Collaboration Process

Brief

We clarify the goal, core idea, audience, format and style, then agree on a detailed plan and clear ground rules.

Production

On location, we work from the shot list. A mobile setup keeps production flexible in the city and in the field.

Post-production

Editing → sound → color. I work iteratively and stay in dialogue with you so the result remains true to the original intent.

Delivery

Final exports for YouTube, social media and the web. Need additional reels later? I archive projects for at least one year.

About Me

I first got into filmmaking through travel, spending several years making videos mainly for myself. Over time I became increasingly absorbed in the process and began exploring camera technology, sound, lighting and composition in greater depth. Documentary work later inspired me to study the craft more systematically and commit fully to telling the stories of people and meaningful projects. My background in music gives me a strong focus on sound and the use of music. I feel most at home in nature, in the mountains or behind a camera.
