Portfolio for UWE Bristol
Advertisement Assignment
We were assigned to make a 30 second commercial in which we had to advertise a product, service or a place. My team decided to advertise a bottle of wine called "Simply Red", inspired by University student's wish for cheap but tasty option in the shops. In post-production, we tried to go for a "cartoon-like" style as we could use any creative film techniques. We tried to achieve that by adding excessively audible sound effects and by broad set design.

Space Assignment
Working in Producer/Director pairs, we were assigned make a film exploring what the notion of
‘space’ means to us. Our goal was to convey the feeling of oppression within oneself caused by past event that hasn't been resolved yet without any spoken word throughout the video. We expressed that by adding sound effects indicating happiness and by special effects.

Space Assignment 2
In post-production, we tried to go for less dynamic tempo as we wanted the actors to convey the emotions. I worked with foley for the first time on this project and the outcome helped us "animate" the story a bit more.

Short Drama Assignment
With the story being based on the Biblical story about Cain and Abel, we wanted the story to come off rough while still maintaining rising tension. We achieved that by implementing various sizes of shots such as close-up, big close-up, extreme close-up, long shot, and others.

Passion Projects
Inspiration was gained from various music videos and trends of today’s media culture.
I tried implementing motion design and graphic design into a fast-paced music video-like project. Used footage belongs to Emporio Armani as their original advertisements are very broad in style, enabling me to explore my creativity easily.
Each project finished in 1 day.

Stills from my first short film (2019)
What was initially meant to be a prom video grew into a full short film with the run time of 11 minutes. The story is about time travel after a physical calculation went wrong. We worked in a really small group and thus had to obtain props and secure locations on our own. Although the production was small, we worked with extensive amount of 'actors' in different ages, used visual and special effects, recorded our own original soundtrack, made costumes, and coordinated everything.

Academic writing
A scholarly essay reflecting on film styles and movements. I chose to write about question no.1: "To what extent can your chosen film (Man With a Movie Camera) be seen as representative of ONE of these film styles/
movements (Art Cinema)."
movements (Art Cinema)."
In this paragraph I talked about similarities and differences in the film's and movement's editing.
