Kyle Goings is a recent film production graduate of New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. True to his Midwestern roots, everyday “folks” are the subject of his films. There’s more than meets the eye, however, as the everyday people in these films have far from everyday lives. From the tobacco fields of Cuba to the whetstone of weapons experts, Kyle captures the human element of those whose stories are seldom told, doing so in the most captivating light.

While in school, Kyle was able to study abroad in Havana, Cuba and shot two films: 'Field to Smoke' and 'Casa del Tabaco.' featuring the intriguing farm-to-shop stories of Cuba’s cigar industry.

Stateside, Kyle has created films about the Neo-Futurists, an experimental theatre group from NYC, and blacksmith Ryu Lim who starred on History Channel’s 'Forged in Fire.' He also worked as a production sound mixer.
