AI imaging services
High end artistic AI image rendering for your exact needs. Super fast, convenient, and money-saving option where imagination is our limit. Many totally different styles. See Galleries for examples.
My services to film producers and TV broadcasters:
I also offer consulting – freelance services as a cameraman, assistant, and also a fixer (location facilitator) for crews working in the Caribbean. Knowing how a crew works, helps me assist with finding locations, organizing customized setups, and finding other professionals to help you. Rigging forest canopy for nature filming, setting tracks to difficult locations, transporting your kits, finding or making unusual props – it all can be done using specialized professional partners I do have around here. Being a European professional, makes it natural for me to respect tight schedules and partners’ time.
I do have experience as a fixer working for big nature TV producers and crews, and can be “your guy” in the Caribbean, saving you lots of headache and time. I also have experience as a fixer in solving emergency situations – be it with crew health problems, vehicles stuck in forest, and so on (for Plimsoll Productions, BBC). Also filming in the Caribbean when you can’t send your crew – time-lapses, drone work, nature, interviews, etc.
My Drone Mapping services
available in Dominica and the Caribbean – crafted for surveyors, inspectors, engineers, architects and construction managers, agriculture professionals, disaster and rescue planning, land owners, and more. Huge, GPS-enabled topography maps and 3D models. See this page on my other site for details.
My Aerial photography and video
using pro drones: Bird’s eye view images and close-range fly-over videos greatly enhance my overall offer, being a perfect addition to real estate photography, tourism, nature, and most other works. I love filming butter-smooth footage flying in tight forest spaces. Sped up, this can also make great extra footage for nature action scenes.
