For the past ten years I've been working around the world as a travel videographer.

About Ivan A.

I have been a professional filmmaker, editor and video journalist for more than fifteen years. As storyteller, I seek to work on long-term, in-depth projects in which I strive for present narratives in an essential way. I believe images make a critical contribution by revealing the subjects of history that lack voice. At the core of my work is a lighted love of people. I worked internationally both on personal social projects as well as on a wide variety of film, TV and Internet Productions in, amongst other places, Angola, Belgium, Brazil, Denmark, England, Nigeria, The Netherlands and Spain. I speak English, Spanish, Portuguese and some French
