As a filmmaker who’s lived and traveled to different parts of the world, I've established a wide network of freelance filmmakers and animators in the area. With over 10 years of experience in directing, editing, writing, and producing commercials, music videos, corporate videos, NGO videos, as well as films, and albeit, graduating with a BA in Accounting, it’s safe to say that I am fully capable of managing big production sets, from creating the concept and storyboards to finding the right team for the job, to execution, post-production, down to the final delivery.
