I’ve always had a passion for photography, since secondary school. It was just something my friends and I used to have as a hobby, making videos and editing them. But my long lost passion began in 2014 when I got my own first camera (I was tired of using the digital camera I bought for concert purposes, which nonetheless had served me well). That same year, I started studying Film & TV Production, learning about everything film and media. In 2017 I got my Bachelors Degree of Arts in Moving Image Production. Now, I’m considering studying cinematography too…

My name is Margarita Sheremet and I’m a 27 y/o photographer, cinematographer, and editor.

I’ve learned that my camera doesn’t define me as a photographer. You do your best with what you’ve got. This way, I’ve gained a lot of confidence and knowledge. Some of my best work has been shot with my iPhone (“The Undisturbed” series) and a small digital camera (“The 1975” series). But what I absolutely love working with is professional equipment. Cinematography to me is a challenge and an art form. You’re making technology and your creativity work at the same time. It’s choice of lenses, format, composition and color that will fit and benefit the shot both artistically and visually. So I try to get as much experience as I possibly can, on set and from books.
