Anvari, Babak |
Date of birth
Tehran, Iran
Babak Anvari ( Tehran, Iran)
Babak Anvari is an Iranian born filmmaker who is living and working in London.
Since the age of 16 he has been involved in the production of many short films and video art pieces that have been screened in different venues around the world.
He graduated with a BA in Film & Television Production from Westminster Film School.
His award winning graduation film, What’s Up With Adam?, has been screened at many international festivals and also been commercially distributed in German speaking countries.
“I think when it comes to getting inspired by films, it’s not about sitting there and saying: “I want to take this. I want to take that.” You basically watch the film and let it affect you, and however it affects you, you keep that in mind and try to do similar things. So it’s about using those elements but making them your own.”
His second successful short narrative film, Solitary, has been showcased at various human rights events, including a few organized by Amnesty International. Babak currently works for MTV UK & Ireland.
He is one of the directors for MTV Live Sessions, an ongoing live music franchise, which airs on various MTV Networks channels around the world as well as online and has directed live performances for renowned artists such as Lady GaGa, Florence & The Machine, Pixie Lott, Tinie Tempah etc.
