Yannis Giannetakis
BA (Hons) Film and Moving Image Production
I was born in Athens in 1997. I recently graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Film and Moving Image Production from Norwich University of the Arts after having gained a diploma on Digital Filmmaking from SAE Athens. I am currently living and working in England and I am fluent in Greek and English as well as conversational in German.
The goal that I have set for myself is to work as a writer/director and be based in a European capital such as London, Berlin or Athens. My love for Athens -the city I grew up in- dictates the style of my work, and with its help I discover and create my concepts and to develop my craft in a way that I feel to be truthful both to myself and the audience.
My passion for sketching which I have developed since a very young age has also helped me very much in visualising my work in an effective way.
Throughout my studies I have had the chance to further understand that the ideas and concepts that interest me lie in the poetry and details of everyday life.
