L'art de vivre
Short Film
BEST ELECTRIC
L’Art De Vivre is a short film following Amel, a once-passionate painter who falls ill. His devoted sister helps bring him back into the outside world, allowing him to reconnect with the memories, art, and love that once defined his life.
The lighting team and I helped visually distinguish Amel’s present life from memories of his past. We used shifts in color temperature and exposure to create contrast between the two time periods, helping reinforce the emotional difference between present day and the life he once cherished.
BEFORE THE WAKE
Short Film
CINEMOTOGRAPHER / EDITOR
Before The Wake is a short film following Martha and her daughter Nina as they navigate Martha’s terminal illness and the difficult reality of letting go. As Nina struggles to accept her mother’s wishes, their relationship becomes increasingly strained by the weight of what lies ahead.
As the cinematographer and editor, I helped develop the film’s visual style through a desaturated color palette, low-key lighting, and a slightly underexposed image. I intentionally limited the amount of light in many scenes to create a darker, more subdued atmosphere while still allowing the film’s comedic moments to retain the characters warmth and personality.
i BELIEVE IN A THING CALLED LOVE
unofficial music video
CINEMOTOGRAPHER / EDITOR
I Believe In A Thing Called Love is an unofficial music video for the band The Darkness. The video portrays the band performing in a garage while neighbors gather in the driveway to dance and sing along.
The director and I collaborated to create a natural, energetic aesthetic that complemented the feel of the song. I achieved this through handheld camera movement and natural lighting, using the sun as the primary key light. The clear skies and consistent sunlight allowed us to maintain a bright, natural look while capturing the high energy of the performances.
CHEMICAL
unofficial music video
GAFFER
Chemical is an unofficial music video for Post Malone’s song, portraying a relationship through its contrasting moments of happiness, connection, and heartbreak. The video explores the emotional highs and lows of a relationship and the difficulty of letting go.
We used contrasting warm and cool color tones to visually reflect the changing emotions within the relationship. Warm and cool light were used to create separation between the characters, subtly reinforcing their emotional disconnect even when they shared the same space.
