Director, editor, colorist.
#opentowork
20+ years behind the camera, creating sober yet powerful visual narratives, cut from the old school,
letting light, sound and movement carry the story. I love the whole journey,
from the shoot to the final grade.
Along the way I built a full post-production department from the ground up, brought teams together around it, and took on motion design and live-stream operation.
Based in Berlin, open to relocating. I'm looking for a permanent role in a team where both craft
and a real visual eye matter, and where someone who can direct, cut, grade and handle the technical
end is free to pitch in wherever it helps.
I work in French and English, and get by in German.
I started as an editor and never stopped cutting. Above all I'm a visual director: images, movement, light and composition, with a strong sense of film grammar and visual storytelling. Everything after came from the work itself. Color grading first, then sound, then the technical end of live production. I learned each one because a job needed it.
I work primarily in DaVinci Resolve, and I'm just as comfortable in Premiere Pro or Final Cut Pro. Sound in Audition, Fairlight and Ableton Live, media through Kyno. Photo retouching in Photoshop, motion and VFX in After Effects, and a minimalist, brutalist eye for anything web or graphic design, in Illustrator or Affinity. Live multi-camera switching on Roland V-80HD and Blackmagic ATEM, with Panasonic controllers and PTZ cameras. When a tool I want doesn't exist, I build it, in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, Remotion, Cloudflare and Python.
Then there's the work I give myself.
I wrote
The Edge
, my debut feature, a survival horror and a love letter to genre cinema, built for low budget, where the frame does the work and silence, geometry and raw location carry more than any line of dialogue.
Skrean
, a VOD platform I coded from the ground up, began as a home for The Edge
, it outgrew that role, and became a digital grindhouse for genre cinema in its own right.
Rev|Cut
, a frame-accurate review tool for editors and colorists, was born from a strict GDPR need. It has a DaVinci Resolve plugin I developed, and has been open to everyone since January 2026.
Snowboarding, and sport in general. I trained as a sport instructor. I drink a lot of coffee, and I like making it as much as drinking it, latte art included.
I tried screen-printing in 2009 and never stopped, so I built it a small site,
Jōhatsu
. And I like to produce music under
//:bl34k
. I'm not a musician, but I like playing with audio software. The sketches that come out of it feed back into my sound design.
