There are Promises to Keep…

Smoking Polar Bear Productions is a promise made to a soul-mate who died far sooner than what anyone would deem fair. The promise being to never stop telling stories in every medium possible till you “MAKE IT BIG”…

Founder Ray Holdridge

Director & Writer

Ray Holdridge first found his voice in radio and voice-over which led him to creating his own stories as a writer and director. Ray’s fandom for anime, sci-fi/fantasy literature and mythology combined with his blue collar background and dramatic family history has created a unique voice that focuses on the importance of telling a story filled with real human emotion and experience but through an unexpected yet creative lens.
