In his early teens, Kevin Kerslake embarked on a path to emulate his childhood hero, Bruce (Endless Summer) Brown, making surf, skate and ski/snowboard films throughout his hormonal years. Fortune intervened after college, and Kerslake became one of a handfull of directors responsible for forging the visual identity of the MTV generation, directing award-winning videos for such bands as Nirvana, Green Day, R.E.M., the Rolling Stones, Smashing Pumpkins, Rise Against and the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Kerslake dominated the cutting edge of pop culture, directing and shooting core culture films and documentaries, notably Nirvana: Live! Tonight! Sold Out!, The Ramones: We're Outta Here!, and the long-running film series for electronic music giants Insomniac Events. Kerslake's trendsetting visual style resonates in his commercial work for clients AT&T, Sony Playstation, Coca-Cola, Reebok, Sprite, DC Shoes, Kohler, Puma, Nike and AXE body spray.

For the television medium, Kerslake directed Fallen, one of ABC's highest rated mini-series and two episodes for Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich's sci-fi series The Visitor. He is currently attached to direct J.G. Ballard's Running Wild, starring Samuel L. Jackson, Kristin Scott Thomas and Rosamund Pike.
