Working Process

Filmmaking is a long, but enjoyable process for me. The process of creating a project is pretty straightforward. To me, this should be any filmmaker's working process.

  • Understanding your project

    Studying your project is an initial priority for me

    My rule number one is to study your project and to have a comprehensive understanding of it. I have learned that knowledge is power and I believe it applied to all aspects of life.

    01.
  • Discussing your goals

    My second priority is to know your objectives

    Knowing your objectives by the project you would like to execute, would help me plan my steps to help you achieve them in a shorter amount of time and less cost.

    02.
  • Initiating the execution

    Your idea or project is now ready for execution

    This is when I start executing the project. All aspects have been discussed and agreed upon, every angle has been carefully assessed and the project begins.

Resume
