Cine­ma­to­grapher Open for Stu­dent & Indie Col­la­bo­ra­ti­ons

Hi ever­yo­ne,

This is direc­ted at film stu­dents and emer­ging direc­tors loo­king for a DP for upco­ming pro­jects.

I’m an AC and aspi­ring cine­ma­to­grapher from Mexi­co, curr­ent­ly based in Han­no­ver, working across Ger­ma­ny, with over 14 years of on-set expe­ri­ence. I’m now focu­sing ful­ly on buil­ding my body of work as a DP.

This year, I’m loo­king for strong col­la­bo­ra­ti­ons and sto­ry-dri­ven pro­jects, with the goal of buil­ding long-term rela­ti­onships.

I’m par­ti­cu­lar­ly drawn to nar­ra­ti­ve work with emo­tio­nal depth. Eit­her short films, spec ads, fashion films or sket­ches.

I own a FX6 and a set of Vespid Prime len­ses which I can hap­pi­ly pro­vi­de.

For stu­dent films, the­sis pro­jects, and strong inde­pen­dent con­cepts, I’m open to col­la­bo­ra­ting wit­hout finan­cial com­pen­sa­ti­on and will cover my own tra­vel cos­ts. I’m hap­py to tra­vel. My focus is on buil­ding trust, expe­ri­men­ting crea­tively, and pro­du­cing work we can all stand behind.

If you’re deve­lo­ping a short, a the­sis film, or a pas­si­on pro­ject that needs a com­mit­ted cine­ma­to­grapher, I’d genui­ne­ly love to read it.

You can find me cur­rent work here:

Loo­king for­ward to col­la­bo­ra­ting!
