Available to hire
I’m Nele Vandenbroecke, a Belgian freelance video producer, director and writer with a passion for storytelling across documentary, fiction and social media. I coach actors, creators and brands, and I love turning complex ideas into accessible, engaging video content.
I started out in social media and marketing, building small and big brands all over the world. From the best summer campaign for a radio station to social media strategy for Belgium’s public broadcaster, from setting up all external and internal communication for Philips (back in the days) to making web series from a to z, from writer’s rooms to copywriting.
I manage my own online video academy in Belgium and the Netherlands where I help entrepreneurs with their branding, tone of voice, social media strategy and online video (from scripting to editing).
Whether it’s for strategic work, creative copywriting, social media content ideas and planning or editing your videos, I’ll be happy to help!
