I'm Pataki Farkas, a self-taught filmmaker and video technician with over 10 years of hands-on experience across the full production pipeline, from concept development to live execution and post-production delivery. I work fluently both as a solo operator and as part of multidisciplinary production teams, adapting to projects that range from documentary and commercial work to large-scale live events and broadcasts. My core expertise lies in post-production and technical video workflows, where I focus on narrative structure, pacing, and visual continuity. I apply a methodical approach to editing and sound design, always aiming to serve the story and communication goals of each project. With an eclectic background, I bring an academic foundation in arts and architecture, shaping my structured thinking, spatial awareness, and ability to coordinate with multidisciplinary teams. Constantly learning through experience, I’m interested in connecting the dots between different cultures and building communities.
