Media and Film Studies- Golden rules of how to tell a story.
Serious endeavouring to entertain through media studies, particularly filmmaking, and current affairs.
After studying media and film, I worked at the BBC from 1989 to 1991 mainly as an assistant to chief documentary editor Jane Val Baker.
The following years, I directed several short films on communal subjects such as poverty, classism, racism, homelessness, social division and poverty. Throughout this decade I worked on numerous pop video clips (as an art director and director), and also TV commercials, eventually directing a Lee cooper ad. Towards the end of the 199O’s I directed a documentary on the popular hip- hop group the Fugees, before moving to Paris, France where I directed ‘Actress’, a wry comedy produced by the renowned Parisian production company Mic-Mac
In 2002 I wrote and directed my first feature film ‘Toothache’ aka ‘Rage De Dent’, a bitter satirical comedy following a group of bored middle class artists and their troubles in love during a weekend in Paris. Starring Julie Depardieu, Ludivine Sagnier ‘Toothache’ (rage de dent) was produced by Arte France Cinema and Mic Mac productions.
My second feature length film ‘Nadine’ was shot in September 2006. The film follows a teenage self-harmer her fatal battle with mental health issues. Nadine premiered at the Odyssee Cinema in Strasbourg, France in July 2008 as part of the British cycle of films alongside Ken Loach’s ‘The wind that shakes the barley’ and Stephan Frear’s ‘The Queen’. It was also shown in competition at Ghent film festival and Cork film festival, Rome international Film festival and several other international festivals.
Between 2011 and 2016, I was the co-author of several documentaries produced by France Televisions and the French-German TV channel ARTE.
In 2019 I was the co-author on the feature docudrama ‘In our paradise’, produced by Idéale Audience and directed by Claudia Marschal. ‘In our paradise’ premiered at DOC/FEST Sheffield in June 2019, and was selected at the Sarajevo Film Festival in August 2019, at the YIDFF in October 2019 and at the Cork Film Festival in November 2019.
2020 saw the completion of my 3rd film as a feature film director with the existentialist thriller ‘Man in wood’ featuring a special guest appearance from the talented singer/actress Lauryn Hill. Whilst also during the same year I created ‘The Black Victory’, an independent production and promotion platform for film, music and cultural content.

MEDIA TRAINING WORKSHOPS (TELEVISION AND RADIO)How to prepare for a media interview? What means should be used to fight his fear of the camera and improve his image? How to present yourself and your project in front of a camera?
How to present yourself and your project to the media?
Targeted content according to your project: Verbal and / or gestural communication; Seduction of the lens and / or microphone; Improvisation in front of a microphone and / or a camera; Voice & gaze; Games of one or two cameras; Chronic; Animation; Reportage; Direct radio & TV; Interview; Narration; Speech in all its forms (...)
In short, several objectives:
◾ Confront your shyness in front of the microphone / camera.
◾ Understand his speech and his diction.
◾ Taming the media environment (radio / tv).
◾ Familiarize yourself with your image and voice.
◾ Manage your speaking time.
Through exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentations, time management, etc.), role plays, interview simulations and familiarization with one's image and voice, the participants move at their own pace in a flexible educational framework.
Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.
Indeed, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, which, while taking care of its image, is based on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction) and an emotion (the imagination and the sensations ) reflecting the speaker's involvement in his speech. How to send a clear message? How to make the difference, to make an impression?
Knowing how to speak, act and interact in public is almost a necessity today: your public speaking must be effective and efficient with clear, simple and powerful messages.
Simple and pragmatic tools will be presented for: generating listening ● making an impression ● fostering confidence ● generating need ● motivating teams by explaining a strategy ● getting messages across within groups ● overcoming shyness by assimilating 3 CRV axes (body-breathing-voice) ● better manage disagreement or conflict.
Mastered, the method allows:
• improve self-confidence and stress management with the development of the speaker's fluency (verbal-bodily), his public speaking and his sense of repartee and improvisation.
• to work on their ease, leadership, charisma, creativity and personal development through scenarios.
* improve the characteristics of the spoken voice (timbre, pitches, intention, flow).
* get your message across through your image, while gaining improvisation skills and responsiveness.
Supplemented by basic exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentation, time management), role plays, improvisations and simulations. With the key word: pronunciation, diction / articulation, the sense of repartee.
Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions. ( study 2020).
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication and public speaking, in renowned international public and private establishments, intervening in forums and conferences, and oriented on pedagogy and careful methodology.
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.
These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of live (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (example: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours!

I can't wait to learn Turkish with you.🤗 I love teaching Turkish. If you want, I would like to briefly tell you how we can learn Turkish.🤓 First, in our first lesson, we determine your level together📝 and start our lessons suitable for your level. Our lessons include reading📕, writing✏️, listening🧏🏽♀️, and speaking🗣️. I want you to read and translate reading passages in the reading section. Here, we write down and memorize the new words and verbs we learn.🧠 Then, after listening to a text related to our topic, I want you to explain in Turkish what you understood. Of course, understanding the texts might be a bit difficult at first, but we overcome this and learn together. 💪Then, we come to the most fun part, of course, the speaking part. In this part, we talk about the texts we have read and listened to before. Of course, we try to use new words and verbs more. I love people who talk a lot in my classes. It's not a problem even if it gives me a bit of a headache🤕😁 As long as you learn🙏❤️. And finally, I give you a writing assignment related to the topic and eagerly await our next lesson.

Content Creation, Videography, Editing and NetworkAs a self-taught editor, I always wished for some guidance when it came to figuring out how to go about making an edit, finding sponsors, following trends and networking. What kind of content are we making? What is the client brand? How do we ensure the viewer stays entertained throughout the video? What are the sponsors wishes and how do we meet them? After 3 years of trial and error, I managed to figure out many effective and easy ways to deliver the best content. When trying to grow your portfolio, and develop as a film/videographer it's important to have an ever growing network of fellow editors! Send me a message if you are looking to work on anything editing, videography, socials or content related!

Italian Lessons in person. Individual or Group classes.Come join an informal Italian class!
After years of experience, I can tell that private lessons in the city are the most engaging and fun we can have :)
Let's take an espresso and speak spontaneously in Italian.
We can have more structured lessons, starting with my explanation, or more free, using random topics.
I like to use flashcards, elicited conversations, realistic dialogues, written inputs, and much more.
I'm happy when my students ask me for specific topics or questions, so please be spontaneous and proactive :)
We can have a short lesson (45 minutes), a normal lesson (60 minutes), or a long lesson (90 minutes).
One or two times a week.
Individual or group classes.
We can first meet online, so you start knowing me and you decide if you would like to meet in person.
Don't hesitate to contact me.
