Ανήσυχο και καλλιτεχνικό πνεύμα από μικρό παιδί, ο Μιχάλης Μπασιάκος βρίσκει διέξοδο στην δημιουργική τέχνη της κινούμενης εικόνας, αποτυπώνοντας την ομορφιά που υπάρχει σε κάθε πτυχή της καθημερινότητας. Λατρεύει τις ιστορίες, τους ανθρώπους και το φως. Το βίντεο γάμου είναι η τέλεια αφορμή για να διηγείται μοναδικές ιστορίες μέσα από τις εικόνες του. Ακροβατεί ανάμεσα στο ντοκυμαντέρ και το κινηματογραφικό στυλ, αφήνοντας το συναίσθημα να κυριαρχήσει, με στόχο κάθε δουλειά του να είναι ξεχωριστή, είτε πρόκειται για έναν φαντασμαγορικό γάμο στο Παρίσι είτε για έναν παραδοσιακό νησιώτικο γάμο. Εισηγητής σε 8 workshops με θέμα την κινηματογράφιση γάμου και ομιλητής σε διάφορες εκθέσεις και συνέδρια στην Ελλάδα και την Κύπρο, λατρεύει την διάδοση της γνώσης και την ανταλλαγή απόψεων.
