Summary
Aleksandra Rodionova is a filmmaker and director based on the Gold Coast who transitioned from an 11-year career as a senior frontend engineer into narrative and documentary filmmaking. With deep technical roots at companies like Revolut and Devexperts—where she led frontend refactors, UI component development, and code review—she brings a discipline for pixel-perfect storytelling and production-level project management to her films. She has written, produced, directed and edited shorts and a music video, is in pre-production on a second short, and is developing her first feature, blending technical precision with cinematic craft. Aleksandra’s background in graphic design and counseling psychology informs her visual style and character-driven approach, while her experience in remote, international teams gives her a pragmatic edge in leading collaborative productions.
