Daniel Shulkin

Growing up in the suburbs just outside Toronto, Daniel Shulkin has always maintained a passion for movies and filmmaking. Starting at an early age, he began to experiment with movie-making techniques and editing fundamentals on old tape deck editors at summer camp. As the years went on, he continued to pursue his passion for storytelling through video projects and written narratives. Throughout his high school years, he maintained a keen interest in improving his skills in communications technologies and creative writing, including work in graphic design, audio production, and video production. In the years that followed, Shulkin found employment at the local Cineplex, becoming a projectionist and learning valuable information about the mechanics of film and the complex mainstream Hollywood distribution process. Once he began focusing exclusively on film production, he created the distributor label Jebus Films in 2007 as the official banner for his future film releases. As well as creating short films and videos for assignments, Daniel spent his last two years in secondary school working with frequent collaborator Ryan Ng to make two feature-length films, which were shot simultaneously ("Austistic" and "The Number 24") and were both released under the Jebus Films label in 2009. With his past projects receiving positive reviews, he is continuing to hone his skills in writing, directing, editing, and cinematography as he is in the process of completing his Bachelor's degree in film studies. As of 2011, Daniel Shulkin is working on developing several short film projects that will be in production in the coming months.
