Ryder Harrison Houston is an American filmmaker and musician born and raised in a suburb just outside of Dallas, Texas called Frisco. As a child, he spent time watching the behind-the-scenes of his favorite movies and tracing stills from Disney cartoons. Although he ultimately lost interest in the pursuit of animation, this curious, artistic aptitude carried him through his theatrical endeavors in early adolescence and eventually led him to develop his lifelong passion for filmmaking.
Having just turned 19 in May of 2020, Houston released his first feature film "Rapture in Blue" to Prime Video, which was immediately discovered and released to DVD by provocative queer label Altered Innocence. On top of writing, shooting, and directing the film by himself, Houston also composed the original score including the film's haunting theme "Wine (A Sea Of Future)" performed by frequent collaborator Ariana Kelly.
Houston's film work has been described by some as a bizarre amalgamation of the surrealist intuitions of David Lynch and the razor sharp, punk attitude of new-queer pioneers like Gregg Araki and Gus Van Sant. Sonically, he is most inspired by the yearning compositions of Pino Donaggio and Lynch collaborator Angelo Badalamenti- musicians, like Houston, unashamed of blending crooning, classical bombast with lush, contemporary technologies.- Taylor Pope was born on 28 May 1981 in Plano, Texas, USA. He is an actor, known for Wishbone (1995).
