Student Made Films

One of the most significant projects I’ve worked on is my student-made documentary, Dreams and Reality. This film delves into the struggles faced by international students coming to study abroad, shedding light on the challenges they face in adapting to a new country, culture, and education system. 

This was a massive undertaking that spanned four months, and I had the privilege of working alongside a talented crew, including actors from the Humber Acting Program. As the producer, I was involved in every stage of the project, starting with pre-production. I coordinated permissions, obtained licenses, secured insurance, and took care of all the logistical aspects needed to ensure the shoot ran smoothly. I also played a key role in organizing schedules, managing the budget, and facilitating communication across the team.

Production was an intense period, filled with long shooting days using professional-grade equipment. We were fortunate to have access to top-tier cameras and lighting, which allowed us to capture high-quality footage. The crew worked together seamlessly, and the actors brought the script to life with their compelling performances.

In post-production, the real work began. We sifted through hours of footage, making countless cuts to shape the story and create a cohesive narrative. The process involved refining the pacing, ensuring the message was clear, and adjusting the audio to ensure the dialogue was crisp and balanced. Enhancing the audio was a key part of the process, as we worked with sound designers to remove background noise and ensure clarity in every scene.

Dreams and Reality represents not just a documentary, but the culmination of months of hard work, collaboration, and growth as a filmmaker. It allowed me to experience firsthand the full scope of filmmaking, from pre-production to post-production, and it reinforced my passion for storytelling. I’m proud of how the project turned out, and I’m excited to share this experience with you through this portfolio.

Currently, I’m working on another student-created project: a TV show pilot titled The Pie Commission. I’m excited to see this project unfold and look forward to sharing it with you once it’s finished!

Camera/Lighting Production 

In my Camera and Lighting class at Humber College, I’ve learned to craft compelling stories through shot composition, camera angles, and lighting techniques. The clips here highlight my use of 3-point lighting, dramatic contrasts, and natural lighting to shape subjects and set the mood.

From wide shots to close-ups, every choice reflects my focus on storytelling through visuals. These projects showcase my technical skills, creative vision, and adaptability, whether in studio settings or on-location shoots. This section represents my progress and passion for cinematography as I continue to refine my craft.

Editing Class

In my Editing class at Humber College, I worked on diverse projects, including judge segments, trailers, PSAs, documentaries, and fashion shows. Each project sharpened my skills in pacing, narrative flow, and bringing out the best in any footage.

I’ve become proficient with Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve, using advanced techniques like color grading, sound editing, and visual effects to elevate my work. These clips showcase my ability to craft seamless edits, from dramatic trailers to impactful documentaries, reflecting my technical expertise and creative growth.

Audio Production

In my Audio Production class at Humber College, I mastered Pro Tools for mixing and balancing audio tracks. From multitrack recording to EQ adjustments and automation, I’ve honed my skills in sound design and professional audio editing.

The featured clips—my rap and R&B mixes—demonstrate my ability to blend vocals, beats, and instrumentals while maintaining clarity and balance. Screenshots of my Pro Tools sessions showcase the meticulous layering and adjustments behind each mix, aiming to deliver immersive and polished soundscapes.
