 | about me I am a graduate filmmaker from Portugal living in London. Before coming to London, I’ve worked as director, editor, assistant director and assistant producer on several media and film productions. In Portugal I directed and edited short films, music videos and institutional videos. I’ve also been in Brazil. There I’ve worked with leading production companies in Rio de Janeiro, having worked as assistant director and production assistant in top brand commercials and as assistant director in a highly successful Brazilian feature: “O Primo Basílio”. I came to London trough InovContacto, an AICEP - Portugal Global program witch selects the top graduates in our country. The program, financed by the Portuguese goverment, is set to promote cultural and business interchange, allowing Portuguese graduates to meet new markets, countries and people and therefore enhancing the Portuguese economy. Under this program, I’ve worked as Video Producer at the Video Department of CBS Interactive, the largest online-only publisher in the UK. I had a multi-tasking role in the company including producing recording editing and publishing high quality videos and podcasts for the interactive sites of the core brands of the company, such as Cnet.co.uk, Silicon.com, Gamespot.co.uk, ZDnet.co.uk and TV.com. I then worked as video producer at Positive TV, a London-based online TV. There I honed my research and editorial skills, seeking compelling and inspirational content on a daily basis, finding stories that would engage larger and newer audiences. I also worked as project development manager, responsible for the content creation of a digital documentary on sustainable transportation. More recently I've been working as Content Producer at Flixmedia Lda. a global company leading the provision of online content solutions for manufacturers of consumer goods – including HP, Philips, Symantec, Dyson, Panasonic and Toshiba. It offers the world standard production of online product videos (QuikClips) and the distribution of manufacturers own content to the Flixmedia Global Distribution Network; Last year I attended Power to the Pixel Digital Forum at The Times/ BFI London Film Festival – a ground-breaking forum that brings together the leading innovators who are changing the way independent film and media is financed, created, distributed and reaches audiences. Since I know the director and producer of Power to the Pixel I had the opportunity to follow closely its development, network with the speakers, having privileged access to leading digital contacts.
