HELLO, I'M
Manos Kalafatelis.
About
MY BACKGROUND
My journey into the world of filmmaking was sparked by a deep fascination with the art of storytelling through visuals.
From early on, I recognized the importance of the camera team in capturing the essence of a narrative and translating it into a powerful visual language.
Throughout my career, I have developed a comprehensive set of skills and expertise that make me a valuable asset to any production. Being a camera assistant is not just a job; it's my passion. I am dedicated to the craft and continuously seek opportunities for growth and improvement.
My goal is to contribute to the success of every project I am a part of by ensuring that the camera department operates seamlessly, capturing the director's vision with precision and creativity. I look forward to the opportunity to bring your creative vision to life, one well-framed shot at a time.
