Available to hire
I’m Adam Wakeling, a Berlin-based filmmaker and multi-skilled production professional with over two decades of experience across film, television, and documentary. I combine hands-on creative work — camera, editing, and sound — with strategic leadership, having run and grown two businesses and managed international partnerships with broadcasters and NGOs.
My approach is detail-oriented, collaborative, and delivery-driven. I thrive under pressure, enjoy mentoring teams, and am fluent in English with strong German, Spanish and Portuguese skills, which helps me work across cultures and markets.
