The ask

What the project needed.

Support a visiting esports documentary team profiling Russel "Twistzz" Van Dulken with reliable local gear, production coordination and place-specific location guidance around Kelowna.

What mattered

What had to work.

The crew arrived with its own camera package and an international esports schedule, but needed local support for interviews, lighting, sound, gear and locations that could quickly place the story in Twistzz's hometown region.

What we did

How KFS handled it.

Kelowna Film Studios assembled the requested lighting, grip, sound and support package, coordinated delivery and return, and gave the team a practical shortlist of Kelowna and West Kelowna locations that could carry lake, mountain, city and hometown context.

The result

What came out of it.

EFG / ESL released the finished profile as a nearly twenty-minute portrait of Twistzz and his path from Kelowna into professional Counter-Strike. KFS supported the Kelowna interviews, locations, lighting, sound and gear.
