Hi,
I have over six years of academic experience in the field of media, having accomplished a BA honours degree in Media Design and having just completed an MA in Documentary Production. During those years, I learned how to operate cameras, sound and lighting equipment. I eventually reached a good degree of technical knowledge that allowed me to start working as a freelance camera operator during my studies.
Therefore, I gained more than three years experience working almost continuously as a freelance camera operator by a variety of means, trying many different cameras (such as Panasonic AG-DVX200, most Canon Cinema Cameras, Sony α series, Nikon cameras), different cinema lenses and sound kits. I did this in an international environment, as I have worked both in Italy and in the UK with both small and large productions. During the last year, I have worked as a freelance camera operator for Keyhole Productions, often for shifts longer than 10 hours. Lately, I spent a day with journalist Charlotte Ricca-Smith, filming and editing interviews and videos for the social pages of the Airowear brand. This was enjoyably challenging and enriching, as the videos had to be edited and published online straight away, and I often had to run two cameras and sound by myself.
Thank you for your time and consideration, I look forward to hearing from you. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need further information.
