So fun. Our trailer has been selected for the @pittsburghmovingpicturefest Trailer Bash 2026! Catch it on the big screen in one of the best cities in the world on May 30! Trailer cut by @robviscardis !!!

Had a blast in Sudbury @junctionnorthff and the really great @sudburyindiecinema . I am really impressed and inspired by what they’ve accomplished with this festival and cinema! Amazing screening and q&a with @amissingpeace.ca . Thanks to @jimmylocm for the snaps. Awesome meeting you! I think the film and @garrett.gilbart ’s art really resonated with the Sudbury audience, another really interesting post industrial place. The Townehouse is still the same. Awesome to meet up with @mitchbcreative 🤙 both not pictured… the nickle is, in fact, big.

I'll be heading to Sudbury in a few weeks to attend a screening of Echoes in Steel at @junctionnorthff @sudburyindiecinema ! Thanks to the programmers for selecting the film. Can't wait to check out the festival and the other films.

The Border at Tolstoi - Trailer A short film by Bob Kotyk @bobkotyk Trailer by Rob Viscardis @robviscardis Title design by Matthew Hoffman @matthewjhoffman FULL TRAILER HERE: /1151065004/9593c861f1?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci @shevchenkofoundation @manitobafilmmusic @festivalformula @rmofstuartburn @municipalityofemersonfranklin

My new short doc Echoes in Steel will be premiering @reframefilmfestival FRI, JAN 30 at 4:45PM at Showplace in Peterborough! I'm very excited to share this film that centres on @garrett.gilbart and that has a brilliant original score by @robmcallister.music Garrett carves metal and other found industrial materials into evocative sculptural forms, embedded with the plants, land, and histories of the places where the materials were found. When his long-favoured vintage car scrapyard closes for environmental remediation, Garrett must let go of a defining source of inspiration and material for one body of his work. Like steel itself—ever decaying and transforming—Garrett accepts his own continued transformation as an artist. Set within a post-industrial landscape that evokes echoes of labour, mass production, and decay, the film reflects on our attachment to objects and our complicated relationship to the land they return to. #documentary #indiefilm #cinematography #director #anamorphic

Happy Halloween! Here is a few clips from something exciting I’ve been working on this spooky season: a behind-the-scenes documentary about the people who bring @phantom__farm to life, and our fascination with fear. 👻

We had an incredible week on the road capturing everything that makes Northern Ontario an absolute gem on this big beautiful planet! It’s not just the rugged cliffs on the shores of our Great Lakes, the tall pines towering over winding forest trails, the access to nature, wildlife and fresh air, or even the northern hospitality of the people; it’s the interconnectedness of all these things that encompasses the true spirit of the North. Thanks to @destinationnorthernontario for the opportunity to capture it, and to the vendors across the region that make it such a tourism hotspot. We’re beyond stoked to share some incredible videos shortly! @splitrailbrewingco , @stillwater_fishing , @forestthecanoe , @velorution_bike_ski , @thrivetours , @killarneyairservices , @northernskiesresort , @temagamioutfittingco , @aldopescatore , @thesoflypodcast , @manitoulinecopark #tourismrocks

This has been a wild month, y'all! With only three days left in our Kickstarter campaign we are just overwhelmed with the support we've received and the buzz that is building around this film. As our campaign month draws to a close, we've received a few requests now from donors wishing not to create Kickstarter accounts. If you'd still like to donate, and prefer to skip the platform, you can back us directly by sending an E-transfer to EnkiduFilm [at] gmail [dot] com We love the work we do! Enkidu reimagines one of humanity’s oldest stories as a call to reconnect—with the Earth, with balance, with ancient truths. It invites us to rethink the moral stories that define gender, sexuality, and identity—not with judgment, but with empathy, wonder, and truth. And, it casts an eye to the harm isolation and disconnection can cause. By weaving ancient wisdom into a cinematic narrative, the film offers a powerfully emotional entry point into environmental awareness, inspiring viewers to be guided in their search for balance and understanding by things that are bigger, deeper and older than we are. We believe storytelling has the power to heal. To provoke. To guide.   🌿 Help us bring Enkidu to life. 👉 Kickstarter link in bio.   #EnvironmentalFilm #NatureFilm #ClimateStorytelling #ReconnectWithNature #IndieFilm #shortfilm #setlife ##SetDesign ##poetlife #filmmaker #filmmaking #actor #ittakesavillage #Ptbo #film #shortfilm #horror #ancient #cave ##ptbokawartha

Meet Rob Viscardis – our Cinematographer With a background in music videos, docs, and commercial work, Rob brings a sharp eye and a deep sense of mood and authenticity to Enkidu. He's shot Canada Council–funded films, served as DoP on feature-length docs, and thrives in fast-paced, high-stakes environments—like shooting in a pitch-black cave. His goal? Craft haunting, beautiful visuals that elevate the story. 🎥 Only 6 days left to help Rob and the rest of the team bring this ancient tale to the screen. 👉 Support us on Kickstarter — link in bio. #FilmCrew #MeetTheTeam #BehindTheScenes #IndieFilmmakers #FilmmakerLife #CinematographyLife #Ptbo #ptbokawartha #indiefilm #kickstarter #canadianfilmmakers #peterborough

Launching today! The Kickstarter campaign to support Enkidu the film. A fantasy horror take on the Epic of Gilgamesh. We've been dreaming up something really special over the last few months and we need your help to make it a reality. We're raising $4,200 over the next month to make a psychological horror film based on The Epic of Gilgamesh. Explore the myth like you never have before – through the tormented heart and mind of Enkidu the lost. Evocative music and incredible practical effects bring to life a new vision of Enkidu, companion of Gilgamesh. In this artistic allegory for mental illness and depression – Enkidu traps himself in the tortuous forgetful depths of Purgatory, enticed by the freedom of the Dream House.
