MY journey
My name is Alec Merey, and I've always been captivated by the magic of movies. From the earliest age, I found myself immersed in the storytelling power of film, and that passion only grew stronger as I pursued my education. Graduating from NYU Tisch School of the Arts with a BFA in Film & TV Production was just the beginning of my cinematic journey.
What truly fuels my creative fire is the idea of exploring the world and capturing its unique stories. As a freelance travel photographer, I've had the privilege of witnessing and documenting diverse cultures and breathtaking landscapes. Each experience added a new layer to my understanding of storytelling, shaping me into the filmmaker I am today.
Co-founding Mera Mera Productions was a pivotal moment for me. It allowed me to not only direct and write but also delve into animation and editing, crafting award-winning short films and commercials. Working with major studios like Disney, NBC Universal, Dreamworks, Sony, and Paramount during my time at Outpost Media gave me invaluable insight into the intricacies of post-production and large marketing campaigns.
My love for movies goes hand in hand with my dream to travel the world, telling stories that resonate with people from all walks of life. I believe that with a keen eye for detail, effective communication skills, and proficiency in industry-standard software I can continue pushing creative boundaries and delivering exceptional visual storytelling experiences across various media platforms. It's not just about making films; it's about creating meaningful connections through the art of cinema.
