Discover Top Gaffers in Akron, Ohio, USA

My name is Kory Pitkavish and I am an LA based director, currently residing in Pittsburgh due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I have a large background across several departments and industries. I've been Directing music videos, Youtube creator content, and narrative shorts for the last 9 years. I have been lucky enough to Direct content and videos for Desiigner, Liza Koshy, Scotty Sire, Old Spice, as well as many others. I have also done 7 music tours, Shooting and editing the online tour content for Desiigner, Steve Aoki, Riff Raff, and Scotty Sire. All projects that I Direct are also edited and colored by me using Davinci Resolve Studio. Outside of Directing I have Gaffed Shorts for Hulu, as well as numerous Shorts and Features for up and coming LA Directors such as Steph Dezil and Vincente DiSanti. Long story short, I just like working, and helping create things. I love working in this industry and I look forward to helping anyone out there!

Storytelling is my tool to share everyday moments, showcase unfamiliar cultures and to battle division and differences with truth and empathy for others. However, I also perceive the world through the lens of a geographer and I’m fascinated by how economic, political and cultural structures affect the autonomy of individuals and societies. It’s no wonder why I’m drawn to themes such as immigration, universal healthcare, climate change, environmental justice, human rights and access to education. When I’m not envisioning a better world, you can find me learning a new language, climbing trees, playing a classic rock song or letting loose on the dance floor.

Starting out in the talent world, I discovered that I also have a love of gear, leading me into lighting and getting behind the camera. Conducting interviews i enjoy getting a subject comfortable, getting the right info the right way , connecting on a human level. As a Part 107 certified drone pilot for the last 6 years, I've flown in such challenging environments as an operational steel mill. Overall - I just love telling a story!

At the age of 14 I was taken from set to set by my brother who needed extra hands. From then I have spend the next 15 years learning and becoming specialized in audio and production managment. At the same time I got my economic degree, and now use what I learned to build budgets and take charge of allocating capital. I have a great attitude and will work hard to complete anything I start.
