I have a Diploma on new media and documentary production from the ΙRIS audiovisual lab and been working as a Director, Editor, 2D and 3D animator since 2001 creating numerous TV commercials for companies and agencies. My first animated movie “ZooTV” won the award as the best experimental film at the festival “Strange Screen” and I have participated at many festivals with video – art work. My involvement with music, painting, sculpture, comics and street theater helps me to deepen and understand better the art of cinema.

“Phone Call from Cairo”, 2012, 4:55
“Phone Call from Cairo” is made by material shot in Cairo one year before the Tahrir rebellion using a small photo camera. Although the situation in Egypt did not seem to be good, my friend used to believe that the Egyptian people was far from revolting. After two years I had to make this phone call to my friend and face the challenge to compose my pictures from Cairo.
