David De Silva

Producer-Director

This showreel is just a snapshot. Click below for my latest projects.

Hi, I'm David. I'm a producer, director, and editor based in Calgary with over a decade of experience working with government, major brands, universities, and nonprofits across commercial, political, corporate, documentary, and AI-integrated production.

I work across every stage of production, from concept and pre-production through to the final edit, and I bring the same level of care to a 15-second spot as I do to a multi-episode series.

Whether it's video production or creative consultancy, I'm always happy to talk about your next project.
