Biography

" Born in St-Hyacinthe, I am interested initially in the writing. At the time of a contest of scenario organized by the club of cinema amateur of my college, (Roger Frappier, Jean Chub and Marc Daigle were members), I arrive at the cinema, which impassions me immediately. For “touch-with-all” as I am, the cinema allows me to write, play, direct, build models, to plan special effects and to even assemble my images. An irresistible aubaine.

I think well of having been a prolific independent scenario writer, and several of my 30 court-measurings gained prices and mentions in international festivals. But I especially think of being noticed by my experiments of special effects and animation.

I pass for good in the professional rows with the war of Tuques (1984), of which I am the coscenarist. Consequently, I work during a few years as scenario writer and I endeavor to write stories to a whimsical tone and humoristique." Roger Cantin
