Biography
Nathan Blair has loved movies his whole life. As a child of the 80's, his favorite move of all time is "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark." He always fantasized about making movies but thought it too impossible. God disagreed. While working as a graphic designer, God began calling him to become a filmmaker. The calling excited and terrified him which eventually led to a time of fasting and prayer. As he tells it, "God only made me wait 2 meals thankfully." He was sitting at his kitchen table when God spoke clearly with a simple word, "Go." With 5 feature films (A Perfect Chord, 2nd Greatest, A High School Story, SCION, Sleeper Agent) to his credit as writer, director, cinematographer and editor, Nathan has cultivated his calling to create high level crossover films with a Christ centered message. It has been said that he's a "force to reckon with" in the faith-based. Recently, Nathan has become the Executive Director of Cross Wind Productions a 501(c)3 ministry where the next generation of Christian filmmakers are inspired, encouraged and trained, all with a Christian worldview. Nathan has said "While Christian filmmakers are producing new content that speaks to adults, Hollywood works tirelessly to capture the hearts and minds of our children." Cross Wind is a place where teens can make a movie for teens. Where they can speak a language, they want to hear.
