Eddy Fernandez Jr.

Eddy Fernandez Jr. was born in Miami to Eddy Fernandez and Evette Fernandez. From an early age he exhibited an outgoing personality and an active imagination. He would often day dream and talk about his ideas to whomever would listen (close family members with splitting headaches would say that there was only so much listening they could do). He never dropped his daily need to indulge his flights of fancy and as he grew up he quickly realized that he had a knack for and loved to tell stories. Then as a teenager approaching his adult years, Eddy developed a close relationship with his uncle Luis who had been an avid movie and television fan for years. When Eddy's passion for storytelling met his uncle's love of everything filmed, he knew he had found his future: filmmaking. But how to get there from Miami, Florida, arguably one of the farthest places in the United States culturally and geographically from Hollywood. Since then, Eddy has worked toward achieving this goal, first landing an assistant position at an up-and-coming production house (at the time) in Miami. The story of how the job came to fruition (much like Eddy's career as a whole) is a combination of luck, talent, charm, knowledge and just plain being at the right place at the right time. During that time period, Eddy was a home theater installation tech at Best Buy. He had actually given his two week notice and was not even sure if he would go into work on his last day. But he decided at the last minute not to call in sick. It was one of the best choices he would ever make because his very last installation was at the home of a recent Florida transplant and award-winning Television producer Chris Sloan. Chris saw a potential in Eddy that convinced him to take a risk and offer him a position in his new company, 2C Media. Chris's mentorship helped Eddy grow greatly in his profession. During his two years at 2C Media, Eddy worked his way from Assistant, to Associate Producer to Writer/Producer and ultimately Preditor (Writer/Producer/Editor and sometimes shooter). In 2007, Eddy was awarded 3 BRONZE TELLY AWARDS for his work on 'Don't Go Nucular' which was produced for the AOL/WB streaming TV service 'In2TV' (think of it as the predecessor to Hulu).

In 2007, Eddy decided to take a risk and make a move to Los Angeles. His first job in the big city would be with Warner Bros. subsidiary Telepictures on a brand new website, Momlogic. Eddy was hired as a Preditor to produce, edit, post and sometimes shoot videos for the site.
