Having
stemmed from a family of photographers, left playing as a child amidst an
attic full of old plate negatives & archaic enlargers, my fascination
with cameras and images started at an early age. Not to mention it subconsciously
sealing my career aspirations before my teens.
With this untimely ambition of becoming a cameraman, I started my path in the film industry as a teenager initially working as a clapper loader, then as a focus puller under many top UK DoP's on commercials, music videos and feature films.
In 1995, pursuing a dream, I decided to return
to my birth country to apply to the Academy of Dramatic Arts in Budapest.
However, I instead made my break towards becoming a DoP by beginning work
as a freelance cameraman in Hungary.
I completed my training at the National Film School in the UK, and have since
been working as a cinematographer shooting television commercials, music videos,
documentaries, and various drama projects on Motion Picture Film, High Definition
and Digi Beta.
