About MavArt
MavArt is one person - Skevos Mavros. No that’s not a nickname or handle, it’s my real name. MavArt is me. I am MavArt. Goo goo g’joob.*
I’m a writer/director and editor (and occasional cinematographer, animator, and VFX mangler) living in Brisbane Australia. I’m currently working on a few scripts for short films and a couple of features. They are all in various states of pre- and post-production, see the Gallery for more information. As for my features, well, they’ll be finished Real Soon NowTM.
I also work on videos (corporates, training, music clips, TV commercials) and CD-ROMs, but less of that now days.
I also used to be the Guide for the Film Making web site over at About.com, formerly The Mining Company, which is a great collection of special-interest web sites, but my work and writing commitments forced me to stop running it. About.com still hasn’t found someone to take over the Film Making site, so it and all the articles I wrote for it have been removed from their servers. In order to rescue the articles from internet oblivion, I’m slowly putting them up here, in the Articles section.
The name MavArt is actually a combination of the
first three letters of my surname (Skevos Mavros), and the first three letters of my partner’s surname (Kareena Arthy). A stunningly original idea, yes?
It’s a nonsense phrase from the nonsense Beatles song I Am The Walrus:
Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come
Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday
Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen
I am the walrus, goo goo g’joob
