Director's Statement
Originally from Coimbra, Portugal, and based in Sheffield, UK, I’m a 29 year old performer and theatre and film director who started his professional path as an actor in 2014, and as a theatre director in 2016. Currently, I claim myself to also be a newly born film director as my love for the moving image has grown over the years, colliding into directing my first short film I SEE RED.
My projects aims to stimulate enthusiasts. They aim to energise but, most of all, they aim to inspire others to begin creating their own work as they come to realise that all artistic universes are valid.
It’s about making art that speaks as it’s being observed but also, more than that, art that speaks after it’s been observed, art that has an effect, art that generates doubt.
Silvestre C.
