Andrew Ryan Taylor (born September 13, 2005) is an American Filmmaker from Elk Grove, CA. Taylor's interest in filmmaking began upon watching behind-the-scenes DVD material for the film 'Spy Kids 3D: Game Over'. At the age of 12, he began writing his own screenplays, learning the craft as he went along. During his enrollment at Cosumnes River College, Taylor was finally given the means to put his study of film and writing to use. The 2024 short film 'Bystander' would prove to be the first film he would ever write and direct. Taylor is on the autism spectrum, which he has claimed as both blessing and burden. At any given moment, he is working on several creative endeavors.
