Craig Roberts Welch was born January 20, 1969 in Atlanta, Georgia and currently resides in Ocala, Florida. Trading Paint is his first produced screenplay, working in tandem with veteran screenwriter Gary Gerani. Another original script by the duo has been optioned by Hollywood producers twice, and Welch has lent his considerable creative expertise to local film and television projects in Florida. Welch and Gerani are developing more movie scripts and the pilot for a new TV series, the later a racing-themed, character-driven drama reflecting the same attention to detail that made Trading Paint such an authentic and exciting film experience.
