Kaela Waldstein:
Filmmaker
For Kaela Waldstein, video storytelling is a high art form. She brings her training in fine visual arts, writing, Sociology, and multiple sophisticated skill sets to the craft of filmmaking.
She often works solo as director, producer, cinematographer and editor, allowing for on-set intimacy, efficient communication, and quick turnaround. She sees her role as one of service, each project a collaboration helping to distill and elevate the voices of those sharing their stories.
Kaela is widely respected for her ability to listen, her careful approach to sensitive subject matter, and the strong human element at the center of the work.
She works primarily with city and state government, educational institutions and non-profits to craft content with far reaching impact. She also draws from a network of skilled subcontractors for larger projects, and offers her services to other producers and creative agencies.
Collectively, Kaela’s work has garnered over 20 awards, including 5 Rocky Mountain Emmys and a variety of film festival recognitions.
