1st AC / Focus Puller
Let me assist you, so you can focus on the story
"No disruptions for you: the cinematographer’’
That's precisely what I strive to achieve as a 1st assistant cameraman.
My goal is to assist in the technical aspects of a film shoot, ensuring that the cinematographer and crew have the tools ready to bring their shots to life.
I specialize in providing technical support, assisting with equipment planning and setup. Overseeing the camera and related gear on set, and handling challenges such as weather and logistics.
Naturally, I'm adept at pulling focus as required, in close collaboration with the cinematographer.
My experience encompasses a diverse range of projects, including short films, commercials, documentaries, and feature films.
With a background as a former high-end rental camera technician, I possess extensive knowledge of various camera systems, lenses, and accessories.
Additional experiences include operating high-speed cameras like the Phantom Flex 4k and Phantom Miro, as well as utilizing high-end gimbals such as the Movi Pro.
Here's what I bring to the table:
5+ years of experience as 1st & 2nd assistant camera
Former tenure as a high-end rental camera technician for over 3 years
Proficiency in operating high-speed cameras and gimbals
B-camera operation skills
Steadicam Operator
Post background as a graduate VFX compositor & VFX Set supervisor
