Hi, I’m Brent Rose—an award-winning cinematographer and editor with nearly two decades of experience across documentary, commercial, promotional, news, and livestream content. I offer a one-stop package: multi-camera operation, expert lighting, certified drone operation, and creative nonlinear editing. I’m a collaborative crew member who thrives both as a team leader and a hands-on, jack-of-all-trades contributor. I work across Canada and Japan, directing and shooting promotional videos, producing long-form explainers, and building end-to-end production workflows that stay on-brand and on-schedule. I love storytelling, cinematic composition, and crafting engaging visuals and soundscapes that connect with audiences.
