Hi. I am a
Helping NGOs, Corporates and African Brands translate complex realities into compelling visual narratives that build trust, inspire action and unlock growth.
01.
I’m Zen ISA — a Pan-African filmmaker, systems thinker, and digital nomad with a background in Mechatronic Engineering, award-winning documentary filmmaking, and community-focused social advocacy.
I specialize in creating clarity through story — whether I’m simplifying industrial ESG concepts, documenting community transformation, or building a brand’s entire media operation from the ground up.
I’ve filmed across Southern Africa, produced content seen by millions, and worked with organizations and creators from grassroots communities to television networks. Now, I bring that same expertise directly into your organization — fractionally, flexibly, and at the quality of a full creative department.
Let’s collaborate to elevate your brand and make a lasting impact in the digital realm.
