Recent work: First-person narrative video for Monash University

I had the pleasure to work on a first-person narrative video for Monash Education about Mokhamad Iksan, an alum making a difference in his local community in rural Indonesia.

When Mokhamad Iksan won a scholarship to Monash to complete his Masters Degree he vowed he would use his knowledge to help his rural community in Malang, Indonesia. Iskan is the founder of EQuIC, a non-profit foundation designed to improve the quality of education in rural areas.

This was shot over a weekend on a tight budget and edited quickly afterwards.

Recent work: Video for the Tropical Forest Alliance 2020

I am very happy to share this brand video I produced for the Tropical Forest Alliance 2020 (World Economic Forum).

We produced multi-camera interviews in Jakarta and shot footage in Kalimantan (Borneo) and Sumatra, Indonesia. It also includes 2-D motion graphics.

It is edited in a narrative style, with soundbites from interviewees introducing the purpose of the organization and featuring two case studies from Brazil and Indonesia.

I really enjoyed working on this project, as I am particularly interested in climate change and environmental issues.

Recent work: Executive portraits

Recently I was commissioned to shoot corporate portraits of a company’s executives in Asia.

As usual with this type of shots, time was limited, so I made arrangements so that everyone could stand for a portrait in a short period of time. Using the same lighting setup also allowed consistency.

Here is a sample of the portraits in black and white.

Today’s office: Jakarta, Indonesia

I am shooting photo and video for an international client in a 5-star hotel in Central Jakarta, Indonesia. This assignment involved a lot of planning and pre-production to make sure the setup is right and everything runs smoothly today. The assignment included multi-camera, continuous recording of a live event with 100+ people and several interviews.
