Need a Multimedia Swiss Army Knife?
Then please look no further!
I am a director, camera operator and video editor with 15 years experience
working in film and video production, documentaries, web corporate
commercials and music videos as well as rich media.
I have directed over 200 commercials / web spots and over 50 shorts,
one of them “Wonderwoman” was awarded the Grand Prize from Unisep
in France for best public service announcement.
Beside my experience in filming, lighting and editing films,
I can create live video projection mapping in corporate settings,
for live events and for museum exhibits.
I am reliable, fast, efficient and creative, with a strong working knowledge
of Final Cut Studio as well as color treatment, compression
and mapping software.
I am well equipped with HD, DV & 16mm cameras, lights, mics, editing stations
(For a complete listing, take a look at my website.)
I have great French/English writing and oral communication skills and I know
how to put customers, clients, artists and interviewees at ease.
I am flexible and comfortable with working irregular hours
in order to complete a project.
I have a positive and proactive attitude and a willingness to jump in
and help complete a project on time and on budget.
