As part of their continued growth, Radioaktivefilm are excited to announce the opening of a base in Toronto, Canada, to service the North American production market and their loyal American clients. Their new operation, based in the creative hub of Liberty Village will be run by long-term Radioaktivefilm favourite EP Sasha Bevka, as Managing Director.
Over the past twenty years, Radioaktivefilm has worked with some of the leading production companies, agencies, and brands from the US market, and has a strong understanding of their service ethics and demand. So for American clients wanting to shoot closer to home, or those reluctant to travel for either environmental or budgetary reasons, Radioaktivefilm’s new operation in Canada now offers a real production alternative.
A huge influence on Radioaktivefilm’s choice of Toronto as a base, was the open invitation from like-minded production company MERCHANT, whose established structure and stellar support enabled an easy transition from the outset, and which has allowed Radioaktivefilm to bring their distinctive vibe to the developed market.
“Unable to return to Kyiv for the moment, we’ve been considering how to protect our client relationships, and Canada offers us an ideal location to replicate the standard of service our clients have come to expect working with Radioaktive Film. Using the can-do attitude of our own EP’s, here in Toronto we now have access to the highest standards of local tech crews and equipment, allowing us to mirror our problem-solving production creativity. Our new base has the benefit of creating like-for-like locations, a diverse casting pool of English-speaking performers – with acting and comedy backgrounds – all just one hour from New York and four hours from LA,” said Sasha Bevka, EP / MD, Radioaktivefilm Canada.
“The support from our US colleagues during the last year of war has been incredible and we are excited to be able to find this way of bringing our production skillsets closer to home for our clients. Canada offers us a real opportunity to replicate a service that we are so proud of and we hope that we can engage with the commercials market and bring our production creativity to this new territory,” said Darko Skulsky, Founder, Radioaktivefilm.
"Radioaktive is a world class company. We are incredibly excited to work alongside them in Toronto and continue to prove that Canada is one of the best places in the world to shoot. We are happy to welcome them to Canada and believe that this alliance will open up new opportunities for us both,” added Ian Webb, EP, MERCHANT.
