Collectives Productions
Founder / Film Director
After Covid, I started Collectives Productions with a few friends and began making advertising films.
I handled creative work alongside clients, budgets, teams, and delivery. I also took on freelance assistant-directing assignments.
- Starting the company
- I launched with €32,000 in initial funding and generated €50,000 in first-quarter revenue.
- From brief to final cut
- I delivered 15+ films and advertising campaigns, including work for Meta, Park Avenue, and AMFI Mutual Funds.
- Working at scale
- I managed end-to-end production with crews of 100+.
