ABOUT ME
Hello! I'm Mary Balbas, known online as Mharz and I'm a professional artist/animator and a self-taught photographer, videographer, and editor from The Philippines. I have great passion in creativity and storytelling. My experience working in an animation studio in the past has helped me learn about the production pipeline and I had used the knowledge I acquired there to expand my creativity through other forms of media like photo and video.
Currently, I'm interested in capturing events and creating narrative stories through videography and cinematography. My dream is to be able to tell the stories I have in mind through film.
I'm very adaptable, determined, and a fast-learner. I ensure that all the creative projects I worked on are of the highest quality using whatever resources I have. For me, communication and transparency is important and I always do my absolute best in giving my clients an amazing experience in working with me through listening to their feedback and catering to what is requested.
