I am young and full of energy , content and always desiring to work .
In my still modest route in this area, I helped by helping others to materialize their history, their most important vote in the world of art and culture and their communication to the world . Now , thanks to the invitation and confidence of my colleagues , I have my little opportunity to do the same , and enjoy through this adventure, the power of storytelling .
1st Director
Ana Lucia Duarte
I never could do only one thing - All filmaking areas arouse interest in me . But since I can not do everything , I decided to invest in a position in which is essential to know the state of all departments, at the same time I have a direct connection with realization and production . And so no one can accuse me of putting my nose where I shouldn't.
Production

Proactive , dynamic and spontaneous during her university studies made several shorts in the area of production and that's how she decided to grab this adventure !
Director of Photography
Mariana Ribeiro
It has always amazed me to think of an idea of continuity and movement within the world of photography . It is true to state that the film gives another dimension to photography . How can we transform an image so you are able to pass a certain idea ? What kind of light is it, that falls into this narrative ? Either way , putting cheap thoughts apart , observing and creating environments with light and image composition is one of the things that gives me more satisfaction. In fact the world we see every day could be a movie screen , but since there is interest ,and since we have a team lets make it better and more appealing ! And this is what I will do in the short film KOMBI give it the environment it needs and create its own image .
