MULTIMEDIA CONTENT CREATOR. SCIENCE COMMUNICATOR. STORYTELLER.
Hello, I'm Diana—a versatile content creator. I'm an independent filmmaker, producer, and an motion graphics designer.

I thrive on storytelling, aiming to make a difference with my projects.
EDUCATIONAL ANIMATIONS
why do we keep voting for liars?
Have you ever wondered why voters support politicians despite evidence of dishonesty? This behavior is often due to cognitive dissonance, where individuals justify their choices to align their beliefs with their actions, reducing psychological discomfort even when faced with contradictory evidence.
where do stereotypes come from?
In this video, we explore the concept of stereotypes, their roots, impact, and psychological basis. Discover how the 'out-group homogeneity bias' influences our view of others, the real-world consequences of stereotyping, and the media's role in perpetuating these notions.
why do humans conform?
What is conformity? From the pivotal Asch Conformity Experiments to the philosophical insights of thinkers like Kierkegaard and Nietzsche, we explore how our inherent desire for social acceptance drives us to conform, revealing its profound impact on our daily lives and societal structures.
Ever wonder why it’s so hard to leave a job or relationship, even when you know it’s not right for you? In this video, we explore the sunk cost fallacy—a psychological trap that keeps us stuck in situations we should move on from. Using scenes from ‘The Holiday,’ we break down why we struggle to quit and how to overcome this common bias.
coming soon
I'm making more motion graphics videos on psychology, philosophy, anthropology, neuroscience, cognitive sciences, and behavioral economics.
