In my view as a visual artist, a Director of Photography is not only a technician operating a camera but puts the visual storytelling through colors, lighting, framing and composition. The world through my lens is different in many ways compared to the normality of the world today. As a cinematographer, I sometimes toy with subjective and objective camera angles to set the right mood or even break a rule in order to make the shot more in-depth and interesting. Through lighting, I am able to express the character's feelings or the environment in which the subject is present through colors and different forms of lighting the scene. By camera movement, I bring the viewer's eyes more focused on the subject. Most of all, I do this for the love of making films.
