Morgan Muscat was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Raised in the populated municipality of Mississauga, Morgan spent a
great portion of his life attending school and working at numerous jobs
there. He grew up with a keen interest in filmmaking and graduated from
Our Lady of Mount Carmel Secondary School in 1998. The following year,
he was accepted into the Faculty of Arts program at York University, a
comprehensive university located in Toronto, and while there majored in
English Media. Following a three-year hiatus, Morgan returned to
further his education by enrolling at Sheridan College, Institute of
Technology and Advanced Learning, in Oakville, Ontario, where he opted
to study something nearer to his heart: filmmaking, within a grueling
three-year program in Media Arts. While there, he was instructed by
many well-known Canadian talents within the film and television
industry.
Morgan began showing interest in filmmaking at a very young age when he started writing stories and scripts for classroom assignments. In the mid-to-late 90s, he joined the local drama club and accepted small acting roles in stage productions such as "The Outsiders", "The Crucible" before landing two vital roles: Willy Loman in "Death of a Salesman", and Michael in "7 Stories". In January 2000, he joined the final season of The Gathering Place, a popular American cooking show, as a production assistant. In 2005, Morgan made the leap into producing short films and also founded Moonlit Road Entertainment. Some of the credits to his name include a slew of short films (Duel, Title Match), mini documentaries (Hurricane Hazel: A Tribute to Hazel McCallion), and work as a production assistant in both film and television, landing opportunities on the popular TV shows "Departures" (2008-2009) and "So You Think You Can Dance Canada" (2010) as well as on independent features such as Six Reasons Why (2008), Black Eve (2010), Burning Daylight (2010), Reviving Ophelia (2010) and There is No Undo (2011). More recently, he is completing work on his new short film as screenwriter and producer, the science fiction drama Severance (2010), as well as a producing gig on the upcoming horror short The Devil Walks Among You (2010).
In 2009, Morgan was awarded the Speak Up! Film Festival SFX Award and became a finalist in the Emerging Media Arts category at the Marty Awards in Mississauga, Ontario. In 2010, Morgan brought home the MARTY Award for Emerging Media Arts, celebrating the talent within the city of Mississauga, as well as purchased the 'dollar baby' rights to adapt the Stephen King short story "Suffer the Little Children".
While still fairly fresh to his surroundings, it is quite obvious that Morgan is a rising talent and his willingness and determination will surely become a great asset in a thriving film and TV career.
