Williscroft, Colin

Colin Williscroft (b.1992) is a filmmaker, projection designer and sound artist born in Calgary AB, currently based in Vancouver, BC. With a focus on sound and its personal connection to time, Colin’s work blends formats through experimental films and expanded cinema. During his time at Simon Fraser University, his work became characterized by the process of altering form to push the boundaries of the filmic language. His work and collaborations have appeared in such festivals as Prague International Film Festival, VIFF, Chilliwack Independent Film Festival, Small File Media Festival, Tangente Gallery, Scumdance, and the Festival of Live Digital Art. Beyond his own work and collaborations, he engages with the Vancouver independent community as through sound recording, designing and mixing. He hopes to continue creating and helping the community experiment with film, not only as a way to tell stories but to also foster a new wave of cinema.
