Whilst still at FAMU, he worked on several short films and in the production team of Vera Chytilová's PLEASANT MOMENTS. In 2008, Pavel worked with his colleague Ondrej Zima on Jan Prušinovský's feature debut FRANKIE, THE WOMANIZER and also produced the documentaries BEAUTIFUL OLYMPIC PRAGUE and BALUTY, THE GHETTO. In the field of animation, he has handled the production of various film school projects as well as the animated short A TEAR IS NEEDED which was named Best Czech Animated Film at AniFest in 2009.
