My name is Ibrahim Salawu. I am a writer-director/3d modeller seeking work opportunities in the film, television and VFX industries.
I recently gained an MA in scriptwriting at Goldsmiths University, which gave me invaluable insights into script reading and development.
In addition, I also completed a 3d foundation course at Escape Studios, which made me a proficient Maya user and helped me develop my 3d modelling skills.
My extensive experience with writing and producing short films has made me accustomed to the duties of a creative coordinator such as scheduling all stages of production; mediating meetings; carrying out location recces, and organising castings.
