Hi, I’m Domitille Girard, a film maker and camera operator who thrives on demanding shoots and real-world conditions. I bring clarity and calm under tight deadlines, guiding a project from shooting through post-production with practical know-how and teamwork. I’m comfortable with digital tools and AI applied to creation, editing, and content structuring, and I adapt quickly to the needs of projects and teams. I love collaborating across corporate, documentary, and broadcast formats, and I’m always curious to explore new tech—from drones to VR—to tell compelling stories. At ease with generative AI.
