Kyle Sandilands, filmmaker; joins the team!

With very short notice, the CBT Viet Nam team is super excited to welcome Kyle Sandilands (a recent graduate from Capilano University's Film Program) to the team. He will be joining us tonight as we depart to Viet Nam. His mission is to take his extraordinary film-making skills and produce some video pieces and media material for the project.
Kyle Sandilands is a Vancouver-based filmmaker interested in telling stories that are both entertaining and thought provoking through the areas of directing, cinematography, and editing. A recent grad of Capilano University's Motion Picture Production program, Kyle has worked on a variety of projects in various capacities. In 2010, Kyle found himself working as a camera assistant for Olympic Broadcasting Service's coverage of the ice hockey matches at Vancouver's Winter Olympics, and this past summer, Kyle worked with the Academy Award-winning visual effects company, Weta Digital, and the team responsible for bringing films such as Avatar and Lord of the Rings to life, among others. Balancing work on Hollywood features, television movies, and other gigs, Kyle has also shot and directed a number of independent projects, including short films, music videos, and documentaries, and he has seen his work screen around the world. With a love for travel and a desire to tell interesting stories through a moving image, Kyle is honored and excited to be a part of the team and hopes to bring a strong work ethic and great attitude to the project.

For the last three days it has been a whirlwind of planning and preparation for Kyle and the project team. In less than 72 hours Kyle has met with a few of the members of team, got all of his vaccinations, prepared all of the equipment he will need, and attained all of the necessary documents, permits, and insurances. Below is a photo of the gear he plans on taking to Viet Nam.

Kyle, glad to have you (and all that gear) on board; welcome!
