I began making films when I started studying journalism at university. It was completely extracurricular and fuelled only by my enthusiasm for filmmaking.
Petalled Apologies was my first short film. It was an incredible experience. Since then, I have been finding ways to improve my directing skills.
I am happy to report that my film sets are often some of the most “smooth, unproblematic and calm” that students have worked on.
Time Line was the first film in which I was both directing and acting. It was enjoyable going between pre-prepared notes, self critiquing, and experimentation. It was a great challenge and opened my eyes to the acting experience. As a result, I aim to take a new layer of empathy to actors when instructing them what to do.
