Wayne Rose was born in Red Deer, Canada of mixed heritage (First Nation/Native American, Ojibwe), growing up on the family farm in rural Alberta. After graduating from the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology, Wayne began his film and television career in Vancouver, working his way up through the ranks - storyboard artist, stunt performer, actor, assistant director and production manager - always with the goal to direct and produce. It wasn't long before he found himself in New Zealand directing full time 2nd Units on the action/FX heavy series, Hercules - The Legendary Journeys and Xena - Warrior Princess. He has since gone on to direct episodes of hit shows such as Smallville, The 100 and Battlestar Galactica. Battlestar Galactica's "Blood on the Scales", directed by Wayne was named by TV Guide Magazine in June of 2009, one of the Top 100 Television Episodes of All Time. Coming in at Number 43, it was the only episode of the iconic show to be named. Several of Wayne's other Battlestar Galactica projects have been nominated for awards, with his "Razor Flashback Featurette - Free Fall" winning the 2008 Emmy Award for "Outstanding Special Class-Short Format Live-Action Entertainment Program" and his Battlestar Galactica - "Face of the Enemy" Web Series being awarded the 2009 Streamy Award for Best Dramatic Web Series. He is also a recipient of the 2005 George Foster Peabody Award (Significant and Meritorious Achievement in Broadcasting and Cable). Wayne's work ethic and sense of adventure has taken him across the globe, working extensively across Canada, the U.S., New Zealand (where he obtained his New Zealand citizenship, enabling him to work in both New Zealand and Australia), in Qatar, where he produced and directed the first ever international sci-fi/fantasy television series from the Middle East, Medinah and most recently in Thailand and Italy with Blood and Treasure for CBS. Wayne is a member of both the Directors Guild of America and the Directors Guild of Canada. He lives in Los Angeles and holds a U.S. green card.

Wayne Shearer was raised in a rural area of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. After high school he entered the Air Force and became fascinated with computers and technology. He spent much of his life in the computer field as a field engineer and system designer, traveling around the country and across the world. While still holding a love for computers, the business of technology became boring and routine and Wayne left the computer field to become a teacher, teaching high school mathematics and computer technology. One summer, with no summer school to teach, he saw an article in the local newspaper about an independent film being shot in Lancaster County that needed extras. He contacted them on a lark. That film started his third career and, this time, he found his passion. It was the first of several films and TV shows that Wayne worked on, first as an extra, then, as he gained experience, as a principal. Between films he writes songs, mostly country and rock, and is a member of the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI). He still travels to Nashville several times a year to write and "recharge his batteries". Wayne pursues his career in acting, and songwriting, from his home in Philadelphia, PA.
