015.  Job experiences in the field cast a wide range of productions... "From no-budget indies, to Hollywood shows shooting around the globe... I've worked in both worlds, and I try take the best of them and apply it to whatever the Director, story and production requires."
