Kirk Shaw

Kirk Shaw (born May 23, 1956) is a Canadian-born producer who founded Insight Film Studios.

In 2009, under Shaw's leadership, Insight Studios was forced to downsize following a change in interpretation of the tax credit system by Canada Revenue Agency with two companies seeking re-payment through lawsuits.[1]

In February 2012, Kirk Shaw joined Odyssey Media as a film and television content producer/packager.[2]

Shaw has been deemed an unfair engager by the Writers Guild of Canada 13 times[3] for failing to abide by grievance procedures or the decision of a Joint Standing Committee. Two of his over 250 productions are on the Writers Guild of America strike/unfair list.[4]
