Hi, I’m a camera operator with a passion for capturing real, meaningful moments. I specialize in documentaries, corporate videos, ads, and short films, and I love helping stories come to life in a way that connects with audiences. I shoot primarily with the Sony FX6, aiming to create cinematic visuals that feel authentic and impactful. Always happy to collaborate and learn from others in the field!

Welcome, Andres! Thanks for introducing yourself—your passion for capturing authentic, cinematic visuals really shines through. If you haven’t already, I’d definitely recommend getting involved in the Cinematography Lounge here on Stage 32: https://www.stage32.com/lounge/cinematography. It’s a great space to share your experience, connect with fellow DPs and directors, and find exciting new collaborators. Looking forward to seeing more of your work and insights in the community!

Welcome Andres! I am insanely jealous you were able to secure a mall for filming a project. The John Hughes and Kevin Smith fanboy in me would kill for an opportunity like that! Welcome!

Jordan Smith Thanks for feedback and indeed we did secure shopping mall's 2 & 3 floor 3 days in a row from 3pm to 9pm and shoppers could visit shops between takes. Here is electronic preas kit with storyboards and BTS photos in the end https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/178XJWadcc1nVUTjEHMuMkhSeDwYFrV4bC7g\_LxQ5--A/edit

That's a great shot, Andres Kostiv! What's the name of the shot? I remember there was a video on Stage 32 about the different shots in cinematography, but I can't think of the names.

Thanks, Andres Kostiv. Oh yeah, wide shot. That's one of my favorite shots. I just remembered another one of my favorites. The close-up.
