About TAZA

TAZA MEDIA is a non-fiction production company founded by Sherien Barsoum. Exploring critical issues with a fresh lens, TAZA tells stories for web, film, television and commercial platforms.

Working with an award-winning team – editor James Blokland [Nurse.Fighter.Boy], cinematographer John M. Tran [Waterlife], and composer John Welsman [The Sacred Balance] – Sherien created COLOUR ME, her first documentary film exploring what it means to be Black today.

A former youth worker, Sherien knows good stories are often birthed in hard places. Before founding TAZA, she was a national reporter for CTS, and worked as a producer for CTV, SunTV and Rogers. In addition to making films, Sherien helps the Ontario government tell its stories online as Senior Producer for ontario.ca.

TAZA Media is based in Toronto.
