Who we are

Who we serve

We work with developmental disability organizations, day program teams, families, and aligned funders who want participant-led creative work that compounds over time.

The Founder

Joe Moulins — four decades in broadcast, film, disability advocacy, and frontline support.

Joe has spent over 40 years in broadcasting and film—CBC Radio, the National Film Board, and independent documentary—alongside decades in disability advocacy and community support. Frontline experience as a Community Support Worker exposed recurring barriers in day programs: staff burnout, high turnover, and creative work treated as disposable.

Punkeye Pictures exists at that intersection. The craft behind works like Citizen Sam (NFB, 2006) is combined with practical systems that protect authorship, consent, and continuity for disabled creators.

Own Voices

"Own Voices" means people telling their own stories from lived experience, not being represented by proxy. In disability media, that means disabled people shaping decisions about story, form, and release. We design workflows that support communication access, ongoing consent, and creator credit.

The Punkeye Ethos

The name comes from a childhood acquaintance whose independence and humor pushed back against pity and patronage. It is intentionally raw and defiant against systems that default to time-filling instead of authorship.
