From Treeplanting to Pixel Wrangling
My parents left communist Czechoslovakia for Canada, which is where my name comes from. I grew up near Nelson, BC, and knew from a young age that I wanted to make films.
That became real in my early twenties. I planted trees all over BC to pay for my first camera and computer, then spent years taking on odd jobs and building a business from scratch. Today I’ve completed hundreds of projects with millions of views.
How I work
Every client wants something different, whether it’s an authentic story or a product launch, but the approach is the same. I don’t just shoot pretty frames. I build a narrative, so your brand becomes the protagonist and your audience wants to keep watching.
Anyone can shoot decent video on a phone now, and that has raised the bar for everyone. Professional work still stands out, and a clear story is what makes the difference.
Why work with me
- Lean budgets: No agency or production company overhead. If a project needs a bigger crew, I assemble freelancers for exactly what it requires.
- Speed: No red tape. When you call, I answer, and your project keeps moving.
- A real collaborator: Your vision shapes the project, and I listen.
- Low travel costs: I’m based near an airport, just a couple of flights from almost anywhere, and I hold Slovak citizenship and an EU passport, so shooting in Europe is easy.
