I am a freelance camera operator and video editor specialising in digital and social media content, particularly YouTube, with experience across the entire production workflow. I combine shooting, editing and the coordination of VFX and voice-over operations to deliver high-quality digital and corporate productions from development through to final delivery. I hold a DESRA degree (Diplôme d’Etudes Supérieures de Réalisation Audiovisuelle), obtained after three years of study at ESRA. During my studies, I developed a broad range of skills encompassing writing, production, directing, cinematography, sound recording and editing. My subsequent professional experience has allowed me to work across many areas of the audiovisual industry, including production (Froggies Media, Lagardère Entertainment, The Paris Bureau, Public Sénat, Cinéphase), film financing (Touscoprod and Marques et Films), the development of original programmes (Froggies Media, Lagardère Entertainment), and distribution (AB International Distribution). Since 2019, I have been working full-time as a freelance camera operator and video editor. Over the years, I have worked with teams and productions across film, media, television and the corporate sector, on a wide variety of projects involving editing, cinematography, production coordination and the creation of YouTube content. Today, a significant part of my work is dedicated to YouTube and digital productions. Beyond the technical aspects of shooting and editing, I aim to give each project a distinctive editorial and visual identity, tailored to its subject, platform and audience. I have also recently started developing a professional Instagram account to showcase my work. Until now, most of my projects have come through recommendations and word of mouth.
