APPROACH
What is reality? How do we understand it? How do we represent it?
My approach to filmmaking is a delicate dance between keen observation and personal introspection. I try to become a participant throughout the filmmaking process.
Imagine a camera that doesn’t just film, but feels. It captures the unspoken tensions in a crowded room, the flicker of a hidden desire in someone’s eyes, the way sunlight paints a moment with unexpected poetry. This is the essence of my observational style. I immerse myself in the world around me, letting the details speak for themselves, try to guide the narrative or the emotion with an invisible hand.I feel this personal touch adds a layer of authenticity and emotional resonance, allowing viewers to connect with the spaces and characters I introduce.
It’s about capturing the human experience in all its raw beauty and complexity, through the lens of meticulous observation and unfiltered personal expression.
