Erik Klassen

Actor/Director/Writer/Editor/Cameraman/Producer

~Bio~
One of the 3 founders of Bloomin' Films, Erik was a pivotal member of Bloomin' Films from day one. The owner of MonkeyTaco Studios, he is THE essential person in the cast of any movie. His acting is best described as hilarious, with the right conditions he can bring laughs out of anyone. Acting is low on Erik's resume though, his main talent is behind the camera. He produced almost all movies done by Bloomin' Films, and is a prominant writer, from movies to his own stories. Though often lazy, when he wants a movie to be done it gets done, if not by himself, then through someone else. Erik's involvement in a film can make or break it. Besides film, his interests lie in Journalism, which is his major in college.

Favorite Movie: Fight Club
Favorite Band: Nine Inch Nails
Favorite Book: Jennifer Government
Favorite Bloomin' Film: Ringy
