About me.
I'm Aviva, a filmmaker and visual storyteller based in Melbourne, currently in my third year of Film & TV at Swinburne University. My work spans narrative short films, music videos, live concert films, and artist documentaries, always centred on capturing the moments that can't be staged.
I'm drawn to filmmaking that demands you be present and instinctive. My favourite shoots are the ones where you don't get a second take and the best moments have to be earned.
Music has always run alongside my filmmaking. I've spent years at gigs, festivals, and choral concerts across Victoria, and that immersion directly shapes how I work on camera. Whether I'm shooting a live set or stepping into a producing role, I bring the same warmth and attention to whatever the job needs. I'm just as comfortable coordinating call times and managing locations as I am behind the camera.
I'm looking for opportunities where film and the live music world collide, creating content that's immediate, in the moment, and does justice to the experiences being built around it.
