Only 51 more weeks until #PanicFest2025 !

Editors, with the line up out, here’s a reminder that I will be in Cannes and still have capacity to take on assignments. Would love to hear from editors old and new. Let’s work together! Email in bio, DMs open and portfolio below ⬇️ rafiews.com

Just a reminder: Films aren't successful because the make a ton of money or because they are selected by a prestigious festival, they are successful when they connect with people. There are a lot of ways that can happen.

I’m currently outside Debussy waiting to get in MEGALOPOLIS. The queue is manageable so far, only 5 weeks and a day left to wait #Cannes2024

SEE NO EVIL remake, sure, but where can we watch SEE NO WEEVIL?
