Experience
Camera assistant intern
Palearctic Films- I contributed to the production and post-production of two documentaries: “Invasoras” and “Turón”.
- I filmed mountain goats in Sierra Nevada, birds in the wetlands of Cádiz, night-sky and plant-growth timelapses, and urban monk parakeets in Barcelona.
- I translated the complete script of Turón from Spanish into English.
- I also worked as a data manager, editing assistant, colourist and assistant scriptwriter.
Filming in tropical forests
Caimanes en Costa Rica- I have travelled to the tropical forests of South and Central America on several occasions to film and photograph animals, plants and fungi.
- These trips taught me to work in challenging conditions, far from civilisation, with high humidity and long hikes carrying heavy equipment to find the species I wanted to film.
- Speaking Spanish with local communities has helped me learn from their knowledge and reach places rarely visited by tourists.
- I have filmed and photographed monkeys, caimans, snakes, toucans, birds of prey, hummingbirds, rodents and countless invertebrates, among many other species.
