Creative Director and Film Industry Innovator
With a Master of Fine Arts in Film/Cinema/Video Studies from Tel Aviv University and a Bachelor's degree in Multi/Interdisciplinary Studies from NYU Gallatin, I have cultivated a diverse skill set in the creative industry. My professional journey began as a Junior Assistant in Video Production at Scott Rudin Productions, where I honed my technical skills. I then transitioned to a Location Scout role at Miramax, contributing to Alexander Payne's film, The Holdovers. As a Video Editor at Offline Films, I worked on various music videos, showcasing my editing prowess. In 2020, I founded SILVERLINING, where I serve as Chief Creative Officer, driving creative direction and business operations. My experience as an Associate Producer at Danger Danger Inc allowed me to collaborate with industry professionals like Zach Shields. My interdisciplinary education and varied experience underscore my commitment to innovation and storytelling in the film industry.

Projects

Universe

Filmed in the majestic Oceana sand dunes, Akshara’s song Universe is about female empowerment. Sung in both Hindi and English, the song speaks to the divine feminine and its role in the dynamics of love. Akshara’s green outfit relates her to the power of Mother Nature, further reflected against the backdrop of the mountains and ocean. Akshara looks dominant and independent against the vast landscape.See More

ABC / An American Rendez-Vous in Tel Aviv

ABC is an urban western set in the chaos of Tel Aviv. Part of Tel Aviv University’s MFA program, ABC is a trilingual heist film where several parties search for the same priceless heirloom: a $1.2 million watch. Erratic characters weave through streets and languages as they attempt to either find or keep hold of the treasure. Any and all are willing to trample or end whoever comes in between them and their goal. The film explores the global chain reaction of capitalism and the inevitable lack of moral code it instills in its victims. 
RECOGNITION: Venezia Shorts Semifinalist, New York Indie Shorts Awards Semifinalist, Montreal Independent Film Festival, Roma Prisma Film Awards, etc.See More

ATLAS

Atlas by Station 26 is inspired by its mythological namesake, Atlas, the Titan who was condemned by the Gods to carry the weight of the world on his shoulders. The music video takes the concept of Atlas punishment and relates it to the artist: the artist’s insight and sensitivity to the surrounding world can often feel like an unbearable weight and hinder artistry. Filmed at the iconic Lake Cuddieback in California’s Mojave Desert, the film follows Evan Blainey, the lead vocalist and guitarist of Station 26, as he embarks on a spiritual journey to release the artist’s weight in order to create more freely. On his journey, he is met by Nikki Cremmen, a muse and guide, and Jack Dove, the other band leader, who grounds Evan with a rap verse in true wisdom.See More

Trust Me, Honey

Carly and I grew up 5 minutes down the road from each other. We had lost touch for no reason other than life. When I saw she was playing a live show in LA, I figured I’d go and see her. A week later I was in the mountains shooting her a music video for Trust Me, Honey, a personal and nostalgic song that uses music to create and bring back memories with those we no longer have the chance to. RECOGNITION: Featured by MTVSee More

ENERGY

Filmed in DTLA, Energy is about explosiveness. It’s about dance and expression, about unleashing your unique, individual fire for all the world to see, not simply the ones you feel comfortable around. Sorab is an up-and-coming rap artist with English flows and Punjabi swagger.See More
