Leandro Teixeira Carvalho, 23-years-old. Born in London, England, and of Portuguese Ethnicity.
Leandro is a highly disciplined individual, whose interest has always been in and around the world of arts & creativity.
From high school, until now, Leandro has always preferred the creative path over the academic, exceeding in subjects and interests like Art, Music, Theatre & Film. What stands out for Leandro, however, is his urge to take on the responsibility of writing and directing in his own way, not being afraid to take risks or failure itself.
Graduating from the University of Greenwich, with Bachelor's Honours in Film & Television Production, Leandro's drive to work and film is all he wishes to do. And as a junior filmmaker, for him, it is all about collaboration. Leandro has worked with a plethora of those like himself but he wishes to continue this trait.
As Leandro makes his debut in the industry, with a short documentary called 'Vibes & Harmony', he aims to continue building his portfolio and go into the festival scene. Telling stories that are powerful in their message, and that have a visual edge for an immersive experience.
