Nia Alavezos

I'm an experienced animation professional, motivated to advance my career in all aspects of production, directing, and writing/editing. As of late, I have been interested in a different career path, particularly involving more creative endeavours. I am currently open to roles on this platform involving writing and editing work, in addition to directing and voice over direction opportunities, as this is where I would like to see my career progressing in the future. 

In 2021, I directed Sun & Moon's Christmas short TIMELESS GIFTS. My new short film PASSENGER was commissioned by Ffilm Cymru, BBC Wales, and BFI Network Wales in 2022. The film wrapped Spring 2024 and is due to premiere at the Aesthetica Short Film Festival in November. I'm currently working on developing my first feature film with funding and continued support from Ffilm Cymru Wales.

I've produced SPECTRE OF THE BEAR, also commissioned by Ffilm Cymru’s Beacons short film scheme. The film is nearing the end of its festival run and was recently nominated for a BAFTA Cymru award. I've just finished producing Sivan Raphaely's 2D animated film THE SMELL OF CHICKEN, which will be making its debut at Manchester Animation Festival, and wrapping up producing Laura Tofarides' stop motion short YMENYDD; due to complete by early 2025.

Additionally, I'm working with Josh Hicks, the director of SPECTRE OF THE BEAR, in bringing his hilarious comic GLORIOUS WRESTLING ALLIANCE to life through funding with Creative Wales. We secured additional funding from Creative Wales as part of their new Young Content Fund to create a proof of concept trailer for FRESHLY SERVED, an exciting new anime-inspired project based on Josh's comic of the same name.
