JOEL RICHARDSON, INC.
EAST PALATKA, FLORIDA

Joel Richardson began his career as a portrait painter. His early work demonstrated a fascination with the fusing of extremes in ideas and techniques, all of this in an attempt to expand traditional portraiture into the realm of social documentation. Fueled in part by creative expeditions across the globe the move into film was a natural evolution for Joel. His early documentation through portraiture grew into his own unique form of gonzo documentary filmmaking. He has directed several short films including the short Germinio Pio Politi: A Documentary Portrait airing on Bravo Television, Bold and the Documentary Channel. Partnering now with GUERILLA FILMS founder James Motluk, he is completing post-production on CONVERSATIONS TO MARRAKECH, a road movie about finance. Joel will also be completing this summer his large mural on both sides of a Toronto underpass.
