About me

"For me, it's all about telling stories and expressing them in the best way possible"
The directing scene has witnessed the rise of a new talent: Hasinth Pathirana (Director Ace). This new prodigy is on the run for every available hot spot in this business and will continue to rise until he gets to the top. Old and new collide into a very peculiar and intense urban style never seen before.
His studies in filmmaking and visual effects bought him to the position he is in now, but the road he has taken has never been a clear path, and he had stride to make it through the most challenging situations. His career started in his birthplace Sri Lanka where he used his skills to get a shot for the very first music video of his life. That very clip surprisingly made it to national television Top Charts. It was officially the beginning of his journey.
In an incredibly short amount of time, he became one of the best Sri Lankan directors bringing his country’s standards to a level never reached before. He has produced short movies, documentaries, TV commercials and music videos, two of which have been nominated for Brit Asia Music Awards 2011. Won – Best International Film Award (IN-SHORT 2012 International Film Festival, Lagos)
