Creating Super Dicks
Origins
For Bardya Ziaian, taking calculated risks is an essential part of life.
“A person who is too fearful will end up performing defensively and thus fail to seize offensive advantages.” – Benjamin Graham.
Despite not having a film background, Bardya didn’t hesitate to dive into his passion project and launch Bardya Pictures Inc.
Bardya Ziaian has always wanted to tell stories but decided his first feature film, Super Dicks, would perform well as a comedy. As the producer, this endeavor was completely new for Bardya. The prospect didn’t deter him in the slightest.
He leveraged his knowledge of the financial industry with his creative mind and keen attention to detail, embarking on a new journey that would test his past experiences.
About Super Dicks
It’s Bardya’s belief that it’s necessary to push oneself out of their comfort zone for the sake of learning and growing. In a short time, Bardya became a producer, writer, and actor in his own film.
Super Dicks featured performances from Paul Braunstein, Kim Coates, Marie Avgeropoulos, Ambyr Childer, Michael Ironside, Greg Bryk, and Keara Graves.
Research and script development began pre-COVID-19 and the pandemic didn’t prevent the pace of shooting, despite having the option to postpone. Instead, Bardya chose to create jobs for talented individuals during a very difficult time. He ensured the team was able to operate safely and securely under the best conditions.
Bardya also has two additional films in pre-production, and How to Kill Your Boss.
Inspiration
It’s his belief that pushing yourself into new territory and trying new things in spite of your fears is a worthwhile pursuit that has proven valuable throughout his career. While his past experience may have seemed mismatched, Bardya was able to draw on past experiences to help him in his filmmaking pursuits. He has been in many leadership roles that helped him to understand how to manage the direction of his projects as well as the team involved to create the best possible film.
Still aiming to move forward and keep the momentum going, Bardya was already working on his second feature film (How to Kill Your Boss) while his first is about to be released. He and his team are able to build on their experience and utilized what they learned for the future.
However, details about the film are being kept close to his chest, other than the fact that Bardya will be working with writers Damian Lee and Zion Forrest Lee.
