Dimitris is a film and television director and editor from Athens. He studied filmmaking and photography at the Academy of Art in San Francisco. During his tenure in Hollywood, he worked in post-production at Jerry Bruckheimer Films and Disney Studios where he apprenticed under many Academy-Award winning and nominated film editors such as Michael Kahn, Mark Goldblatt, David Brenner, Bud Smith and William Goldenberg.
A Midpoint alumni, he has directed music videos, documentary tv series, corporate videos and shorts. He has also edited several feature films, series and docs. His directorial feature debut “The Republic” premiered at the 2015 Athens International Film Festival, a bloodthirsty revenge flick, it addressed with an unapologetic, saturated and humorous tone many of the pathogenies of political corruption in Greece. It didn’t quite win the Palm D’Or, but to its dedicated cult following it remains as relevant today as when it was released.
Currently he is developing the Midpoint selected Sci-Fi Comedy TV Series Outsider with screenwriter Alex Moran and enjoys to teach the craftsmanship of film editing the way he learned it from some of Hollywood’s finest Motion Picture Editors.
