COLIN BRESSLER - CREATOR
Colin Bressler is the son of a Cuban-American mother and a Jewish father. Life has not been easy at times for Colin as early in his life he started to struggle with the severe anxiety disorder of OCD. This disorder has plagued Colin for most of his life and he now uses it to guide his film-making. His films focus on characters and stories about people who struggle against the dominate cultural narrative. The story of No Promised Land is deeply personal to both Colin and Destiny since it tells the tale of a marginalized person pushing upstream to find her promised land.
After attending the School of Visual Arts in New York City, where he received the award for Best Achievement in Cinematography, Colin began working in the industry as a First Assistant Cameraperson. As an assistant he was able to learn under some of the great DP’s of our time and truly immerse himself in the art of cinematography. While learning as a crew person, Colin was shooting anything and everything he could to grow as a cameraperson. Based on the film work he accumulated, he was nominated for the American Society of Cinematography Award for Best New Comer to the industry. Shortly after, he served as Director of Photography on two feature length documentaries; the first was filmed in India entitled Take Me to the River and the second was filmed in Japan and entitled Kokuyaku. He brought this newfound knowledge to the HiDef feature film, The Amazing Floydini, co-starring Gilbert Gottfried, that went on to win Best Feature Film at the New Hampshire Film Festival and his second HiDef romantic comedy feature, You Tell Me.
Colin’s unique cinematic style of lighting has been featured in HIGH DEF Magazine, as he continues to challenge himself and push his cinematic expression to the limits. Colin went on to Lens a variety of other film projects and TV shows such as the History channel's Engineering An Empire, It's All Geek To Me for the Discovery Channel, Whose Wedding is It Anyway for the Style Network and many more. He has also entered the new world of web based content with innovative shows for Time.com, EntertainmentWeekly.com, SportsIllustrated.com, and Essence.com, where he has been at the front of the web video revolution taking place. Colin then began to explore directing micro budget films and shot his first film Sleepover, an experimental horror film which went on to get distributed by Screamtime Films. He has since made three more micro budget films, Bloody Drama, Domestic Hell and Remy’s Demons. He has won best feature for Domestic Hell in two film festivals.
