Independent filmmaker, video journalist, content creator, stock footage producer, editor, and certified drone pilot. What started as a combination of my interest in different cultures and societies, and a passion for film and photography, gradually evolved into an independent film production company. And for more than a decade now, I have worked on various film and videography projects in Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. I would describe myself as a creative, empathic, and flexible person, that is curious about the world we live in, and knows how to navigate uncharted territory. My background in International Relations, Political Science, and Contemporary Asian studies, helps me understand some of the complex issues in the diverse regions that I work in. While my curious, adventurous mindset takes me to places I would otherwise not visit. Over the years, my work has been used by thousands of broadcasting companies, news channels, advertising agencies, film studios, documentary producers, NGOs, museums, streaming platforms, and other companies, including National Geographic, Discovery Channel, BBC, Netflix, Apple TV+, Vox Media, PBS, Business Insider, CNBC, Huffington Post, CBS, Aljazeera, EBS Korea, NHK Japan, Associated Press, BNN Vara, Peabody Essex Museum, Baker McKenzie, World Economic Forum, Museum of Scotland, Air Astana, Whitley Fund for Nature, Amnesty International, and many more. I have traveled to over 70 countries, and my library of 4K and HD stock footage includes material shot in China, India, Japan, Iran, Israel, Palestinian Territories, Jordan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Ethiopia, Saudi Arabia, Nepal, South Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, the Central Asian Republics, the Caucasus, former Yugoslavia and the Balkans, Qatar, Turkey, Morocco, Tunisia, the UAE, Cuba, Iceland, Germany, Italy, France, and The Netherlands. Topics include aerials, landscapes, urban life, politics, culture, food, technology, people, street life, environment, nature, religion, history, social issues, and current affairs.Some of this material I also integrate on my social media pages, most notably Youtube, where I run a channel of over 270K subscribers. Here I upload content that aims to show my audience some of the beautiful places in our world, and provides an insight into cultures and societies they may not be familiar with.Please feel free to contact me for commissioned work or to license some of my footage. And I’m also always open for other types of collaboration, discussion, and sharing creative ideas.
