From trying hard to stay focused and positive to grappling with anxiety or looming bankruptcy, we’re all experiencing these trying times differently. And we’re all just trying our best, one step at the time.

Whether you recite “We are all just walking each other home”, or sing “I can make it with a little help from my friends”, the important message is that it is okay to ask for help.

Keep safe, and feel free to reach out.

This December, another bunch of brilliant minds are getting their MA AICI (Applied Imagination in the Creative Industries) at CSM. It has been such joy as well as privilege to tutor these smart, hard working and generally wonderful young humans.

Am thrilled to be the guest contributor in Firetree Visual Media’s November blog.

Have a read!

“Humans have been telling stories since the beginning of time. It is how we make sense of the world, and how we connect with one another. All communication is therefore a narrative – we try to be heard by telling out story, be it through words, images, music, dance.”

A particular bonus of my work, a real joy in fact, is working with people from so many different walks of life.

In this case students from two universities and very different disciplines - Business Studies and English Literature.

Wonderfully stimulating time with such birght and beautiful minds.

Such a stimulating and inspiring day of workshops with the amazing UAL staff, part of their EXCEED programme.

“Hello, Sasha. I wanted to say thank you for the amazing energy and tools you shared in the workshop yesterday. You have captivated me, like I haven’t been captivated before, with the way you communicated this ideas, as staying focused for long periods of time as a dyslexic is not easy.” E.E.

BIG THANK YOU to all the participants for their enthusiastic engagement and excellent work.

I love how workshops inspire new ways of articulating ideas; the latest being:  

“We’re not business instruments that happen to be human, we are humans who happen to be doing business. Therefore, we must create and nurture the human connection first. The business bit stems from that.”

Delighted to spend a very stimulating afternoon with such a talented bunch of people. Watch this new agency grow and grow.

Am very proud to have been part of this!

A bunch of fantastic people with some really amazing projects!

Thank you BTTL for inviting me to run the Pitching Lab!

Very best of luck to all filmmakers!

“Sasha is an incredible pitching coach and a wonderful person to work with.

Our project involved a full day of pitching workshops for filmmakers and every single participant, from first-time filmmakers to those with Hollywood blockbuster experience, said they learnt something from working with Sasha.

In fact, he was the best-reviewed part of our programme!

More than that he’s fun, professional, easy to work with and someone we’ve found we can totally rely on. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.”

E. Carlton, Breaking Through The Lens.

And so it happened – the 2nd Breaking Through The Lens event was exhilarating with the quality of the projects and the beautiful energy of the people involved.

Watch them now all go forth and conquer!

Big thank you to the Imperial Design Engineering Society, Imperial College, for inviting me to run one of my pitching workshops. What a great bunch of people, what a stimulating evening. Feeling truly honoured and delighted by all the enthusiastic participation and the extremely kind comments afterwards.

Always such a joy to be talking about pitching to the media and film studies students in Falmer! Most stimulating afternoon with fabulous young minds!

In the words of one of the students: “I’ve been to many pitching courses, and this is by far the best.” High praise indeed.

Such an inspiring morning, yesterday, with the wonderful bright minds that are the students of Dyson School of Design Engineering with my Pitch Me Perfect workshop.

Plus am thrileld with the feedback:

”Thanks very much for this morning’s session. It went down really well with the students. One said to me afterwards: “That was great. I think probably the best lecture I can remember …. well ever actually. That was so helpful. For now. For everything””

High praise indeed.
