36 years, two children, one baby in the belly of a beautiful wife, and a pile of dreams. It has the ingredients of my current life.

I grew up in fantasy worlds in a small town, but I spent eight years of my youth abroad, e.g., in China and Great Britain. This gave me a huge cultural richness and love for different countries, people, and stories, something that has since guided my whole life.

In my twenties, I ended up in the media/advertising life school through an apprenticeship contract. My dream was to learn everything I could about cinematic storytelling so that I could properly tell the stories I saw around me. I spent the last 10 years at a production company I founded, which later grew into an almost 20-person advertising agency. At some point, a pen came alongside the camera, and global clients such as Porsche, Nickelodeon, and Olympus Cameras, as well as small Finnish ones such as Telia, Supercell, Bugbear Entertainment, and Paperiliitto, became story and direction clients.

Now it's time to direct both the pen and the camera back to the original love - stories and people.

Misael Sine is a Finnish-Indonesian commercial film director, who was born in Jakomäki (Finland), grew up in Bandung (Indonesia), and is now based in Helsinki, Finland. He has a good understanding of youth subcultures, street fashion, and audiovisual brand elements. Misael has had the opportunity to work widely with different brands like Porsche, OM-System, KONE, Telia, Neste, Toyota, Wilfa & Olympus. He loves people and gets along with people; he adores difference. Maybe it was because Misael always felt unwelcomed, and he never felt belonging in either of his home countries, the complex identity crisis of a mix-breed child. After growing up, this frailty became his strength when Misael realized he belonged to both countries, without having to look like a Finn or Indonesian.

Misael doesn’t have any particular style or genre that he prefers. In his commercial work, Misael likes to use natural light. If he has an option between an actual location or a studio, he’ll always choose the location. The crew Misael works with must be treated with respect and equality; he doesn’t believe in stupid hierarchies. 

Misael pursues his dream of becoming a film director because he feels like it is something he was born to do, so he runs and grows towards it. Misael truly believes in the power of art and its effect on changing people’s lives — it has changed his life. Misael’s most significant source of inspiration is his parents and the Bible. He has worked most of his career in advertising, but his heart burns to make true CINEMA - feature films. Misael also knows that he will be a movie director in the future. His guts tell him that he will probably win an Oscar someday.

In his free time, Misael likes to spend a lot of time in nature, swimming in cold waters, watching good and bad movies, and spending quality time with his friends and loved ones.

Misael does what he does because he is called to do so.
