Brief Message to Members: The IDA strengthens our purpose in the amazing field of documentary filmmaking!
Biography: Stephon Litwinczuk was raised in rural Littleton, New Hampshire, population 6,000. After graduating college and spending a year in the AmeriCorps VISTA program (domestic Peace Corps), he realized that his interest in filmmaking would coincide with his urban naivete to create a career path of social conscious films.
His recent credits include the landmark 7-part, 7-hour series for Turner Classic Movies called, “Moguls & Movie Stars: A History of Hollywood” for which he was an Associate Producer, Assistant Editor and Researcher. www.tcm.com/moguls
He worked and was nurtured under Emmy-award winning producer, Jon Wilkman. www.wilkman.com
Prior to that, he was the Associate Producer and only Archival Researcher/Assistant Editor for Academy-nominated, Emmy-award winning filmmaker, William Gazecki, for the 4-part, 5-hour documentary series, “Behind the Masks: the story of the Screen Actor’s Guild”. www.williamgazecki.com/sag
Stephon has been honored to be the primary Director of Photography for "Sweet Adversity", a biography doc on the amazing celebrity activist Marsha Hunt. Stephon was introduced to Marsha Hunt when working on the Screen Actor’s Guild documentary and the “Moguls” series. Marsha Hunt is the embodiment of the positive manifestation of what can come from stardom. Learning about Ms. Hunt’s life’s work inspires me in my ambitions of using this medium of film to raise consciousness and promote peace.
Independently, Stephon just finished his first documentary film about a transformative journey of a homeless man in Los Angeles’ “Skid Row”. www.fallingupdoc.com
