During his stay at NYU, Alex made 6 short films and several documentaries. 3 years later, at the age of 20, Alex completed what he considers to be his first film, his thesis film "Duo" and graduated from NYU. He had also written the final draft of the feature film version of Duo, which was picked up by a famous talent agent in New York who represented the writers of Cocoon and The English Patient, to name a few. The screenplay was sent to several movie studios, including Disney which showed the most interest in it. Meanwhile, Alex was working hard editing Duo and doing all the post-production to try and meet the deadline of NYU's First Run film festival, for which Duo was already a favorite.
