A short, atmospheric video ad capturing a suspended freeze-frame in time: a mother and daughter walking along a sidewalk against a pink wall, a sudden stumble, and an ice cream cone floating upward into mid-air before reaching the traffic light.
The piece features a cinematic street photography aesthetic enhanced by a custom CRT monitor effect featuring subtle static, scanlines, Gaussian blur, and a high vignette combined with subtle digital glitches to emphasize the temporal distortion. A short, impactful, and visually captivating loop.

Many tries for one effect. That's the honest story of the Inward headline
Inward is a concept landing page I made for noise-cancelling headphones. I wanted the words NOISE TO FOCUS to react to the cursor
Particles came first. Glitch with doubled letters broke reading. Grain was next, then crumbs, which felt dirty. Halftone was too graphic
I went back to particles, made them gentler and kept them only under the cursor. That one stayed
The video shows every version, one after another
None of the dropped versions were wasted. Each one showed what the product didn't want
Which version would you have shipped?
Super cool!
Based in Montenegro. Shooting across the Balkans.
I’ve been living in Budva since 2022, and I’m available for on-site shoots in Montenegro, Serbia and nearby.
20+ years behind the camera and in the edit: fashion, editorial, brand films, hospitality. Past work for Vogue, Esquire, Port Magazine, The Rake and SHOWstudio.
If you’re planning a campaign, a hotel or villa film, or a fashion story on the Adriatic coast, I can handle it end to end: shoot, edit and colour.
Message me with your dates and idea.

A doctor films on her phone. I turn it into explainer reels: a 3D smartwatch, data cards that build with her words, captions and sound design, all inside the Instagram safe zones.
Left: raw footage. Right: the finished reel.
