BIO
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Drama and Theatre Arts and a Bachelor of Arts Honours in Film and Visual Media from the University of the Free State (2011-2016). My career began in 2016 at Palama Productions, where I served as co-producer, production manager, and editor. I have contributed to various television productions, including Elders, Op Pad met Dana Snyman, Oorsee, Spoegwolf Soek Nuwe Bloed, and Trou Tunes, showcasing my skills in both production and directing.
I co-produced the award-winning short film Die Leeftyd van ‘n Orgideë for the 2018 kykNET Silwerskerm Festival, and went on to co-produce the feature film Skemerson (2019) and co-direct the documentary Droogte (2019). My documentary work includes From Parow to Parow Fest: The Jack Parow Story and Africa’s Home Run (2020). I have also produced and edited several documentaries, such as Pioneer Jews of Southern Africa (Boerejode) and En Tog Die Deuntjie Draal… Die Koos du Plessis Verhaal.
In addition to film production, I have experience in digital asset management, e-learning, concept trailers, and real estate videos. Currently, as a remote freelancer, I am actively engaged in multiple projects, demonstrating my commitment to
the evolving film industry.


MY SETUP
My workspace is a quiet, well-lit room with minimal distractions, featuring a large desk facing a window with blackout curtains for adjustable lighting. I use a MacBook Pro M2 with a second monitor, Magic Mouse, wireless keyboard, and 100mbps fiber internet, with backup mobile internet and power supply available. I have 40TB of storage for managing large files.
For audio and visual needs, I have studio monitors for sound mixing, noise-canceling headphones, a high-definition webcam, and an ergonomic office chair with lumbar support. My software setup includes the Adobe Creative Cloud Suite on an optimized MacBook, with files organized on a NAS with backup solutions, and a second monitor for multitasking.
The aesthetics of my workspace include art, plants, adjustable lighting, and a nearby shelf with books and project props to enhance creativity and inspiration.
