My resume on IMDb
John Birmingham loves God and Jesus more than he loves anyone. God loves you more than anyone loves you, so we are supposed to love God in return more than we love anyone. All the love is from God. God is love. We should love God first, then Jesus. Then we love and honor our husband or wife who God brought us together with, or if we are not married we love our mother and father after God and Jesus, or if we are in a way on our own without our mother and father or without a husband or wife, we love others on earth. Fornication and adultery is bad and wrong. John learned this from the Bible. We are supposed to learn as much as we can about God and Jesus and try to be Jesus like. Jesus is about kindness to others. John loves God, Jesus and his children Rowan, Ivan and Ayla and has done his best to raise them. John Birmingham is a filmmaker, musician and actor. He is really good at both the creative and technical side of making movies, music and videos.

He also writes his own original music.

John grew up in Roanoke, Virginia, where he lived for God and Jesus and pursued music, art, writing and filmmaking throughout childhood. John was privileged by God with everything good that ever happened to him. John was given abilities by God and worked hard to star in or direct films and videos with Ed Asner, Pauly Shore and hundreds of other famous people and friends who have been successful in entertainment. At age 19 John moved to Los Angeles on his own to pursue entertainment industry work. While in Los Angeles, John worked as a production designer for Full Moon Pictures, Tempe Entertainment and worked on many indy and big budget films, was producer, writer, director of films, and graduated Loyola Marymount University with a B.A. in Screenwriting in 2000 and Chapman University with a M.F.A. in Film Production in 2005. At Chapman University John wrote/directed/produced his first feature film that he also starred in, One Nation Under God, that was retitled Crazy Animal. One of John's short films, Tir Nan Og, that he produced and edited, won a Young Artist award in 2002 alongside Hillary Duff, Frankie Muniz and all other major studio movies and television shows.

