About
I’m Gerald Fransen, a freelance video producer, cameraman, and editor based in Asten, The Netherlands. I’m driven by visual storytelling and authentic interviews, and I enjoy discovering what motivates people and finding the story behind the obvious. My work focuses on making engaging corporate and educational content that feels natural to the people on screen.
A large part of my approach is creating a relaxed filming environment—often in real workplaces—so contributors can communicate confidently without acting. From concept to filming, interviewing, editing, and final delivery, I combine strong production skills with clear communication goals for the target audience, whether it’s employer branding, customer stories, instructional content, or e-learning.

Education
From 2008 to 2010, I studied Audiovisual Production at Syntra in Genk, Belgium. The programme focused on the practical, creative and organisational aspects of audiovisual production, including production planning, camera work, storytelling, editing and working within professional production environments. In 2020, I completed an additional course in screenwriting, further developing my understanding of story structure, narrative and visual storytelling. Throughout my career, I have also followed various professional training courses in editing, production workflows and camera techniques. This ongoing development has allowed me to continuously refine both my technical and creative skills. In addition, I hold professional certifications including VCA and European drone certificates A1/A2. Continuous learning remains an important part of my work, especially in camera technology, post-production, storytelling and new developments within the video industry.
