I’m a film director and editor based in Portugal, striving to blend the nostalgic charm of old film with the visual richness of classical painting, all while embracing the demanding languages of modern storytelling. In my work, I love to reshape and recontextualize a tapestry of references, transforming them into fresh and evocative narratives. I’ve directed music videos for acclaimed artists like A garota não, Blasted Mechanism, João Gil, Chullage, Al-Qasar, Um Corpo Estranho, Celina da Piedade, Lura, and Alim Qasimov, amongst many others, and have also had the privilege of filming Matthieu Ricard. My portfolio also includes capturing the spirit of music festivals with after-movies for events like MEO Marés Vivas and MEO Sudoeste, as well as directing the first two seasons of the Portuguese MTV It Girls. In addition to music, I’ve collaborated with renowned brands such as Banco Alimentar Contra a Fome, Sony, Coca-Cola, Acciona, Remax, LG, Brisa, and Trib3, and worked with the Municipalities of Setúbal and Évora. I’m always eager to embrace new professional challenges and turn creative ideas into reality. Take a moment to explore my showreel—I’d love for my next project to be yours.
