Available to hire
I’m Roland Javornik, a visual storyteller and freelancer from Hasselt, Belgium. I love crafting films and TV that feel human—documentaries, series, commercials, and music videos—where the emotion lands and the character shines on screen.
I work across directing, editing, and scripting, and I’m happiest turning ideas into something that sticks. From award-winning documentaries with international distribution to brand and TV projects delivered for major broadcasters, I focus on making stories clear, compelling, and visually strong.
