My reel, 2025.
Hi, I'm Anthony! I practice my lifelong love of filmmaking in amiskwacîwâskahikan, Treaty 6 territory (Edmonton). The deepest goal of my work is to help foster a more just and loving world through artfully told stories that inspire audiences. I draw inspiration from everywhere: friends, strangers, family, nature, history, poetry dance, comics, comedy, and, of course, movies. My favourite filmmakers include Stanley Kubrick, Terrence Malick, Paul Thomas Anderson, Andrea Arnold, Allan King, Sarah Polley, and Andrei Tarkovsky. Themes I explore in my work include culture clash, intersectionality, dystopia, community in unlikely places, and love at the end of the world. My favourite thing about filmmaking is that its the ultimate team sport: a group of people with diverse skills, talents, ways of being coming together to work collaboratively toward a common goal. Filmmaking is one of the most tangible and beautiful experiences of real community, however brief, that one can have. The relationships I've made with my filmmaking teammates remain some of the best friendships in my life.
