After 15 years of independently producing films in Malaysia, brothers Iskander Azizuddin and Feisal Azizuddin are expanding Feisk Productions' reach by taking part in an international film residency in Los Angeles. The Malaysian production company was selected for the 2026 Global Media Makers (GMM) LA Residency, an opportunity among nine Malaysians chosen for the prestigious program.
The nine-week residency, implemented by Film Independent and funded by the US Department of State, will provide mentorship, masterclasses, and project development sessions covering various aspects of the film and television industry. GMM hosts participants from diverse Asian countries, including Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, and Thailand.
For Feisk Productions, the timing aligns with the company's increasing focus beyond Malaysia, as their upcoming feature film Curi Makan was recently purchased by Abnormal Studios for worldwide sales. The program offers Feisk and the Malaysian delegation a unique chance to learn about international financing, distribution, and business strategies, as well as connect with filmmakers who have experience in major film festivals.
