Schain joined the movie industry in the early 1970s, directing his then-wife, Cheri Caffaro, in several low-budget exploitation films, including the Ginger trilogy.

In the 1990s, he moved to Utah and went on to produce movies of a more family-oriented nature for the Disney Channel, including High School Musical, Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior, and Read It and Weep. He was the first president of the Motion Picture Association of Utah.
