About
Christian Kostyniuk is a photographer, videographer, and editor based in Calgary, AB. He works across stills and motion, and handles post-production on both.
He runs Thunder Lizard Collective, the banner most of the narrative work is released under. His earlier work was in puppet building and performance, which remains part of his practice.
He continues to shoot Super 8 and other small-format analog formats alongside digital work.
Post-production is available for both his own projects and footage shot by others, on site or remotely.
