Short film
My final university project for my minor in Cinematic Arts involved creating a complete short film. I selected the theme of trauma and drew inspiration from classic horror films, incorporating a contemporary VFX approach.

Personal photography & film projects
I have long had a passion for photography, having participated in a photography club throughout my high school years. Currently, I enjoy spending time in nature to capture photographs, and I also occasionally create short films to further develop those skills.

Bolex 35mm short films
One of my university projects for my minor in Cinematic Arts involved creating a short film on 35mm film using a Bolex camera. This was my favorite university project due to the tangible nature of the medium and the camera. I appreciated the challenge of planning shots and movements while considering the need to wind the camera and the limited amount of film available on each roll.
