since 2003 I have been in charge of the claris video department, a communication and advertising company specializing in the yacht and super yacht industry. since 2006 I have been working part-time providing video production and post-production in full HD format: director of photography, steadicam operator, helicopter operator, editor, colorist, sound designer and music composer. around 50 films between 3 and 13 minutes were made.

my other part-time work is dedicated to writing and producing art films, documentaries and portraits
in 2007, two one-minute films: "deepness of choice" and "time swallows the voice and the words" were selected in belgium at the oneminute belgianopenfestival and were part of the french representation at the "world one minute 2008". they are also exhibited in the today art museum in beijing, during the official program of the olympic games. this exhibit travels for two years around the world in the contemporary art museums and festivals.

in 2008, the one-minute film "two" win the “special jury mention" at the “lille film festival”. the short film: painting with the dragonfly was shot in the USA and was selected at the 2009 international festival cinérail. it was also screened in the first part of the antonioni’s film" le desert rouge" at the cinema “l’univers” in lille.

since 2003, I have been devoting myself to writing, preparing and making films, but also to their promotions and broadcasts because a film is made to be seen, first and foremost
