It’s been a beautiful summer here in Denmark. Right now, I’m working as a freelancer for the United International Pictures Denmark, in their publicity department. So far, I’ve been a part of movies such as “Gladiator,” “Shrek,” “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider,” “MI:2,” “The Fast and the Furious,” “Traffic,” “The Mummy Returns,” “Cast Away,” and others; but that’s not all. I’ve had the pleasure of being a part of the crew for the new Thomas Vintererg film, “It’s All About Love,” starring Joaquin Phoenix and Claire Danes.

I am sending you to let you know what I’ve been up to since I went back home to Paris, France. I went back to school to study executive production and script writing. I started to work on different short films as an executive producer and director’s assistant.
I am now working for a film production company for television and theater as, what you would call in the U.S., a script doctor and art director. I’m now also working in production for two short films, including one that I will direct. I would like to thank all of my instructors, and of course, Jerry, for all the support they gave me while I was in school.

After graduating from NYFA, I immediately got a job as a second assistant director on an independent film with David Klein (cinematographer of “Chasing Amy,” “Mallrats, and “Clerks”). I was also production coordinator for another film, two specs for Coca-Cola, and a music video.

I’m really thrilled to keep in touch with all of you who inspired me to make my first feature film. I am happy to say “The Outhouse” was the official Indian entry to Cannes. I am also the recipient of two Best New Director Awards at the national and international levels. All this happened due to NYFA.

I kept with my faith, pushed harder and was accepted into the New York International Film Festival where my film “Emulsion” was screened twice throughout the week to packed theaters. There were roughly 150 films being screened at this event. Then, I was hit with bigger news that my film was selected into the Cannes Film Festival. This is exactly the type of market I need to be looking at my film. I’m pretty excited. Who knows, maybe something will happen! None of this would be possible without your incredible school.
