While Ojeil remains zealous for filmmaking,
he found that photography was a “more
affordable and quicker medium to tell stories
and communicate ideas,” while also keeping
his creative work “personal and subjective.”
When asked if his photographic style has
influenced his directorial technique, Ojeil
explained that the habit of transporting
the viewer from the visible world into a
different reality is still achieved in both
art forms by way of “interpreting light and
color tonality differently”.
Preferring anywhere “where there is a
vibrant scene for artistic photography with
great faces and super talented makeup and
hair artists to work with”, Ojeil has immersed
himself in Milan’s vivacious arts scene. With
his sense of self-competition and constant
evolution, if this is Ojeil “still trying to find
his voice”, we cannot wait to witness his
eventual aria.
