Mar(Celo Basilio) Barbosa
Born and raised in São Paulo, Brazil, I've been passionate about cinema since childhood, always aspiring to work in the industry. I began creating videos at the age of 7 with my mother’s VHS camera. In later years, I produced small narrative videos on YouTube, which led me to study Filmmaking at the New York Film Academy in Los Angeles, California.
I graduated with the top thesis in my class, "Restauro," which earned me several awards at various film festivals. Currently, I am focused on developing my first feature film while working as a professional Colorist by the name of Celo.
