Approach
My work begins with the story: what the audience needs to feel, how the camera relates to the subject and what kind of light belongs in that world.
Experience across camera, lighting and grip departments helps me turn that visual direction into a practical plan for the schedule, crew and budget. Through Comuna Rental House and Studios I also have direct access to professional camera, lighting and grip equipment in Lisbon.
