Jet Set Productions announced that it has tapped Chris Steele as an exclusive producer and director for the 12-year old gay production studio.
Steele formerly directed for Falcon Studios and helmed many films including “The Velvet Mafia,” “Taking Flight” and “Cross Country.”

“Having Chris on board creates the perfect synergy for our companies creativity and growth,” said Mark Hovanec, Jet Set’s executive in charge of production. “Chris brings a level of production skill that rivals my friends in the broadcast industry.”

In addition to his directing, Steele has been credited with discovering stars Eric Rhodes, Roman Heart and Derrick Vineyard. Noted for its jock-themed productions Steel is tasked with expanding the Jet Set Brat Pack label.

“This is a case of perfect timing,” said Nick Boyias, CEO of Marina Pacific, Jet Set’s distributor. “Jet Set has begun an aggressive production schedule and Chris, working with Mark, gives us a solid foundation to produce quality films that the Jet Set audience has grown to expect.”
