Founder

Daniel Maze started his professional career as a DJ in the Belgian club scene in the '90s, and soon became one of the top DJs in Belgium , eventually making the transition to music producer. Producing his own brand of dance music, he received several gold and platinum records, including Top 10 hits like “Lights from Above” (1997), “Born in the 70s” (1998) and “Scoop” (1999).

After a decade of success and recognition in the music field, Daniel was ready to embrace his true love -- visual production. He founded MAZEfilms in 2004, offering complete production and post capabilities including sound mixing, DI and CG creation and compositing. As the company quickly found success, Daniel was directing music videos, commercials and corporate videos for many Belgian industry leaders.

His love for directing prompted him to create MAZEcorporate, specifically to handle commercial clientele. This allowed him to focus MAZEfilms on his passion for filmmaking. He produced and directed the fantasy short film, "Eli," in 2005, showcasing cutting-edge special effects and awe-inspiring production design -- with the full workflow and CGI all done in-house by MAZEfilms. The success of "Eli" convinced Daniel to take the next step -- helming a feature-length film.

Daniel's commitment to his true love paid off in 2006, when MAZEfilms became the first Belgian production company ever to raise funds from private investors and then shoot a feature-length film in Hollywood . The resulting horror film, "Cornered!," is truly a one-of-a-kind production. And, as far as Daniel is concerned, this is only the beginning.
