A creative production house that brings a new and eclectic generation of filmmaking to the table from features, commercials, and editorial content. DIRECTORIAL BIO: Los Angeles based director/writer. Having a background in film/TV/ commercial production and assisted/shadowed some of the most sought after directors and production affiliates in the business, I have grasped the art and knowledge of filmmaking to a professional level. I've produced and shot multiple disciplinary content from commercials to editorial shorts, and soon features. In 2012, I shot a spec spot for the clothing brand, Zara, and was a finalist for the Saatchi and Saatchi Video Challenge. My ability to showcase imperfections of human life is at an instant. Primary style and concentration is relatable and emotional storytelling that crosses from historical to contemporary events (fictional and non-fictional).
