There is no spoon
Curiosity.
How things really work?
Play. Build. Break. Re-build.
Question everything. EVERYTHING.
Listen to people. Really listen. Really really listen. Pay attention.
Spot the pixels inside the big picture. Know each and every one of them.
Zoom in. Zoom out. Connect the dots.
Search the engine. How does it work?
Everything is content. Even 0 and 1.
Remix. Make fusion.
Stay dynamic. Stay vs. Dynamic. Never go back.
Use positive taglines.
Love.
I love media, new, old, cross. I have experienced all shapes of media - Films, TV, Internet, Mobile, Radio, Advertising, Promo, social...
I work hard to be where content meet technology. I am the connector, the translator, the negotiator, the matchmaker, the fixer, the creator.

Rising Star Real Time Voting platform.
Year – 2014
Clients – Broadcasters and production companies such as ABC (USA), Globo TV (Brazil), RTL (Germany), M6 (France), CCTV (China), Rossiya 1 (Russia) and MORE
Short Description
“Rising Star” is a trailblazing, interactive talent format that hails a new era in home entertainment.
The Israeli format was sold to many countries such as USA, Brazil, Germany, France, Portugal, Argentina, China and Hungary.
Its launch marks the dawn of real-time viewer voting via an innovative free app which is fully integrated into the show.
Audiences decide who advances via the voting app, while their individual pictures appear on the large screen facing the contestant. The studio judges vote simultaneously by hitting their own buttons. The tension mounts as the performer approaches the designated voting percentage – if they hit the mark, the screen rises in a dramatic climax and a new star is revealed.
The viewers continue to play an integral role in every decision made throughout the entire season, as it builds to a finale that richly rewards their emotional investment.
