Making films (and film-like content) is an inexhaustible source of inspiration for me. Call it passion, call it necessity, call it love.
I have a lot of luggage. But then good luggage, that is. I've been walking around on film sets since I was 17 years old and before I took the final step to become a director, I gained experience in many functions; from runner to first assistant.
To be a director is to be the driving force in a process. It is making choices, showing courage, being able to think big-picture and super detailed at the same time, and above all being able to deal with people; they motivate and inspire. And that's me.
I work solution-oriented. I can handle setbacks well and know how to turn what goes wrong into something that works. The kick is to deliver a product that exceeds expectations every time.
I have experience with the entire chain of film production. From pitching and budgeting to planning and execution. Post-production is no stranger to me either. I can edit, post-process audio, and composit. I can also guide these processes well in collaboration.
