Marc RousselSearch WILDsound  Marc caught the film bug while sitting in a friend’s dark living room watching "John Carpenter’s The Thing". By the time the lights came back on he knew what he wanted to be when he grew up - a filmmaker. Not long after, Marc talked his dad into buying a Super 8 camera, projector and splicer, and started making films with his friends. He went on to study film at Humber College in Toronto, and then attended The New York Film Academy’s inaugural first year, where he was the only Canadian amongst an international student body. Marc has spent the last 12 years working in post production on various TV series', TV movies and feature films such as "The Skulls 2 and 3", "Breakfast with Scot" and Atom Egoyan’s "Where the Truth Lies", "Adoration", "Chloe" and is currently working on "Barney’s Version" for Robert Lantos. He co-wrote, produced and edited the short film "The Hardest Job" and edited the multi-award winning "Boyfriend Latte". Marc has also directed, written and edited the short films "Dear Barry", "Dead Clown", "Sweet Tooth" (which won 3rd Prize at the 24hr Toronto Film Challenge in 2006). In 2007 Marc tried his hand at ‘Shot on Mobile’ filmmaking with his first attempt being "Alchemy", a 1 minute film about two cell phones that fall in love, that went on to win awards at Mobifest, Wildsound Feedback Film Festival and Renderyard 1-Minute Film Festival. His second Mobile film, "Rewind My Love" , was commissioned by Mobifest for their 24-hour Mobile Challenge. The film was shot using a Nokia N86 mobile phone. Marc’s last film, "Remote", a 20-minute horror/thriller about a murderous time warp, has screened at 26 film festivals worldwide and gone on to win several awards and garnered rave reviews. Marc produces his films through his company Red Sneakers Media.
