CHAOS

Original Web Series

CHAOS is my passion project, a gripping audiovisual story that explores complex themes of grief, hate, addiction, revenge, and heartbreak. 

 

As a student at NHL Stenden, I directed and produced a scripted drama web series, that premiered in 2022 on

 Matters.frl.

 

I poured my heart and soul into the project, crafting a visually stunning and emotionally resonant series that speaks to the power of human relationships. I believe that Chaos will inspire and move audiences, encouraging them to reflect on their own experiences.

 

“Chaos” is a gripping original web series that tells the powerful story of Chaos, Olivia, and Alex, three best friends grappling with the aftermath of a classmate’s suicide. Over four intense episodes, viewers are taken on a journey through the days leading up to and following the shocking event, as the characters navigate psychological trauma, addiction, and heartbreak.

“The Late Night Podcast,” or “Подкаст по никое време” in Bulgarian, is a vibrant and entertaining project that I launched in collaboration with my friend and seasoned radio/TV presenter Raya Topuzakova. Drawing on her extensive knowledge of the media landscape in Bulgaria, and my expertise in media production, we have created a lighthearted podcast that offers witty and irreverent commentary on the latest news and political developments in our country.

 

As hosts, Raya and I infuse each episode with our unique brand of humor and irony, bringing a fresh and engaging perspective to the topics at hand. Our chemistry and rapport create an energetic and enjoyable listening experience that has garnered a growing fanbase in Bulgaria and beyond.

With “The Late Night Podcast,” we are committed to entertaining and informing our audience, offering a much-needed break from the serious and often overwhelming news cycle.
