    ''Spec Commercial – Created for This Application''
    I came across your job posting this morning and rather than simply submitting my existing portfolio, I wanted to create something specifically inspired by your brief. Since I didn’t have access to Kizuna Quest, I used UNO as a stand-in to explore the same idea, how a simple card game can bring people together through meaningful conversation. This concept was planned, shot and edited within a single day as a rapid proof of concept. Because of the limited time, it isn’t intended to be a polished final commercial. This concept is intended as a small preview of the creative direction I envision for the main 90–120 second campaign film, focusing on emotion, pacing and visual storytelling. The shorter 30 and 15 second versions would be developed with a much faster, more energetic rhythm, placing greater emphasis on the product itself while incorporating dedicated motion graphics, graphic animations and platform-specific edits designed for advertising and social media. The piece was filmed on a Panasonic Lumix S1II with a DZOFilm Vespid Prime 35mm T2.1, using a lightweight production setup while focusing on lighting, composition and emotional storytelling. I’ve also included my portfolio alongside this application, where you can find additional examples of my work. Thank you for taking the time to watch it. I hope it gives you a clear idea of the creative direction and production value I would bring to your project. P.S. Due to Twine’s video compression, you may notice minor color shifts, compression artifacts or occasional visual glitches. The original master maintains the intended image quality, color fidelity and overall visual presentation. filmdirector videoeditor video…
    ''Sant Joan 2026 - Ciutadella de Menorca''
    For this project, I wanted to move away from the idea of simply documenting an event. My goal was to capture what Sant Joan feels like from within: its anticipation, intensity, tradition, and the small human moments that often go unnoticed amidst the celebration. I filmed the entire piece on a Panasonic Lumix S1II paired with a DZOFilm Vespid Prime 35mm T2.1, deliberately working with a single focal length to maintain a consistent visual language throughout the film. This forced me to stay physically engaged with the action, anticipating moments instead of reacting to them, allowing the camera to feel present rather than observational. The film was shot entirely using available natural light. Instead of introducing artificial lighting, I embraced the constantly changing conditions of the festival, adapting composition, exposure and camera movement to preserve the authenticity of each scene while maintaining a cinematic aesthetic. Throughout the edit, I focused on rhythm, atmosphere and emotional continuity rather than chronological coverage. More than documenting the events themselves, I wanted the audience to experience the emotion, energy and cultural identity that make Sant Joan such a unique celebration. P.S. Due to Twine's video compression, you may notice minor color shifts, compression artifacts or occasional visual glitches. The original master maintains the intended image quality, color fidelity and overall visual presentation. video documental filmdirector videoeditor…
    'A la deriva''
    Cinematic ocean piece filmed on location with a minimal documentary setup and a limited production budget. The project was shot using a Fujifilm X-M5, paired with a 7Artisans 35mm f/1.8 lens. This camera was rented exclusively for this project, chosen specifically for its compact size and mobility to support a lightweight, run-and-gun documentary approach, due to client budget constraints. No artificial lighting was used; all images rely entirely on available natural light, working with the changing coastal conditions throughout the day. The visual approach focused on maximizing natural contrast, exposure control, and timing to preserve the atmosphere of the sea in its most authentic form. Despite the limitations of the equipment and the absence of lighting tools, the project aimed to achieve a cinematic result through composition, movement, and intentional in-camera decisions rather than post-production intervention. video filmdirector videoeditor directorofphotography…
