About Rucksack Films Studio

Posted on 8:00 AM by Rob

Rucksack Films began its life in the early years of 2000 in Atlantic Highlands, NJ.

While creating a series of short films with friends the idea sprang forth to create a small independent company that would allow privately created films to see the light of day.

Over the next 4 years, Rob began writing both feature-length screenplays as well as producing what would eventually become the Ginkers documentary. With a fully realized crew consisting of Matt Ziegler (camera), Eric Mosher (camera/editor) and Bill Schlavis (sound engineer), the company began production on the Ginker film in 2006.

After several test screenings at local film festivals the film wrapped production in 2009 and is currently in post-production.

Rucksack Films has an arsenal of feature-length screenplays that will be unveiled and produced in the coming years.
