Available to hire
Hi, I’m Ralf Moussa, a cinematographer and film & new media practitioner based in Beirut, Lebanon. I oversee the evolving craft of camera work and imaging across narratives, commercials, and independent projects, with over a decade in the camera department across multiple formats. I’m driven by a deep curiosity for both technical and creative imaging, constantly exploring new ways to tell stories through light, movement, and composition.
I hold an MA in Cinematography from the Lebanese University and have collaborated on Lebanese and international productions. I work across installation art, sound, and mixed-media practices, actively exchanging ideas with artists and producers worldwide while pursuing new areas to apply my research in imaging and storytelling.
