specifics
My experience and background is unique. I have theatre, film and documentary background. To earn a living I also did camera work, for TV and films, especially corporate films. After filmmaking, I find ENG work and documentary the best thing that fills me in at home.
Making films, drama, fiction, preferably thrillers, is my pursuit and where I have focused my attention the most.
