About Skyrider Storyworlds
Collin Poseley Founder, Skyrider Storyworlds
A love of performance. A cinematic imagination. An educator’s belief in what people can create together.
The founder

Collin Poseley is the founder of Skyrider Storyworlds—a theater kid turned filmmaker and educator. His work brings the shared experience of theater, the visual possibilities of cinema, and an attention to how people learn and grow into the same creative practice.
Collin studies cinema at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles and holds a Master of Education from California State University, Sacramento. Those paths meet in Skyrider: a production company developing original music-driven worlds across recordings, cinema, performance, and immersive storytelling.
His work includes award-winning original educational content, bringing his interests in storytelling, movement, and learning into his creative practice.
For Collin, developing a production also means developing the conditions around it: collaboration, access, and room for artists to contribute. A world takes shape through the people who write it, sing it, move through it, and bring it to an audience.
Musical direction

Musical Director · Entrepreneur
Nick Almond is a musical director and entrepreneur whose collaboration on One Warm Line helped set Skyrider Storyworlds in motion. Working with Collin, Nick helped architect dozens of songs, shaping the musical foundation of the project.
A versatile instrumentalist with a love of songwriting, Nick works across mandolin, piano, and guitar. Raised in Texas in a European family, he brings classical influences and Western roots to his music.
His contribution to One Warm Line is part of the company’s origin story: a creative partnership that gave the songs structure and the wider vision momentum.

Sacramento roots
Create here.
Perform here.
Build something that lasts.
Sacramento is the creative home of Hidden Tide and central to Collin’s vision for Skyrider. He is bringing his Los Angeles cinema training into a project designed to grow in the region and reach audiences beyond it.
The ambition is a lasting production that can return and evolve. The long-term plan for Hidden Tide places creative development, rehearsals, recordings, music-video production, and live performance in Sacramento.
That vision extends to the people and places around the work: performers, musicians, technicians, designers, filmmakers, rehearsal spaces, and venues. A recurring production can help sustain local creative activity while giving audiences a reason to visit and return.
