Michael Guy Allen began his life in "show-business" as a child, using buckets of toys & a VHS recorder to make stop motion videos with his friends. As a pre-teen he moved onto the stage, singing & dancing in a "boyband". In 2004, with the band days behind him, Michael directed his high school's media production department, which lead him to the source of his passion - the art of storytelling. Unaware of his potential Michael joined the military prior to his graduation in 2005.

While performing his military duties as a Broadcast Journalist Michael worked as a production assistant for a rag-tag film team. During production of one of the team's many short films an impromptu acting exercise left both Michael & the team surprised; he could act. But his newly found career was put on hold when deployed to Afghanistan in 2009 as a Combat Cameraman for Special Forces.

Upon his safe return home in 2010 Michael began again, taking his rightful place in front of the camera. He earned 3 supporting roles & 1 lead role in four independent films, among them are the lowest budget feature to ever screen at Sci-Fi London (Memory Lane) and the 5 Dove Award Winning family film "Doughboy", which put him acting opposite bigscreen-vets like Terry Kiser & Rob Garrison.

2013: Michael Guy Allen's projects are beginning to see daylight with scheduled DVD/VOD releases, pending festival runs, & various forms of distribution.
In light of this, Michael moved to California in the winter of 2013 to further pursue his career, his life, his rightful place in front of the camera.
