Robert Tapert has 0 productions in the Nutevio catalogue. Robert Gerard Tapert (/ˈtæpərt/; born May 14, 1955) is an American film and television producer, writer and producer. He is best known for co-creating the television series Xena: Warrior Princess.

The recognisable elements are visual style, rewatchability, originality. Watch two of these films back to back and the method separates from the material — the same eye, re-tuned for different registers. It is a style built on what is withheld as much as what is staged.
Tapert set terms other filmmakers now work against: the structures, the pacing and the refusal to explain. Awards bodies have often been slower than the work, which is usually the sign of a career built on choices rather than campaigns.
