I'm Stefan, film producer and founder of SceneScreens. I've worked in production, development, finance, and distribution across multiple European countries for over a decade, giving me a full-spectrum view of the film industry. I also teach film finance and marketing at university level in London and have been involved in film festival judging and industry speaking, which gives me firsthand insight into what makes films stand out.

Alongside our work as a social media marketing agency, we see how difficult it is to break into the film industry. Emerging filmmakers often struggle not because of a lack of talent, but because the industry itself is complex and fragmented. Finance, distribution, and market positioning are rarely explained clearly or practically, or presented in an order that shows where to begin.

I offer one-to-one mentoring and practical digital guides for students and early-career filmmakers who need clarity, guidance, and hands-on tools to advance their careers.
