What is the first movie experience you remember?
The first thing I remember is when I was little, I watched a lot of "Regína", I thought it was very entertaining.
What fascinates you about filmmaking?
There are so many things that fascinate me about filmmaking. Such a diverse profession and no day is the same. It's so much fun to be on set and work with ambitious people and create work you're proud of.
Why did you choose your department?
I have always been very interested in acting and filmmaking. I chose Acting to learn the basics of acting and get out of my comfort zone.
Did anything particularly surprise you in the study?
The course has been very fun and experiential. I am so grateful to have met a lot of talented and funny people, and to have made very good friends. What has surprised me is how much I have learned in other departments also outside of acting, such as producing, editing, writing scripts and more.
And what does the future look like?
Hopefully I will get to work on something related to filmmaking, whether it's acting, producing, make-up or something else. It is a dream come true to work on what you are passionate about.
