Rory J. Saper
Rory was born in Buckinghamshire, England on April 3, 1996. He grew up in Beaconsfield with two older sisters and his parents Camilla Saper and Roger Saper. He went to the local primary school Davenies where acting was not a huge part of his life. However, when he left for Harrow boarding school just outside of London, he auditioned for a feature film and got the main part. He realised then that he wanted to pursue a career in acting and so he continued to make short films for two years winning various small competitions. In November 2011, Rory was contacted by a casting assistant who saw his short films on YouTube and asked him to come in for an audition for an independent feature called Rufus which he got the lead role for. He then signed with Olivia Woodward from Curtis Brown Agency and left to film Rufus in Canada in January 2012. 2 years on having finished school, Rory won the minor role of Young Tarzan in David Yates' live-action retelling of Tarzan which was filmed throughout the Summer of 2014.

Based on the life of legendary racer Dale Earnhardt and narrated by Academy Award winning actor Paul Newman, the film became the highest selling sports DVD of all time. Sports Illustrated said, "The film 'Dale' is terrific. It delivers such an intimate look at the driver that it feels as if we've all been invited out to the Earnhardt ranch to watch some home movies. 'Dale' covers it all and it is an enjoyable and enlightening ride." In 2008, Karpf directed The Ride of Their Lives, a film on the history of NASCAR, narrated by Academy Award winner Kevin Costner that aired on the Showtime cable network. Sports Illustrated said , "It's one thing to tell us about NASCAR... it's another to show us... and it's something altogether different to put us right there in the driver's seat. "The Ride of Their Lives" does that and you cannot help but be in utter awe." That same year, Karpf directed the official music video for the film, "Backyard" by Kevin Costner and Modern West.
