Hello, I’m Mark and I hail from Cyprus, a beautiful island located in the Mediterranean Sea, way out East. Filmmaking has been my whole life even before I graduated from Canterbury Christ Church University, UK with a Bachelor of Arts degree (First) in Film and Digital Arts & Media in 2008. My work varies from working as a commercial Filmmaker – Directing and Cinematography for & social brand content, TV and Web adverts, to documentaries, short films & music videos. In 2016 I launched Thelum, a video production studio fueled by passion, that helps people, brands & businesses create content that feels real, bold and resonates with their audience. My vision is to produce video content based on the client’s strategy and objectives, that will spark emotion, grab attention but most importantly, make their message heard
