Kevin Kossowan, BCom
Filmmaker. Sound. Story Chaser.
Kevin is a multi-award winning filmmaker, including a nomination for a James Beard Foundation Award for his series, From The Wild.
Kevin's passionate about film and sound design. With a degree in business and too many years of experience in the world of finance, jokes are made about his spirit animal being a spreadsheet. Spreadsheets for pre-producing scenes and storyboards, spreadsheets for shotlists and packing lists for the field. Kevin wins at spreadsheets.
Kevin has produced film all over the world, details in the long-form CV you can download below. His current obsessions include mid-side ambiance soundscaping for film, scene design in pre-production, original score composition, story editing, and firewood.
