My first job was as a film projectionist. Yes, like Toto in Cinema Paradiso. Before that, when I was still a student, I did illustrations for children's and coffee table books. I also worked for NGOs and the school paper. I did artworks for booths, greeting cards and can labels. I painted murals for home ceilings and restaurants. I painted roads and pavements and the green or blue backgrounds used in tv commercial shoots. I also tried to express my idealism by using red paints on government walls and made effigies for hardliners to burn. These are what I used to do before I became an Art Director.
