About Kyle Cucco

All-in-one documentary filmmaker. Creator of the award-winning docuseries CANADIANA, with some of the most-watched Canadian history content on YouTube (4.3M+ views, 95K+ subscribers). Creative professional with 10 years of experience in documentary film and television production. Specialty experience in drone footage, map animation, and filming 20 short documentaries across the country at the same time.Accomplishments:Nominated - Canadian Screen Award (CSA), Best Picture Editing 2024Nominated - Banff Rockie Award, Best Short Form Non-Fiction 2023Winner - Best Directing - International Factual Series, NZ WebFest 2023Winner - Canadian Cinema Editors Award (CCE), Best Editing in a Digital Series 2023Nominated - Canadian Screen Award, Best Non-Fiction Digital Series, 2020Winner - Golden Sheaf Award (Yorkton Film Festival), Best Research 2019Nominated - Golden Sheaf Award, Best Documentary Series 2019Winner - Canadian Cinema Editors Award, Best Editing in a Digital Series 2019 Since launching CANADIANA in 2017, I've built the series from zero to more than 40 short documentaries (5-25 mins.), which consistently top 100K views on YouTube. I work as one of two filmmakers on the episodes — from research and writing, to directing and camerawork, to editing and animating — and my work in all areas has been recognized with some of the highest awards in the industry. I'm best known for my unique approach to storytelling—be it narratively or visually. I find curious tales, research them to death, and then bring them to life by any means necessary. My filming and editing style is modern, but inspired by the classics, and unrestricted—at times, experimental. Every story deserves to be painted with its own unique brush, and they must always be entertaining—something I tend to think gets forgotten in the documentary world. I am also known for being obsessive-compulsive when it comes to details, in research or animation. As an all-in-one director-shooter-editor, I'm a:- Canon Cinema Camera Operator,- Certified Drone Pilot,- Mapmaking fiend,- and multi-award-winning Picture Editor/Animator proficient in Adobe Creative Suite.Outside of CANADIANA, I've more recently been involved on a handful of other projects as a lead editor, researcher, or pitch writer. I'm typically approached for my ability to find the stories worth telling and to figure out how to best tell them.Prior to my filmmaking career, I worked for a decade as a construction worker. I bring that workhorse mentality to everything that I do in the documentary industry.
