Bio
Joao Mb Costa moved to Amsterdam in 2002, what was initially planned as a 6 months stay to help out a friend with a new IT project became a 15-year life-changing project.
In 2006 he was told by a friend about an open day at a very cool media school called SAE Institute, despite never hearing of it before he decided to check it out and was right away amazed by the friendly atmosphere and having the movie bug in him since young ages he decided to give a go at the film production course, at the time “as a weekend hobby”, little did he know that SAE would change his professional and personal life at unexpected levels.
Ever since his graduation in 2007 Joao has been gathering experience and working with clients as varied as Netflix, Heineken, Google, Guess Jeans, L’Oreal, Paradiso, or Volkshotel but still finds time to share his passion and experience at the film department of SAE Institute Amsterdam, a perfect balance for a busy life.
