Editor, Writer, and Director in Los Angeles. Current wizard of conjuring content for Transformative Learning Inc.
The obligatory director's hand gesture of directing, picture. That’s me pointing.
Intro
My passion for compelling storytelling has spirited me from the frosty Great White North (Toronto) to the sun-drenched beaches of LA, where I risk igniting my alabaster skin in a burst of flames, but how those sparkling SoCal sunsets dancing across the ocean are so worth it. This passion has connected me with exceptional and driven individuals, inspiring me to hone, refine and evolve my craft. My love for storytelling has found expression through a kaleidoscope of mediums, from painting a pretty picture through the camera’s lens to the precision of pacing and perspective in editing, from the visionary scope of directing to the imaginative realm of writing. And it all derives from my desire to produce work that engages, captivates, and entertains. I’m eager to bring my passion, expertise, and dedication to the next project. Let’s make magic happen!
Work
Three foundational pillars define my professional strengths: integrity, versatility, and honesty. I honestly care about my work, aiming to create the best product possible, not just for a paycheck. Yes, money is great, but I don't simply work to live—I work to work. As a versatile artist, I can not only conceptualize a vision but also execute it on multiple levels. The moniker of 'one-man-band' suits me, as many choose to collaborate with me not only for my wit and charm or humble brags, but because I bring a wealth of skills to the table. Integrity is paramount in my work. Pride in what I do compels me to maintain high standards, solve problems effectively, and always go the extra mile. Despite what some may assume about pride, for me, it's less about ego and more about striving for excellence in my work. These core strengths drive my pursuit of growth, my curiosity to learn new technologies and techniques, and my willingness to transcend beyond myself for the project's greater good.

Visual Alchemist
As a visual alchemist, or as mere mortals call it, content producer, I’ve conjured an array of my own gadgets and gear to harness the soul of any scene. My mystical arsenal includes portable lights, FX3 camera, and lenses, along with Rode Go II mics, tripod, slider, and gimbal, all trusted companions in a journey of casting spells for single-camera interviews, capturing tiny but potent scenes, and immersing spectators in micro-cinematic vlogs filled with whimsy and wonder. Furthermore, the sorcery doesn’t end there. In this extraordinary epoch of tech, with a little movie magic, these sleek trinkets are enough to shoot your very own feature film! Mind blown’ 🤯
Other important skills:
Whoah, there I am again, directing with my hand. That’s okay; it’s an open-hand gesture this time, which makes it a friendlier directing style.

Over the last year and a half, I’ve enjoyed producing content for the brand iYURA: micro-budgets but macro-fun.
More visual fun to peek and ponder at.

Here we are, at the end, well, not the end, just the end of this section. So if this conjurer of content spectacle piqued your interest, and you say to yourself, “Hey, how can I speak to this wonky wizard from wherever whence he came, he said, but that was way back, and I don’t remember, but how can I get in touch with him?” then this is the section. I have long ago said bye to pigeons or owl carriers (for the sake of the animals) and said hello to e-mail: kvnalbrs@gmail.com
