Shimon directs commercials, short narrative films, and long-form branded content.

 

His work is an invitation to suspenseful psychological labyrinths permeated with bursts of unexpected dark comedy.

 

Shimon’s visual style of high-contrast imagery, curated pops of vibrant colours, and a dreamy sonic palette that challenges the boundaries of sound and music, are what brings a surrealist sensation into subject matters grounded in contemporary reality.

 

His experience of growing up as a Pakistani-Japanese in North Hollywood embedded deep curiosity towards the notion of belonging and cultural unity, which are themes inscribed into many of his projects.

 

The films Shimon directed have screened in international film festivals and

won awards in local film festivals.
