MINI-BIO

DEREN P. ABRAM began his career as a student at Indiana University’s Department of Theatre.  While continuing his Master’s Degree (MFA Theatre) in 1994 at IU, Deren worked on various theatrical and film productions and soon moved to Hollywood to begin on the HBO television series Tales from the Crypt followed by a continued variety of other projects in TV and Film.

In 1998, Deren formed his own company, Film Pharm, Inc.-- where he continues to serve as the company’s Visual Supervisor and C.E.O.-- working for various TV projects including ESPY Awards, X-Games, Food Network’s “Everyday Italian” and ABC Sports/ NFL’s Monday Night Football-- for which he won an EMMY (2003) and was twice nominated in 2004. Other clients include History Channel, Fox Movie Channel, Vons/ Safeway, and Southern California Edison, Votre Vu, ESPN, ABC Sports and Disney, to name a few.

After a decade of working in Film & Television, Deren began creating his own film, television and video projects. Current film releases include: “According to Dom” starring Dom DeLuise, Burt Reynolds, Dick Van Patten, Charles Durning, David DeLuise, Jeffrey Ross and many others! “According to Dom” has recently been entered into the Motion Picture Academy’s Biographical and Memorial archives. Dom DeLuise and Deren Abram were dear friends and collaborated on many projects.

Also recently released in December of 2009 is “ClarkWORLD” starring Jon Voight, Kim Cattrall, Peter Billingsley, Mary Steenburgen, Denise Richards, John Saxon, Scott Baio and many other incredible Talents. “ClarkWORLD” was ranked #11 in VOD during the competitive Holiday slots and is expected to reach an even larger audience during the holiday season of 2010. Mothers Against Drunk Driving has contracted Film Pharm Productions to create their 2010 Holiday Campaign that's built entirely around “ClarkWORLD”. This ClarkWORLD campaign will dominate through 2015.

"ClarkWORLD" and “According to Dom” are both represented for worldwide digital release by Cinetic Rights Management and DVD release through Passion River Films. Deren and Film Pharm Productions have also developed a successful distribution platform when traditional platforms are not available.

Deren writes, produces, directs, and edits, and is currently developing two major projects slated to begin production in late 2010. Deren now resides in Denver, Colorado with his wife and two children... and loves it.
