Simeon Granitsky

I was born on November 21, 1991 in the city of Sofia in a family of artists. From a young age, I have been nurtured with an attitude towards art in all its manifestations. The environment in which I grew up gave me the opportunity to look for aesthetics in everything, to develop a sense of beauty and an individual approach to its expression. Since my childhood, I have loved stories - reading them and creating them, and my first attempts at the shooting was at a game with friends. I have always been fascinated by magical characters, which I very often see in my dreams. In my subjects, I am influenced by the mythological and fairy tales that lie at the bottom of the human psyche, and I rely on those symbols in the visual narrative that touch the soul and provoke the mind.

Thanks to my drawing skills, I easily convey my ideas to others with storyboards and paintings. My passion for cinema has enriched me with film culture and models to draw from and inspire me, some of them are the great Michelangelo Antonioni, Bernardo Bertolucci, Paulo Sorrentino, Orson Welles, Terry Gilliam, Ridley Scott, Terrence Malick, David Fincher , James Cameron, Francis Ford Coppola, George Lucas, Peter Jackson and others. My interest in multifaceted development in the fields of art also draws me to music. I started composing 14 years ago. as over time I developed skills with a variety of instruments, which I also combine with electronic sound. I combine my visual narratives with musical ones, and in order to achieve authentic images I make sets, puppets and models. Handcrafting achieves a one-of-a-kind effect.

Creating the worlds from my imagination is a process I devote myself fully to and consider most intimate. It is for this reason that I have trained myself as a connoisseur in every field and have tried myself in every activity to taste a finished film product. I believe that a good director must know the work of the whole team for the sake of quality management of the project. I appreciate value and aesthetics in my work, it is important for me to work with like-minded people who are ready to live in new spaces and boldly expand their horizons.
