To set a stage for himself, the producer moved to Notre Dame to pursue film studies in 2010. Swift participated in a theatrical play, Six Characters in Search of an Author, during his time at the campus. Later, Austin participated in yet another famous play, Dead Man’s Cell Phone Call, which turned out to be a major hit.
