About

After a long time researching profiles, I came to a conclusion: I prefer the simple ones, with an up-to-date picture (though not necessarily faithful to reality) and a small touch of questionable humor.

With that said, I’m Mariana Borga, or just Mari, a former creative based in São Paulo and currently working as film director in a production company.

This portfolio is a collection of the things I’m most proud of being part in those past 17 years (my 5 years old twins are not included).

I hope you like it.
