Meet the Guys
Ethan Quintero
At 16 years old, Ethan decided the best way to spend his free time was by screenwriting. With each passing year, he’s developed into a self-taught, award-winning screenwriter. At 17 years old, he, along with his best friend, Conner, merged their dreams and created APAP Productions. Through the years, APAP has grown from a makeshift YouTube page into a legitimate, award-winning production company. Now 21 years old, it is Ethan’s dream to one day write, direct, and produce feature length films with Hollywood-like quality.
Conner Darnell
From a young age Conner had experimented with sound and music, and as he got older this blossomed into a passion for filmmaking and music. With a BM in Sound Recording Technology and a minor in Jazz Studies Conner hopes to one day be able to work in as many aspects of the entertainment industry as possible. Conner hopes to be able to use APAP Productions as a means to one day quench his thirst for creating. APAP Productions has so far pushed Conner to become a better musician, sound engineer, and much more through tons of fun, creative, and entertaining projects.
