Personal Projects & Experiments

Riyad’s Dream (2023)

In the last few years I have delved deep into Jungian psychology and the exploration of the unconscious through dreams.

My friend Riyad and I conceptualised a short dream sequence where he grapples with internal conflict involving his father. The main idea was to use a surreal situation and abstract symbolism to evoke emotions that cannot be expressed through words.

Pixilation Experiment (2022)

Inspired by filmmaker Pascal Baes’ pixilation style and Takashi Ito’s avant-garde masterpiece ‘Grim’.

A very brief experiment I tried a couple of years ago. I played around with time-lapse in an unorthodox way where I used a slow shutter and, every so often, turned the zoom ring while taking some of the photos, which created this interesting zoom effect at the beginning of the video.

Moon Time-Lapse From My Bedroom Window (2022)

It was a clear night and the moon was full and massive. I couldn’t resist filming it on my Blackmagic 6K Pro. It took about 40 minutes for it to enter and leave the frame. Seeing it sped up and moving like in the video was fun!
