For any company wishing to give its clients a taste of their product, or simply to build their brand, videos are perhaps the most effective medium on the market today: they can be viewed on websites, on cellphones, in offices or at travel and trade shows.

I branched off into video-making in 2003 and have enjoyed story telling through this medium over the years. I have worked on television documentaries (see this documentary in Ecuador for Paladin Invision, for example), done a show-reel as a travel show presenter, and worked on various short promotional films for clients in South America, including the Inca Trail and the Galapagos Islands. See my YouTube channel.

At the Quito Visitors' Bureau, I built on my previous experience in two ways: first, planning and working on the production of the various television crews that came to fillm in the city (Travel Channel, BBC Fast Track, German TV, a handful of Latin American stations, etc.); second, being involved in the promotional videos we produced for the city. For examples of the latter work, see this playlist.

My energies are now dedicated to producing videos for the company I now for, Metropolitan Touring in Ecuador, as part of its marketing and communications strategy. We are working in HD and I'm enjoying being 'close to the action' again - whether filming, editing or post-producing. For the results of my team's work, see this Vimeo link.

Watch out for videos from across South America coming soon!
