Stories are at the core of our existence. They shape our beliefs, our personalities, our way of functioning in society. They help us define what is right from what is wrong, and all the grey areas in between. As filmmakers, we tell stories inspired by our understanding of reality. We have to tell - within the limits of budget, human resources, equipment, environment, weather conditions, global pandemics, and all other uncertainties and accidents - a story and offer, eventually, a film to share with and inspire other human beings. Since 2011, Mei Fa has worked as a freelance film director and producer in Switzerland. She has directed several short films, including Time Machinery (2019), which toured festivals around the globe.
Mei Fa imagines critically acclaimed narrative and creative films for the music video industry. With her music video “PTTFLR” (2018) for Fabe Gryphin, she was awarded in 2019 at the Solothurner Filmtage and in 2021, “Power” for Muthoni Drummer Queen was named Best Swiss Video Clip of the year at the M4Music Festival.
In 2016, she joined the team of the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival, directing a diversity of films for live music.
Naturally curious, Mei Fa has shot projects all over the world, from Switzerland, Canada, Kenya and the United Arab Emirates.
Between music, fiction and narration, Mei Fa explores humanity through personal and inspired film creations. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
