Timothy Michael Gorski -Director

Gorski was born and raised in New Jersey. He has always had a passion for art and nature… and for questioning authority.

He received a Masters degree in Film Arts at Miami International University, a BS degree in Visual Communications from the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale (AIFL) a Liberal Arts AA degree (focus in Philosophy and Ethics) from Broward Community College.

Gorski began working in television in 1992 as a broadcast graphic designer/animator. In '94 he became art director of The Animation Factory, working on commercials, game cinematics, and Saturday morning cartoons. In 1995 Gorski joined faculty at AIFL to help design a computer animation program. In 1997 he became a full-time instructor spending much of his spare time educating himself in culture, philosophy, and animal rights.

He is co-founder of Rattle the Cage Productions, making docs, commercials, and PSA's concerning animal protection issues. RTC credits include the Wildlife Care Center of Fort Lauderdale, VIVA USA, SHARK, Dolphin Project, One Voice, and Dolphin Freedom Foundation.

Gorski works with former animal trainers and wildlife specialists designing lectures and presentations for schools, universities, and conferences on the subjects of Marine Mammals in Captivity and Guerilla Documentary Filmmaking.

His adventurous nature has delivered him down the muddy rivers of the Amazon Jungle with Yanomami indians and has compelled him to hike through the Sahara desert with nomads on Christmas day, armed with just his journal and a toothbrush.

This is Gorski's first feature film.
