Transforming Stories Into Cinematic Art

Hello! I’m Andrew Cantella, a filmmaker based in the vibrant city of New York. With a deep passion for storytelling, I specialize in crafting compelling documentaries and narrative films that explore our shared humanity. My filmmaking career is dedicated to touching hearts, provoking thought, and inspiring action through both fiction and real-life stories.

A New Chapter in Filmmaking

My journey into filmmaking began after a decade of experience in the marketing side of streamed media. In 2022, I took the leap into filmmaking full-time, armed with a degree in Documentary Filmmaking from the New York Film Academy. This transition has allowed me to embrace a fresh perspective on storytelling, focusing on narratives that connect us to our natural world and to each other.
