Aleksandar Saša Djordjevic is a Serbian American creative director, producer and audiovisual artist. Native of Belgrade and a resident of New York City & Amsterdam, his work in advertising, film and episodic has been recognized and won accolades across USA and EMEA regions.
Born with a profound passion for storytelling, Sacha’s artistic journey began at a very young age when he booted up his first computer, and picked up his first camera. Thinking that something connecting these two seemingly unrelated worlds would be an interesting art form to explore, he forayed as a teenager into the universe of computer graphics revolution of the early 90s, and it’s implementation in cinema and advertising.
Throughout the years, he honed his craft moving seamlessly between many roles in the digital creative world, developing a signature style that keeps evolving. From simple product shoots to creating immersive emotional odysseys, and directing his own stories, Saša explores the frontiers of human experience.
He wrote, produced and designed several games under his 11000AD label, Covenant: Project Zero & Marbletron, and constatly explores new frontiers in real-time and interactive fields.
A long career as a visual effects supervisor, producer & creative technologist allowed him to meet and work with some of the most brilliant creatives around the world, on broadcast, film and episodic projects, having a cinema masterclass every few months, and inspiring him to direct and develop his own creative vocabulary.
Sacha is the founder, producer, and occasional lead vocalist of electronic music project SWEMIRATZ, and a frequent collaborator of the KOSMOPLOVCI art collective.
