 Kevin
Lee Burton (Swampy Cree) is a director, programmer
and
freelance editor. In 2005 his film Meskanahk (My Path) won
the
Cynthia Lickers-Sage Award for Emerging Talent at the ImagineNATIVE
Film + Media Arts Festival in Toronto, and Nikamowin (Song)
received ImagineNATIVE's Best Experimental and Best Indigenous
Language Production awards in 2007. It also received the Short
Film and Video Award at the Art Gallery of Hamilton International
Film and Video Festival in 2008, and had its US Premiere at the
2008 Sundance Film Festival. Burton's 2007 short, Writing the
Land, received the Gerry Brunet Award at the 2008 Vancouver
Queer Film Festival. Burton was trained at the Indigenous Independent
Digital Filmmaking Program (formerly the Aboriginal Film &
TV Production Training program) at Capilano University in North
Vancouver, British Columbia, and he has worked as a program assistant
at the Native and Indigenous Initiatives program at the Sundance
Institute. Kevin is originally from God's Lake Narrows First Nation
in Manitoba, Canada.
"My greatest goal is to create a fluid connection between
'traditional' and technological ideas, so that the word 'contemporary'
becomes diminished to the mere segregation that it really is—then
we can start creating from self-expression other than self-definition."
