🔹 From Behind the Lens to Center Stage
Shafiq Devoss, best known for his brilliant work as a drone pilot and visual artist, now steps boldly into the spotlight with his first major acting role — portraying Napsy in Days of Falling Apart. For years, Shafiq has worked behind the camera, but in this emotionally raw, visually poetic film, he brings one of the most vital characters to life with presence and quiet power.
🎭 The Role of Napsy
Napsy is a man of few words and deep emotions — a creative soul whose life unravels in solitude and silence. His world is one of art, isolation, and hidden love. Shafiq’s natural look, emotional subtlety, and artistic depth make him the perfect embodiment of Napsy.
“I didn’t just cast him because he’s my brother. I cast him because he is Napsy. He carries that internal storm I was writing,”
— Moses Devoss, Director.
🎬 From Engato to Days of Falling Apart
Shafiq made his on-screen debut in Engato, another Devoss Media production. While his roots are in aerial cinematography, he’s always had the eye and heart of a storyteller. His transition to acting feels less like a debut and more like a natural evolution.
🖼️ An Artist at Heart
What sets Shafiq apart is his artistic soul — from the way he frames a drone shot to how he steps into a character. He understands visual language, rhythm, and emotion. That’s what makes his performance in Days of Falling Apart not just acting, but pure artistic expression.
📸 Visual Look
With his striking features and intense eyes, Shafiq naturally fits the screen. His image in the film is iconic — part painter, part mystery, part broken dream. The look, the hair, the presence — it’s all Napsy.
