Student Films

A collection of student films and projects during my 4 year program at Humber College.

Male Gazed (2022)

Student Documentary

Directed by Assel Akhmetova Produced by Juan Pablo Sáenz

I was the sound recordist and sound editor for Male Gazed, a student documentary about the male gaze in commercial film, the manipulative nature of Hollywood elites, and the stereotypical archetypes of female characters from the perspective of female filmmakers.

The Thought That Counts (2022)

Student Film

Directed and Produced by Antony Gafarov

DISCLAIMER; This video addresses men's mental health, with an in-depth account of attempted suicide and domestic trauma.

An audio-only monologue from men struggling with their mental health, and their perspectives on the disproportionately high number of male suicides. This film was created by me from development to post-production during the COVID-19 lockdown, with interviews conducted online.

Bottom of the Bottle (2021)

Student Film

Directed by Kiana Smith

Produced by Jasmine George

I was the co-writer of Bottom of the Bottle, as well as the sound recordist and sound editor. This surrealist drama follows an alcoholic forced into a purgatory where they confront their inner demons.

Chasing Your Dreams (2020)

Student Film

Directed by Imani Reid

Produced by Antony Gafarov

A brief interview with Toronto artist Anwar Cushnie. This was the very first film I made coming into Humber College, with minimal experience prior, but I took charge of producing and coordinating with Anwar, as well as editing the film.
