With a passion for film and filmmaking since childhood, Daniel decided to move to California in 2000 with an interest in the film business.After graduating at Cal State Northridge in 2006, he realized that young filmmakers had very little access to industry professionals, and few options for screening their films. And thus, the HollyShorts Film Festival was born. Now in its 18th year and Academy Award Qualifying in 3 categories, HollyShorts has quickly become the most influential short film festival in the World, with Daniel guiding it as Festival Director and lead programmer and the HollyShorts Monthly Screening Series, which takes place each month at the TCL Chinese 6 Theatres.Aside from HollyShorts, Sol also battled daily with domestic exhibitors as a theatrical sales executive at Lionsgate from 2008-2014. Mr. Sol is also the co founder of the premium Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and Apple TV content channel BITPIX (www.bitpixtv.com) along with co-founder of the production company 88th Street (https://www.88thstreetproductions.net).  He proudly serves on the Film Augusta Advisory Board.  Sol is also an Executive Producer of the short films THIRST, currently airing on Hulu, and DESMONDS NOT HERE ANYMORE, and is the Festival Co Founder of the 7th annual Hollywood Comedy Shorts Film Festival.
