My Work in Action
A selection of my work.
BFMTV

Project Notes
These are some of the live reports I worked on at BFMTV. I was part of the on-location team, overseeing the broadcast truck. I handled both sound and video for these segments. The coordination team generally determined where we set up.

These are some of the BFMTV broadcasts produced away from the main studios that I helped set up, providing technical support and working as a camera operator and floor assistant.
Champions League Final — PSG / ARS
Music video
Project Notes
Project Notes
I'm particularly proud of this music video, which was my latest project in this format at the time of writing. I directed, shot, and edited it. My creative intention was clear: a visual journey from loneliness and inner turmoil toward emotional detachment and a hardened heart. The video portrays a toxic relationship and the artist's gradual loss of sensitivity to pain.
This was my very first music video. I chose to create it in 3D to challenge myself and, above all, to keep costs down. I am pleased with the result. Although the animation still leaves room for improvement, the aim was to demonstrate my approach to lighting, framing, and, most importantly, directing, rather than to showcase my 3D skills.
BTS BEHIND THE SCENE
Project Notes
I created these behind-the-scenes films with a visual style I particularly enjoy. I drew inspiration from Dave Malave's behind-the-scenes work, including his films for BLACKPINK's Lisa. I aimed for a similarly energetic approach, with an editing rhythm closer to a music video. The goal was to keep viewers engaged from start to finish while staying true to the purpose of a behind-the-scenes film: revealing what happens on set.
I created this personal film independently. Because it is autobiographical in nature, working on it myself felt like the most authentic approach. It was a rewarding experience, both personally and technically. A friend helped me with the tracking shots in which I appear on screen. I am very pleased with the final result and the message I was able to convey, especially as the audience response far exceeded my expectations.

Documentaries / Personal Films
I worked as a lighting technician on this project, helping ensure the equipment and technical setup ran smoothly throughout the shoot. It was a valuable experience during my first year of studies and one of my earliest opportunities to work on a film set.
Project Notes
I took on several roles during this fiction shoot. Initially brought in to film the behind-the-scenes content, I also stepped in as a lighting technician and camera operator to support the crew. The experience helped me become more versatile and learn to respond quickly while managing several responsibilities at once.

This shoot was a real challenge: creating a fiction film from start to finish in just 48 hours. The process was intense, but I am very pleased with what we achieved in the time available. Before the shoot, I contributed to production and screenwriting. On set, my main role was camera operation. With only four people on the crew and such a tight deadline, we all had to be adaptable and take on multiple responsibilities.
FICTION
Interviews / Reports
Project Notes
These reports were among my earliest projects, created during an internship at the beginning of my second year of studies. I wanted to give the company's videos a recognizable visual identity, using a consistent approach to color in both the footage and the thumbnails to spark curiosity and encourage viewers to click. Since the company wanted to reach a younger audience, I chose a dynamic editing style and a strong visual identity. I directed, filmed, and edited the videos, and oversaw the entire production.
Corporate Films / Games
Project Notes
I directed and shot both projects. For the CEA video, I worked within a strict institutional brief. The client chose the setting, and we carefully adapted it to make it work on camera. The Vai Cuisine project gave me much greater creative freedom, and I also handled the edit. The client was very pleased with this tailored approach, which supported her goal of showcasing and selling her organic food range.
