Austin Film Festival 2019
Charles Kinnane is the eldest of The Kinnane Brothers, an independent film company founded by eight brothers. They are known for their short films starring Kevin James, Sound Guy, NBC's Next Olympic Hopeful, and an award-winning short film, Rigor Mortis.

"When the pandemic caused shut downs in the entertainment industry, Kevin James hatched a plan. Quarantine with the 8 Kinnane Brothers and produce weekly shorts for his YouTube Channel. The Kinnane Brothers: Charles (Director/Writer), Jeffrey Azize (Producer/Writer, brother-in-law), Wil (Producer), Daniel (Director/Cinematographer), Pat (Writer), Brendan (Music Supervisor/Writer), Pete (Editor), John (Writer/VFX). In addition to their production work, John Kinnane (the youngest brother) created @Screenplayed, a website for screenwriters."
