OUR STUDIO

2024

Calgary Studio

Barbershop Films was born in the age of advanced digital platforms, highly intelligent audiences, and the need for lightning quick turnarounds. For over two decades, our steady growth has been driven by the desire to provide our clients and collaborators with the most innovative cinematic and storytelling tools and services in order to create unforgettable content that moves the needle.

Our Calgary studio – leg by award-winning producer and writer Brent Kawchuk – is shaped by that same level of resourcefulness, passion, and unparalleled dedication to our clients. Together, Brent and Barbershop have created content that has made waves both regionally and nationally, including a Heritage Minute for Historica Canada, and marketing campaigns for SaskTel. Backed with decades of experience, Brent’s approach perfectly reflects Barbershop’s entrenched commitment ensuring your vision is realized with unrivalled impact and creativity.

With studios spread across all Western Canada, each a creative agency, production studio, and post-facility under one roof, Barbershop’s talented team can help you create standout content, and achieve your marketing goals with greater confidence and efficiency.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Our film studio strives for greatness by producing digital video that will engage, entertain, and inform audiences.

01 - Engage

If a video isn’t pulling you into the screen, then it’s not providing the right effects (or affect). Whether our video productions explore emotional moments, humorous ones, or intelligence that piques your attention, Barbershop Films strives to make every video, film, commercial, documentary, or music video a compelling one. 

02 - Entertain

What’s more of a basic human trait than wanting to be entertained? Particularly by some emotive cinematography, brilliant special effects, or stunning animations. We have a production team of passionate storytellers working with some of the most advanced cinema tools to ensure our work is rewarding to watch. 

03 - Inform

From pre to post production, every stage of our work need to be considerate and precise. Our clients often require critical information to be communicated in their agency or corporate video productions, or documentary films. Our film studio uses a number of tools, including motion graphics, to drive informative impact.

Drop-ins suck if it’s your parole officer (not that we have one), or even worse, your in-laws for the weekend. But drop-ins are great if you’re a new client, current client, old friend, or dog. Come have a chat with us.
