DIRECTOR / CINEMATOGRAPHER

Naturally, he then evolved into directing, establishing a distinctive, powerful style.

« The story behind a film is all about life experience and meeting yourself in the making process

I really do love collaborations, and my short films (Parasite Choi, Dreamalities & Run For The Truth) were all collaborative projects. 

​

It’s the best way to create things that are bigger than you are - a way to evolve, through the contact of the others. »
