Hi there, Oscar here. I’m a director-DOP specialising in advertising. My filmmaking journey began in high school when I picked up a camera with a clear creative vision for the first time and realised yelling ‘cut’ is way more satisfying than memorising the periodic table—and I haven’t looked back since.

After finishing high school, I took a gap year to explore my options, prepare university submissions, and freelance as a filmmaker. I was fortunate to secure spots at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts and Ringling College of Art and Design, earning a Dean’s scholarship at the latter.

Although deeply honoured by these opportunities, I chose to carve my own path and embrace a self-taught filmmaking education, allowing me the creative freedom to develop my craft organically. Translation: lots of trial and error, late nights, and “let’s fix it in post” moments.

As a director, I’m tech and Gen Z-focused, visually perfectionistic, and always looking to maximise production value beyond what the budget should allow, because who doesn’t love champagne results on a sparkling water budget?

Over the course of my career, I’ve had the privilege of performing many different filmmaking roles on set, collaborating with incredible teams, and working on shoots in 18 different countries. These experiences have not only shaped my skills but also provided invaluable insights and memories that I bring to every project.

Enough about me—let’s schedule a coffee or video call soon. I’d love to hear about you, your story, and how we can make some cinematic magic together.
