Hi, I’m John.

I'm a Freelance Creative Producer working primarily in advertising, communications and fashion both for Motion and Stills Production.

My role is supporting production companies, agencies (either networks or independents) and freelance Directors or Photographers bring projects to life. 

That's either because you've a project that requires more experience of what your in-house team is ready for, or because the current workload is too much and you need external support.

My motto:
Great production makes the client, agency and crew feel confident ahead of the shoot day, calm throughout and excited after.

On the side, I create content online aiming to help junior people learn, mid level people reflect, and senior people resonate. 

Over time I've gathered a small audience which is beautiful to see as I knew no one when I first moved to the UK from Greece with zero experience but a fire in my soul to make this beautiful job my career. 

If you want to chat, or explore future collaborations get in touch.

My favourite talent out there at the moment?

Mohammed Al Nashmi. His food cinematography, his SFX work and his creative ideation is something I'm obsessed with. 

His latest work with Waba proves why. Produced by the awesome team at Shareet Studios.

🎥 Freelance Creative Producer. Doing the work and sharing insights I learn.

I show the creativity of Movies & 3D + AI | 3D Artist at ARJEANNIE | Film Industry Enthusiastic | Follow me for daily content about Movies, 3D and AI

I work in the space where cinema, visual storytelling, and cinematic 3D meet.

Movies shaped the way I think about stories long before I touched any tools.
Discovering 3D later on didn’t replace that love — it gave me a way to think visually about film, worlds, scale, and storytelling beyond the script.

What fascinates me most is not just how films look — but how they are designed:

How visual language supports story and emotion

How framing, composition, and scale guide the audience

How franchises and cinematic worlds are built long before production

I mean, this is my life!

My focus revolves around:

Film & series visual development

Cinematic world-building

Franchise and IP-driven storytelling

3D as a tool for narrative, previs, and visual exploration

Genre cinema (sci-fi, fantasy, dystopian worlds)

Through my work and writing, I explore how strong visual decisions made during development and pre-production shape the final cinematic experience — creatively and commercially.

Here on LinkedIn, I share:

Breakdowns of films, scenes, and franchises

Visual storytelling principles used by directors and designers

3D-driven explorations of cinematic ideas

Insights into why certain films feel cinematic — and others don’t

My profile is meant for filmmakers, producers, visual artists, and designers who care about story, craft, and the thinking behind the image.

🎥 Film is not just about what ends up on screen.
It’s about the decisions made long before the camera rolls.

What if Phoebe Buffay had LinkedIn?

Let’s have a look! Did you know that:

→ She actually never went to college 
→ As a kid she mugged Ross
→ She knows how to fight
→ She speaks French


FUN FACT:
Actress Lisa Kudrow was really pregnant during the triplet’s storyline – that’s why they wrote it!


What do you think about it?

Brave wasn’t a weak film

It was a misunderstood one.

Let me tell you a secret…

I LOVE that movie!

If you’ll ask a Pixar fan where would he rank the movie Brave among the other Pixar films, Usually the answer will be at the lower end.

That always bothers me. I love this movie, but why do most people think it’s a disappointment?

So I did a little research.

1 – It feels like a Disney movie, not Pixar

When you compare Brave for other Pixar films like The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, Toy Story, Up, etc. You can really see it’s a different kind of movie.
It feels more like Tangled than these kinds of movies.

I think for most people it was just another princess movie, and that’s Disney, not Pixar.

Trust me, if Brave was a Disney movie and not Pixar, the reaction would have been way better.

In fact, most people say that Brave and Wreck-it Ralph (both were released at the same year) were actually felt like each movie is from the other studio:

Brave was a Pixar movie that actually felt like a Disney movie.

Wreck-it Ralph was a Disney movie that actually felt like a Pixar movie.

I strongly believe that it would have received almost the same critical acclaim as Tangled, Frozen and Moana.

And let’s face it, it deserves it, because Brave is a wonderful movie!


2 – The marketing was misleading 

I haven’t watched the trailers before the movie, so I had no expectations or any knowledge about the plot, and I loved it.

But lots of people watched the trailers.

And the trailers showed a different kind of movie. More like a magical adventure full of mystery.

But the movie was actually a small scale drama about the relationship between Princess Merida and her mother.

It was so beautiful!

So, I think people expected a whole different movie, and got upset.


Still, if you haven’t watched it yet, you should!

The story is engaging and personal, the characters are amazing, the animation is so detailed (especially Merida’s hair).

The atmosphere of the setting is phenomenal, and you can really FEEL it!

The voice action is top notch, especially Kelly Macdonald as Merida.

And above all, a magical and beautiful Scottish score by Patrick Doyle!!

So, you should definitely watch Brave!!

Have you seen Brave?

P.S.
What is your favorite Disney movie?
