Description

Des del 2010 vaig començar darrere la càmera sota l'aigua durant uns 4 anys, moment en què vaig començar a gravar videoclips. El 2015 vaig iniciar un canvi radical i professional a la meva vida obrint Tupra Studio, un espai creatiu per a foto i vídeo... Des de llavors he passat per diferents llocs de treball dins de les produccions professionals fins que vaig trobar el meu lloc com a Focus Puller / 1r Assistent de Càmera, on em sento còmode i crec que faig una bona feina... Continuo en aquest càrrec combinat amb la gestió del meu petit servei i lloguer d'equips a Eivissa. Segueixo aprenent i treballant cada dia...
