Brian Jagger

Co-host of FitBody Focused & Weight Loss warrior on FitBodyRadio, Brian Jagger is an entrepreneur, working actor, writer, marketing consultant and personal trainer.  Jagger’s most recent short film screenplay entitled “The Lottery Ticket” is one of the ten winning scripts for the 14th annual Place Called Sacramento Film festival put on by Access Sacramento.  The film premiered October 6th, 2013 @1pm, at the Crest Theater in Sacramento, California.

In early 2013, Jagger helped co-found the video based social media platform VidGage, a social media platform that allows users to post video updates and uniquely allows followers to comment via video replies created through the platform (commenting with video).  VidGage even allows comments on comments.

As a writer Jagger has previously earned a “Best Original Script” ELLY nomination for his original play “The Interviews” which has been produced by three different theater groups in the Sacramento region since 2009.  Jagger also wrote and helped produce the webseries “Now Hiring” which is loosely based upon the play “The Interviews”.  The series can be viewed online at www.NowHiring.TV

As an actor, Jagger earned his Screen Actors Guild eligibility with a principal role in the Paul Thomas Anderson directed movie “The Master” in a scene opposite Phillip Seymour Hoffman (which was unfortunately cut, but still earned Jagger his SAG-E).  Jagger has also had guest lead or primary supporting roles in four different national television shows and has appeared in over a dozen national television show episodes.  He has also been in several regional television commercials and multiple short films.

Jagger also works as a marketing consultant and promotions specialist helping small businesses as well as artists and athletes with their publicity and promotion.  In addition, Jagger works part-time as a Certified Personal Trainer, something he became after losing over 120lbs.

Weighing in at 316lbs, Brian Jagger knew (and was flat out told by his Doctor) things needed to change.  After losing more than 140lbs, Jagger became inspired by those who found inspiration in his success.  To continue to help and inspire others to get fit, Jagger became an ACE Certified Personal Trainer (CPT).  Jagger currently trains and coaches from Anytime Fitness in Roseville, CA.

Far from easy, and littered along the way with more than the usual amount of difficulty, Jagger has lost the weight with more than a short-story to tell.  Marriage and family lost, medical complications, behavior and personality change, criminal activity… all that and more, Jagger has come through.  Fighting through the negative and focusing on getting “back to old Brian”, Jagger has persevered, gotten healthy, built back his family and dedicated himself to helping others get through the challenge of weight loss and fitness transformation, all while avoiding the pitfalls he encountered.

Now that things are “normal” medically for Jagger, he has earned his CPT and is proud to be helping others in their fitness goals.  He has also begun the foundations for his professional writing and acting career.

Brian came onto Fight 4 Your Life after having met creator Bryan Bachar via mutual colleague Marc Gardner.  Both Brian and Bryan had small roles in Marc’s short film, The Within.  Since then Brian has been in several one studios productions, including landing a role in F4YL.  We’re thrilled to have Mr. Jagger on board and look forward to continuing to build a lasting relationship!

Marc Gardner

Marc grew up in Northern California but has been fortunate enough to have also lived in a variety of other locations, including Los Angeles, Utah and Argentina.  His acting background is made up of many years of experience being on the set, constantly staying active in the field.  Marc has been a part of variety of projects from Hollywood feature films to indie features and shorts, commercials, television productions, industrial shoots and web based projects.

In addition to his time on screen, Marc also provides his talents behind the camera, having played key crew roles in award winning works.  He is a true filmmaker at heart, not simply an actor.  And it’s good to note he has ample experience as a fight coordinator as well.

Mr. Gardner has been performing since elementary school and has been blessed enough to have traveled all over the world to perform as a singer, dancer and actor.  Complementing his goals as an aspiring actor and vocal artist,  Marc has become a well rounded human being.  He spends his days serving as a proud father of five, a personal safety advocate, a self defense trainer and a martial artist, having earned multiple black belts.

Be sure to keep up with Marc’s adventures at MarcGardner.net.  He is also a heavily active with several Facebook groups, posting daily film advice and helpful articles for filmmakers and talent.  Marc’s recent short film The Within has been screened at multiple film festivals around the country and he is currently pursuing turning this project into an ongoing web series.  F4YL creator Bryan Bachar was lucky enough to have had a small role in The Within short and can vouch for its awesomeness.  For more on The Within and other projects of Marc’s, check out Ring22Entertainment.com or The Within Facebook page.

We’re thankful to have Marc aboard Fight 4 Your Life.  A long time supporter, he’s been with us since the F4YL short film in 2012.  And now it’s a family affair, as Marc’s daughter Kaitlyn is also a part of this feature length, large scale production, playing the part of the Karate Girl, aka Cris.  Marc wasn’t able to reprise the same roles he had in the original F4YL short.  But he appropriately enough plays the Karate Girl’s Sensei in the feature.

Thanks again for all your hard work, support, team minded efforts and dedication Marc!
