Filmmaking Behind-the-Scenes
Storyboarding
I move a concept from idea generation to storyboarding.
Script Writing
A good script begins with a great idea and well-laid out plans to unveil the story.
Set & Prop Design
Whether through 3-D printing, woodworking, sewing, or painting, I handle every aspect of production design.
Filming
I scout out locations and direct actors to make the storytelling come to fruition.
Post Production
From color grading to splicing scenes to overlaying film with sounds, post-production editing is where the magic begins.
Square1Films
I created Square1Films, born out of a love for movies. At an early age, theaters were my happy place because films spoke to my imagination. I would unravel the complexities of time-space dimension in Interstellar while marveling at Thanos obliterating the world with one snap of his fingers. What started as movie dissections and reviews on Letterboxd evolved into something greater: hours spent writing, collaborating, filming, and editing to create films that reflect the questions and ideas I care about most.
