Stanislava is a Russian born, British film director, living and working in London. She graduated from UCL with a degree in Psychology and later Metropolitan Film School. Stanislava's short films have been screened all over the world at over 50 film festivals and competitions including BFI London Film Festival, London Short Film Festival, Busho Film Festival, FrightFest, Detmold Film Festival, FECI Bogota, Skepto Film Festival among many others. Stanislava won awards for her music video and short film work, including awards from the Indie Fest and the Accolade competition. Stanislava’s music video Easy on the Eye won awards from Skepto film festival and Screen Stockport. It was also nominated for Cannes in a Van, Van D’Or award and was screened at the Screen Social. Several of Stanislava’s films have been nominated for the Limelight award. Stanislava’s films Apple Pie and Geoffrey’s Heart are part of anthology feature films Short Cuts to Hell 1 and 2, available on ITunes.
Stanislava collaborated with Litha and Effy Efthymiou on creation of a multi-media performance piece Parting, performed at the King’s Place. She created the films that were projected onto layers of translucent fabric and directed the interaction of the film with the live dancer on stage. The production received very positive reviews.
Stanislava is currently writing several short films and a feature. The feature film is a psychological horror film, that is an expansion to her FrightFest national competition finalist film Geoffrey’s Heart, that was screened on BBC 3 as part of their show called The Fear. Stanislava is also developing a few music videos for up-and-coming performers under her production company Clockpunk Films.
When she’s not directing, writing, producing or watching films she looks after her little daughter Maya and a Maltese Terrier called Rufus.
Geoffrey's Heart is a little 3 minute film that serves as a little teaser for the feature film I am hoping to develop. The film will be about the love a mother has for her child and asks a question: how far can a mother go to keep her child safe? This short introduces us to the characters - the mother and her son. It gives a taste of what's to come in a gory, gruesome, but ultimately moving Geoffrey's Heart.
