Once upon a time before becoming a mom, I was spending long hours in post-production companies doing post-production things…
I’ve done broadcast design,tv commercials, feature films and documentaries. The dynamics of making art move fascinates me. I love motion graphics. I love videos. I want to get back on it again. I still want to learn a lot and to add more to this reel. 🙂

I was very honored to be part of this production. Did the editing, graphics and color grading for this piece. This is a celebration of the an indigenous Māori tribe whose origins trace from early ancestors that lived in Aotearoa, New Zealand, since around 950AD.
This piece won the 16th Annual Communicator Award of Excellence under Film/Video Category and the gold award at the prestigious W3 Awards in LA
Literally the coolest project I’ve ever been involved with. It’s a documentary about how it’s like to live in Antarctica for a year. I was in awe when I first saw the rough cut, the imagery was like those you see in Discovery Channel. Breathtaking landscapes, amazing time-lapse footages and an awesome story. Just phenomenal! The film is part of 2013 New Zealand International Film Festival. Written and Directed by Antony Powell. Though my role in this documentary may not that be big, I am just so honored to be part of such a wonderful film!
I was responsible for the Opening billboard and the graphics.
The film has garnered several recognition internationally.
Audience choice award best adventure reel. Breckenridge Film Festival
Best Documentary. Calgary International Film Festival.

How cool is that!

And won its first Special Award at the Balinale International Film Festival in Bali, Indonesia.
