Earthen Spiritual creature, Nature is my God.
I am a hard working team player. Honest and proactive. I enjoy the pace and urgency of film production. With 19 years in the international film industry in Cape Town, I have a perfect knowledge of Setetiquette. The client, my superiors', the project and my team come before my personal preferences and needs
I Love the machine that is film production. Keeping up with new and viable technology is an exciting addition to my work so that one day I can drive it ...
I have never had a need for a nostalgic 'Film only' attitude .. I started early in my career to explore all the avenues to cinematic capture
when others said don't touch video I was shooting Hi8, beta cam and HD when it first started , assisting in all formats that I could get to. Spending time @ the post prod houses trying to get telecine experience. I finally graded my own music video on the telecine @ waterfront post. Thx to Bevel
Bevel Sponsored my first short film @ sitengi . Wild and dangerous , when I ran out of money to rent the beta cams I needed, he supplied me with some
when I am not working on a commissioned job/shoot . I am finding ways to test and experiment with different formats
from film to digital cinema to after effects VFX
I am indebted to many people that have played a part in my growth as a film maker
Research
there is a vast amount of knowledge to be learnt working at the back end 'so to say' with creative ideas and see them bloom
There are tons and tons of things I could say about myself and character. but that would just give it all away : )
I love photography I love its glass ... its so different always and so beautiful to look at you, thro it
from far i can be close up
with the emotion and depth we can get in film and photography
I want to create every day
pls consider me for an interview at the least
kind regards
A Dedicated peaceful Zen warrior
