Best Experimental Film 
Film Rosa
Every image is full of pink as well as every object, dress and every atmosphere, this color is used as a metaphor for the personal tragedy of each of us, a color that has always been sweetened, relegated to a habit for standard girls, in this film of about a quarter of an hour, it will be subverted in its meaning. 
Best Photography
Bound to Grow
My photographic approach is to try and capture movement or color in a way that creates a visceral response from the viewer when seeing a subject captured in this way. I want to draw the viewer in to the visual story that unfolds when I use my camera to seek out the essence of my subjects. Stories breathe life into images and forge connections to art in a way that still fills me with awe.

Best Experimental Film
A Leaf

Best Dance Video 
Zooming - Pandemic Dance No. 2
The film begins with an experiment for a dance on camera inspired by a technology with which we're all now spending considerable time, yet takes another path as it absorbs a personal tragedy - the death of my cousin. I invite the audience to join me in a fantasy about life outside, and to consider the fragmented nature of a medium which has become a substitute for connection even during the most precious moments of human experience.
