The Company
STEAMWORLD ENTERTAINMENT is an independent film company based in Kitchener, Ontario. Our primary aim is to make films on an extremely modest budget. We believe that great characters and exceptional story-telling are the key elements to any entertaining movie. With the increasing use of the internet to show and distribute talent this is the time for small filmmakers to share their visions with a world wide market. We at Steamworld Entertainment are pleased to enter that forum.

The Producer / Owner
DANUTE [DANNY] DORION has had a love of the movies as far back as she can remember. Growing up she was always writing scripts and re-enacting films. Movies are more than just entertainment for her. She has always found pleasure in taking films apart to discover what makes them work or not work. In 2007 she decided to take her passion to the next logical step. She got a camera, some books on making movies on a budget, and an editing suite. A graduate of Queen's University, with a BA Honors in Drama, she has been able to combine her movie savvy and theatre experience to create Steamworld Entertainment Films.
WHAT'S NEW: November 26, 2018
We entered the Toronto 48 Hour Challenge for the first time. This was a great deal of fun as we love challenges. A great team team put together and everyone helped in multiple ways, from writing to acting, to helping behind the scenes when needed. We got everything done and submitted on time. We didn't make the finals but the screening was a lot of fun. You can watch our short film Mr. Weir here: vimeo.com/301970691
RUN is finished. Rendering and uploads in the next day or so.
We are trying to catch up with Reckoning. You can find it here it under the Projects in Progress tab. The first three episodes are up. We were able to get some help to finish off the CG for Episode 4. One last scene to finish and then we will be posting that one as well.

WE ARE ON FACEBOOK - We now have a Facebook page. It allows us to post notices, articles of interest instantly. We feel this will be a better way to share information with our film community. It will also allow members to post as well, any other projects they are involved with, be it for screenings, calls for cast and/or crew, or pictures of works in progress. You name it. If it is related to film. If you are interested, please check us out and we can add you to the group: www.facebook.com/groups/steamworldentertainment/
