Making films with friends

Camera work on my phone, ideas for a scene and helping friends bring their projects to life.

Finding my place on a shoot

On a film with a friend, I operated the camera on my phone and contributed ideas about where people should stand and how to frame the scene. He had written the script and took care of the edit.

I enjoy working with people who know their craft. When an idea I bring helps a scene, it gives me confidence in what I can contribute. Film is also a way to express how I see things and make something I’m excited to show friends and family.

Music videos with Tatsumi

Tatsumi is a friend who makes rap. I helped out on two of his music videos, 1er AOÛT and SALE HIVER. Both include me in their thanks credits.

Around the camera

The finished clip is only one part of a shoot. Coton Production’s making-of follows the work around the videos, and Tatsumi’s reel gives another glimpse of the project.