Danica married John a few years after that and they had their honeymoon at the Sundance Film Festival and John' movie Crazy Animal premiered at Tromadance in the "secret screenings" at Park City. A higher budget short film John produced, production designed and edited, that Danica was the filmmaker of as writer, director and producer, titled Imagination, also was screened at dozens of international film festivals and won awards in the early 2000s while John was living in Los Angeles. After John did a bunch of movies in Los Angeles, he settled back to his home town in Virginia where he got married to Danica DeCosto and had 3 children, Rowan, Ivan and Ayla. Together his children Rowan, Ivan and Ayla have more than a billion views on Youtube on regular widescreen videos, not the trendy newer vertical videos less than 60 seconds. Before moving home to Virginia in 2005, John edited the film Imagination back in his early 20s in the early 2000s and it finished on a 35mm print to play in theaters before movies had switched to video projection. Most of being in L.A. John spent going to school. He also worked as a production designer and many other jobs on movies in L.A., mostly indy films, some high budget with A-list actors, a SAG movie John was producer on, Plan 9, the remake of Ed Wood's Plan 9 From Outerspace by writer director John Johnson that stars Brian Krause, a cameo role by John Birmingham as "Butch," and many other celebrities like The Angry Video Game Nerd. That movie was released in Walmart stores everywhere and most store where you can buy movies in across the world and in the United States in 2015. After working on movies for God and going to film schools in L.A. from 1997 to 2005, John returned to his home town in Virginia in 2005 to marry Danica DeCosto and have 3 children, Rowan Birmingham and Ivan Birmingham and later, Rowan and Ivan's baby sister Ayla DeCosto was born. Rowan, Ivan and Ayla are stars with John and Danica in videos on her Youtube page, where they have all received a great deal of attention, between 4 million and 40 million views per month as of November of 2014 to today. John conceived and stars in Danica's biggest internet video, "Rowan is terrified of Ronald McDonald," which has more than 63 million views as of summer of 2023, more views than Elon Musk's biggest video in 2022. John's work in video and films was also featured on many other channels like Looper's channel with more than 5.7 million subscribers on Youtube and talked about John's movie The Vampires of Zanzibar when they were talking about Jackass actor Brandon DiCamillo in this video that at one time had 20,000,000 views titled "Where is the cast of Jackass now?" that was the biggest Jackass idea online at one time. John's work in videos and movies has also been talked about in many of the biggest ghost Youtube channels like Bizarre Bub with 1.71 million subscribers in their "Scary Comp. V50" video that talks about John and his son Rowan and Danica when his son Rowan saw a ghost as a baby in 2008, in a video that got more than 4 million views. John's work in film and videos is featured many other places in videos online, and of course he wrote, directed, produced and was lead actor in real movies that played film festivals like Troma Dance, were on the home page of Slamdance's website (John's animated short film "Willis"), screened for film exhibitors and buyers by Troma Entertainment at the Cannes Film Festival in Cannes, France (John's films Crazy Animal and Rednecks with Troma Entertainment). John Birmingham is best known for his work writing/directing/producing/starring in/editing and composing the musical numbers for three feature films: Crazy Animal, The Vampires of Zanzibar and Rednecks. John has acted in or been a part of producing dozens of other films, for his filmmaker friends Johnny Johnson of Darkstone Entertainment, Mariah Johnson, Cory Greer, Tracy Lee Staton, Derek Young, Mat and Myron Smith and others. John's feature film The Vampires of Zanzibar that he created with the intent of being a masterpiece film to get his films and acting to the A-list level that he produced right after believing in God with all his soul again and God let him make that movie right after John had found God again at the end of 2006 and God helped him to quit being a real estate agent and make another movie instead with the money he had saved. God had been depressed as a real estate agent in a small town not getting to make movies, and he cried one day in front of the mirror and asked God to please make all the bad feeling go away, and by a miracle John had talked to God and asked him for something for the first time since maybe John was a child, and God listened! God let John quit being a real estate agent and make a movie with the money John had saved. The Vampires of Zanzibar was made by a miracle of God. Of course the movie has sin in it like anything else human beings create on earth, but it was made with a good intent and was a miracle God let John make another movie then, was not easy for John to produce, every detail of the film and responsibility of the film was up to John to get filmed Nan done right, and John would not have been able to create that amazing movie if it was not for the help of the amazing cast and crew, and by a miracle the entire movie got filmed and then he got to edit it and do all post production himself and a work of art was created by John and the cat and crew, The Vampires of Zanzibar, a gift to all of us from God. You can watch trailers of that movie online and John is looking for distribution for the film. His other two feature films, Rednecks and Crazy Animal were distributed by Troma Entertainment. Those 3 movies are real movies that John worked on full time for about 12 years to make those 3 feature length movies. John also has about 100 other feature length videos that may be distributed as kind of reality genre "content" films that John spent a year or two to produce all 100 of those feature length kind of documentaries and is planning to distribute all of his films and videos more now that he made it back from Los Angeles as of Jan 1. 2024. John mostly paid the bills working in real estate, though his Ronald McDonald video that went huge, with total monetized views and subscribers Danica and John got from the video, that one video earned maybe as much as $200,000 for Danica and John. John's feature films sold an estimated 20,000 to 30,000 copies. Working with his mom and dad in real estate funded all three of his feature films, other films, 42 original music videos, also another 2000 or more videos he produced. He had to work way hard on homes from 2005 to 2023, was not easy, had to make up for not working as hard when younger starting in 2015 and wasn't able to put much of a budget into many new films since his last Virginia indy film productions in 2013 (Rednecks) and Animals From Outerspace album and music videos in 2014. He put some budget into his video productions after that and some of his best work in videos and music was filmed after that. John is moving to Los Angeles to act in and write and maybe later be filmmaker of bigger budget original films and other films that other people do where he is an actor. John will continue filming videos unless God has a different plan for any one of us, and God knows that and none of us know what will happen from day to day, but John wants to live a long and good feeling life after what he feels was a difficult time away from his wife and kids and with his videos and films not earning as much money as he would like to and a relentless effort on homes that he feels he didn't get that much money for. John feels he has something to look forward to in Los Angeles with his wife and kids there working in the entertainment industry. No one had really worked in the entertainment industry becoming as big of a celebrity as John and his wife and kids did besides John and his wife and kids. Was not like he was born into an entertainment industry family, but he was raised playing music and being an artist like painting and drawing. John has written, recorded, performed and produced more than 40 music videos. A great deal of John's work can be seen on his Youtube page. John taught himself to sing in his mid twenties and was taught art beginning in childhood by his grandmother who was one of the first female graduates from Pratt's art school in the 1930s. John is a genius using Adobe Photoshop and Final Cut Pro, which he has been using since the year 2000 on Macintosh Computers. Before that he edited on many other editing machines, PC and non-linear editing and also used "Paint" graphic design and art programs since the early 90s. John has filmed thousands of videos and at least roughly recorded more than 200 original songs with a few albums professionally produced that he recorded and produced himself as of 2023. His greatest greatest love are God and Jesus, and on earth he loves Danica and his children Rowan, Ivan and Ayla (he also loves family and friends much more so than any of his work in film or music).
