ABOUT US
METAMORPH FILMS has been making films for the last 20 years. With nature as a guide and our senses in mind, our work swings on a pendulum between art and science. We strive for our work to metamorph hearts and minds, in essence to make a positive impact on our environmental and social ethic.
We have extensive experience working in every biome on the planet from the Arctic to the Antarctic, from tropical forests and rivers to ice fields. Metamorph's work has featured on BBC, National Geographic, Curiosity Stream, Amazon Prime, iTunes, PBS, and NPR, as well as museums, art galleries and prestigious film festivals worldwide. We specialize in creative, thoughtful productions for streaming and theatrical release.
The films on this site have been directed, produced, and/or filmed by owner, Kathy Kasic, and represent collaborations with hundreds of people and organizations.

Kathy Kasic is a filmmaker/principal of Metamorph Films and an Associate Professor of Film at California State University Sacramento. Many moons ago, she traded evolutionary biology in the Ecuadorian Amazon for filmmaking. Using a sensorial emphasis on place to unveil the human relationship with the natural world, her 100+ productions have appeared at international festivals, on television (BBC, Discovery, Smithsonian, PBS, National Geographic), and won numerous awards, a National Emmy for Outstanding Science Documentary and the Wild and Scenic Film Festival Career Award for Environmental Filmmaking. Kasic has field directed for BBC's Earth Shot: Repairing Our Planet (feat. David Attenborough and Prince William) and directed/produced The Lake at the Bottom of the World, a sensory vérité feature film about an international team of scientists exploring a subglacial lake 3,600 feet beneath the West Antarctic Ice Sheet.
Her most recent film, The Memory of Darkness, Light, and Ice, fuses science with historical intrigue and investigates the potential for the disappearance of the Greenland Ice Sheet. The latter won an Emmy for Outstanding Science and Technology Documentary at the News and Documentary Emmys and the career award for Environmental Filmmaking at the Wild and Scenic Film Festival. Kasic’s goal is to shed light on our interdependence with nature, hoping to engender a stronger environmental ethic in our society.
