He is also a multicultural journalist with a Masters degree in Philosophy. As a filmmaker, Felipe explores and experiments with the audio visual language to create projects that capture the dangerous path of a creative human venture. Listening to the heartbeat of life he thinks in images, syllables and pigments. He talks in music, words and colors. He speaks the visual language that our modern culture understands. He has released 6 short films (The Book of Life, Inhabit, PIXEL, Desire, Dust House and touchME: Dida); short and long format documentaries (including Louvre Atlanta); 3 books of poetry (Múrberon, El Libro de Isamar and Aion); has composed several original scores for silent films and documentaries (including Nosferatu, Metropolis and CNN’s Filling the Blank among others); has done several multimedia installations (including Fire Woman among others); and has performed live both in Chile and the United States. Felipe has taught his “Creative Production Philosophy & Style” to producers, reporters and colleagues from CNNE, CNNI and HLN; and he also teaches it to children and young storytellers in an international school in Atlanta, which led him to be recognized with Time Warner’s Richard D. Parsons Community Impact Award in 2014. In 2010 Felipe produced, directed, filmed (second camera) and wrote the acclaimed Alzheimer’s documentary “Filling the Blank” for CNN International’s World Untold Stories show.

I consider myself a storyteller first and a filmmaker second. I truly believe that pretty pictures without soul and purpose are simply just that, pretty pictures. Every project I take on, whether it's a documentary, corporate vignette, or commercial, I always rely on story to drive every decision made in crafting content that speaks and resonates with audiences on a deeper human level. My work has taken me from the headquarters of fortune 500 companies to impoverish villages in rural Ghana. I've had the opportunity to interview industry leaders, dreamers, artists, innovators, underdogs, victims of abuse, terminally ill patients, and activists. From bigger than life characters to normal everyday working people, we all have a story to share and yet good stories only happen to those who can tell them. I am grateful and blessed to continue my pursuit of happiness and passion to craft good stories that challenge the way we think and speak to the heart to move the mind. Over the years my work has been recognized with numerous awards including 5 Emmys and 1 Telly, and yet I feel I've only just scratched the surface. When I am not behind a camera or computer I enjoy spending quality time with my family hiking a trail, traveling, getting our hands dirty in the veggie garden or playing with our dog and chickens.

Creative + Producer + Director + Writer + Shooter + Editor. I'm currently lending my talents and studio to help get people elected with integrity and humanity to public office all over Georgia. I care about our future. My life is aways evolving and I absolutely love it. People seek me out for my voice, because I can produce compelling content that’s worth watching twice. I turn mundane ideas into intoxicating ones. I've become a trustworthy professional because I earn trust. I've sold beer, played golf with Alice Cooper, and invented entire histories to sell headphones and amplifiers. Many of my videos have gone viral. I've created mascots and educated festival goers on how to not get killed while attending. I’ve persuaded old ladies to drop f-bombs for credit union ads, and made music videos for Grammy winners. I've shut down city blocks for festivals, organized burrito binging alleycat races, and have made the news with satirical grassroots campaigns. Neither of these things are hyperbole. Let's have a conversation.

In 2019 I decided to leave my home country, Ukraine, and move to the US to pursue a career in film. I attended Savannah College of Art and Design for a Film and Television degree but always strived to get as much experience as I could on various sets and work opportunities. Despite little experience at the time, I quickly realized I had a great passion for directing. My biggest achievement up to now is a short film I have directed called "Glory to the Nation", which ultimately brought me 3 Student Emmy Awards and is still in the festival circuit. I have also discovered I strive in the grip and electrical department and genuinely enjoy gaffing jobs of any scale. I have worked on various projects including short and feature films, TV shows, commercials, fashion photography, and music videos. I co-own an equipment rental company called PYX Studios, which offers a great amount of camera and lighting equipment, enough for maintaining any smaller-scale productions.

I'm Kyle Sklenar, a commercial and documentary Writer, Director, and Editor, with an aptitude for Comedy and Adventure. I've written for NBCUniversal's Holiday campaign, The Walking Dead's 10th Season Promo, and a handful of spots for Dish Network. I love directing, it's in my bones. Two stories for another day: I've directed a Super Bowl commercial in 2020 for a total budget of $10,000 with only one week to go from concept to master delivery. I've also convinced Kroger to build an entire game show set in the middle of the produce department of an active store. And as an editor, I've gotten my 10,000 hours. I started out in post, learning from Emmy award winning directors on the right (and sometimes wrong) way to do things. I've cut for AMC, NBCUniversal, Amazon, Disney, Toyota, Dish Network, The Utah Jazz, etc etc All in all, I know story. I know humor. And I know adventure. Let's work together and make a lasting impact on the world around us, while having some fun along the way.

Hi! I'm an Atlanta-based filmmaker specializing in editing and sound design. I originate from Western NC where I graduated from WCU with a BFA in Film and Television Production in the Spring of 2022. My school connections led me to Local Cinema Studios, where I got my start as a DIT and Assistant Editor, which later turned into an opportunity to Sound Design. Now, I've done both in some facet for films, small businesses, and all sorts of other media. Last year, I got an opportunity to edit and sound design the feature film, Hero, funded by USC and The South Carolina Film Commission, which is currently on its festival run. I love telling stories and would love to get to tell yours!
