Featured Member: Kiros Pictures

Kiros Pictures is a small film production company founded by two screenwriter/producers that, to date, has produced five short films and is transitioning this year into feature film development and production.  Kiros comes from the Greek word meaning “a moment of divine time,” referring to the opportune moment in which something should be brought into existence.  The company’s goal is to bring unique and interesting film to the world at just the right time.  Kiros Pictures’ writer/producer Joe Brouillette tells us more…

Who or what have been your biggest influences?

Screenwriter John August (Go, Big Fish, The Nines);
Writer/Director Christopher Nolan (Memento, The Prestige, Batman Begins);
Playwright/Screenwriter Tom Stoppard (The Real Thing, Arcadia, Shakespeare in Love).

What has been Kiros Pictures’ greatest success to date?

Winning a $10,000 Grand Jury prize in a national contest for our first short film, Sissy Frenchfry.  That, and figuring out our first business tax return.

If you could collaborate with any creative mind, living or dead, who would it be?

Tough question. Either Oscar Wilde or Paul Rubens.

You’ve been a member of Fractured Atlas since March of 2007.  How do you use your Fractured Atlas membership?

Fiscal sponsorship and film production insurance.

Complete this sentence: “A world without art is…”

“…a world that has stopped evolving.”  Seems complete to me!

What projects are on your horizon?

We’re currently co-producing a children’s feature film with Persistent Entertainment, and trying to get studio funding for it.  In addition, we have five indy feature film scripts in search of financiers and/or producing partners.  And we’re writing more all the time.

How can we see and learn more about your company’s work?

You may visit the website for our first project at sissyfrenchfry.com or myspace.com/sissyfrenchfrymovie.  A company website will be developed soon.
