David W Ross is a multi-talented individual, renowned for his exceptional acting, writing, and film producing skills. His notable appearance in the Sundance Film Festival's indie sensation Quinceañera (Echo Park LA) garnered widespread recognition, as it won the prestigious Grand Jury Prize and Audience Award, in addition to receiving a Spirit Award, a GLAAD Media Award, the Humanitas Award, and a feature at the Berlin Film Festival.
Ross's own film, I Do, which he wrote, produced, and starred in, has earned an impressive 13 awards at over 35 film festivals worldwide in 2012/13, including the "Best of the Fest" award at the Palm Springs International Film Festival. Notably, the film's success was achieved through a successful crowdfunding campaign, allowing it to be released theatrically in the U.S. and on DVD, iTunes, and VoD internationally.
Ross's accomplishments didn't go unnoticed, as he received two Rising Star Awards, Best Screenplay, and the Jack Law Award for his work on I Do. Prior to his success in the film industry, Ross gained recognition as a teen idol in the 90s British boy-band Bad Boys Inc. The group released their debut self-titled album, featuring five Top 20 hits, including the Top 10 smash, "More to this World."
Recently, Ross's entrepreneurial spirit has led to the creation of the iPhone app Slatable, which enables actors to create professional self-tape auditions. The app has quickly gained popularity among actors, reps, and casting directors in over 45 countries and is widely used to cast film, TV, and stage productions.
