Introducing RJ Joesph.
www.moccasipathproductions.com
R.J. Joseph, of Cree heritage, grew up in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. As the youngest of eleven children, he spent his childhood surrounded by multiple generations of extended family. The kitchen became a teaching circle, where parents, grandparents, aunties and uncles instilled lessons of culture as well as traditional and spiritual values.
It is upon this foundation that R.J. built Moccasin Path Productions as a way to protect the richness of his Native American roots.
R.J. continued the education begun in his mother’s kitchen, by listening to the wisdoms of gifted Storytellers. These Elders instilled belief, pride and a personal understanding of his place in the world, as well as the importance for all people to know their background.
R.J.’s passion for history and his sensitivity to this endangered oral art form now have an outlet – film. R.J.’s career began fifteen years ago in front of the camera as a Native American Actor and Stuntman, featured in well-known pieces such as Thunderheart with Val Kilmer, Iron Will and Desperado among others.
He became intrigued with directing, working with legends of the industry like Woody Allen, Charles Haid, Michael Apted and Sam Sheppard.
By marrying his vast experience in the film industry with his extensive knowledge of Native American history, R.J. has taken his filmmaking career into a new realm as a historian and preservationist of indigenous culture.
R.J. has the rare gift of uncovering the essence of a person or an issue and capturing their spirit on film. And as is tradition, the torch has now passed. It is his turn to share the richness and beauty of his culture. R.J. is a modern-day Storyteller.
R.J now is a renowned film producer, director, writer and photographer, with an ongoing drive to share his passion, vision and gifts, to bring about the much needed changes pertaining to Indian Country, issues and his people.
