MOST RECENT PHOTOS: PSYCHOBILLY PHOTOSHOOT FOR THE WORN FASHION MAGAZINE MOST RECENT PHOTOS: GREAT BAND FROM FRANCE (MYSTIK MOTORCYCLES)! SELF PORTRAIT DONE IN MY STUDIO! No, I don't dress like that when I'm shooting on location, just in case you were wondering!!!! I just couldn't find a model at 2:00AM to shoot my idea, so I became my own model!!!! I was inspired and felt an urge to shoot something! RECENT PHOTOSHOOT I DID WITH COUNTERCLOCK! Recent photoshoot I did with Counterclock! The behind-the-scenes video shot by Draigo will come out soon! Stay tuned! NEW BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO!!!! PATRICIA CHICA SHOOTS WITH KITTY KITTY BANG BANG! (VLOG) Add to My Profile | More Videos Hello! My name is Patricia Chica. I'm a rock chick with a camera! People call me the "one-woman band" because I create, I direct, I shoot, I cut... from idea to end product... I am a multiskilled visual artist and storyteller. Bands and clients hire me because I have a unique and provocative style, but maybe because I'm nice too! I am an award-winning director, producer and concept writer, as well as a visual artist and creative photographer. I presently share my time between Montreal (my hometown) and New York but I also shoot internationally. My work has been broadcasted at MTV, MuchMusic, Discovery, National Geographic, Bravo!, Oxygen and Travel Channel just to name a few as well as at numerous film festivals around the world. A little bit more about me? I am just an average girl! I am not more talented than anyone else out there. I am very optimistic, creative and passionate. I work harder than most people and I don't believe in the word "impossible"! I do everything for the art to the point of getting myself into trouble sometimes (LOL)! I always wanted to be a punk-rocker but I have zéro talent! I think that I have a musical sensibility when I shoot, I just use a different instrument to express myself! I am both at ease in front and behind the camera, but only if I am in total artistic control! There are just a few artists who can make my jaw drop! And I keep them close to me for ongoing inspiration and stimulation! .. I am featured in the first issue of webzine GALRILLA.com , a website dedicated to showcase female artists from around the world. I was chosen to represent Canada as a film director and I am also one of the visual contributors! Check it out! Join my Film, TV, Music and Digital Arts Group: Groups.MySpace.com/PatriciaChica . I AM FEATURED ON THE COVER OF WPS EZINE! THERE IS A 4 PAGE EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW ABOUT MY WORK AND MY CAREER! CHECK IT OUT! CLICK HERE TO UPLOAD THE eZINE! Magazine Cover: Courtesy of WPS. Graphic Design: TrajanDesigns.com. I write and speak three languages: English, French and Spanish. Do not hesitate to contact me in any of those languages anytime. I also speak a little bit of Italian. ARTISTIC APPROACH: Since my directorial debut in 1990, my motivation has been to blur the line between fine art and commercial work. In the past decade I have been involved with Montreal's underground music scene as well as working professionally on various artistic projects that combine technology, alternative fashion and design and that always with a touch of sensual provocation. Driven by originality; I always try to push forward the creative boundaries of storytelling by focusing on innovative techniques for narration and daring post-production effects. However, my visual style is more than just poetic, as it is often described as gritty within a humanistic setting. To be continued... www.PatriciaChica.com I am presently finishing with Mike Wafer a film called Rockabilly 514 about the rockabilly subculture in Montreal. The film will come out in the summer of 2007. Cast members of the film. Photographer © Patricia Chica, 2005 Click on the photo to view the trailer. "Start Clean" (Behind-the-scenes) ..
