My name is Dylan Greenberg. I'm an 18 year old girl and I make my own movies, music and art with help from my friends. I recently have recieved international press in magazines such as Vice, Fangoria, and Pitchfork from the feature film I directed, Dark Prism. I have also released two full length music albums and two previous feature films, Glamarus and Wakers. Although I'm quite young I am already making a name for myself in the art, performance and film world and am trying to make the transition from "underground" to "independent". Dylan Greenberg got an early foothold into the art world; by the time she was 15 she was performing in East Village clubs and dive bars, releasing a full length synth pop album as "Disck" and ending up with a photo spread in NY Times Magazine. When she was 17, she directed her first feature film "Glamarus', produced by veteran art film director and actor Scott Shaw. She followed this with her art-horror film Wakers and then almost immediately began production on another film called Dark Prism, which ended up generating massive press attention in Pitchfork, NME, Flavorwire, SPIN, and the AV Club. Greenberg's style has been compared to Andy Warhol's factory, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, and David Lynch. She has worked with major figures in the entertainment industry such as Mac DeMarco, Matt Katz-Bohen, and Jacob Reynolds, underground art icons like Lloyd Kaufman, Reverend Jen, and Robert Prichard, and up and coming young people such as Sofe Cote, Blessing C.S., Sara Kaiser, Chandani Smith, and Max Husten. Critics have called the films of Greenberg everything from brilliant and nightmarish to awful and headache inducing. Regardless, Greenberg continues to be one of the most prolific young filmmakers and artists and has no plans of quitting anytime soon.
