KIT3 is a partnership of Melbourne-based filmmakers,
Stephen Di Gravio and Xavier Brydges.
With a friendship born out of a broken 50mm lens and years of being mistaken for one another at film school, the two filmmakers decided to morph into a single gelatinous blob and continue pursuing their passion for storytelling under the umbrella of KIT3.

Produced during the COVID-19 pandemic,Good Gnocchi went on to premiere at the first ever Catchlight Film Festival (Formerly Sony Film Festival) and serves as a loving homage to the people who raised him.
In 2023 Stephen launched the monthly community filmmaking event 'The Untitled Movie Project', aimed at encouraging creatives to produce and showcase their experimental work in a positive and inclusive environment. Stephen's work continues with his postgraduate film, Anna, which garnered a 2023 Australian Directors Guild Award nomination and went on to premiere at the 2024 St Kilda Film Festival.
