Steven began his career as a volunteer videographer shooting industrials and
within six weeks was promoted to a full time paid position as a Producer/Director/Writer in order to make a 15 minute documentary. He then went
on to making commercials for the local ABC affiliate and cable.
When the digital filmmaking revolution exploded he switched gears and drawing on his extensive production
experience he made the leap into filmmaking and towards that end was written
about in the bible of indie filmmaking "Feature Filmmaking at Used Car Prices,"
by Rick Schmidt. In the book Rick detailed how Steven started his production
company and launched his first feature on a Used Car budget.
That feature, a military costume period piece, is entitled
"Click...a
'Nam War Flick," which premiered at the
A-list "Ft.
Lauderdale International Film Festival" where it garnered high
praise from movie critics and Vietnam veterans alike for its honest portrayal of
the war, its attention to detail and its high production values that
helped it to win a Telly Award for Entertainment.
Steven
was also awarded; two Aurora Awards for Directing and Cinematography and the
"Spirit
Award" from
the TamBay International Film Festival where his movie was
in competition with more than 80 films from around the world.
To further hone his craft Steven made a follow up feature "Woodstock and Paco...a 'Nam War Flick" which won the Telly, Aurora and Aegis Awards for Entertainment.
Steven is currently in pre-production on a 35mm feature from his original screenplay. Contact Steven Kahler
