INDIA (52mn doc.for CANAL +) (dec 2007)

This documentary will be broadcast on French chanel CANAL+ in 2008 in "les nouveaux explorateurs" collection.

Produced by BONNE PIOCHE who produced the famous "la marche de l'empereur"

With JEROME DELAFOSSE, we spent 4 weeks shooting in India, where we met fishermen. Got sick, got hot, got cold, but hopefully also got lots of cool images of Jerome interacting with all those beautifull indians from Calcuta to Cochin, Kerala, to Rameswaram to Puri to Gopalpur....

Shoot with a SONY Z1 and amazing CENTURY OPTICS X2 and WIDE ANGLE plus mat box and bunch of filters, learn a lot from DOP CHRISTOPHE GRAILLOT & VALLENTIN CARON those two guys gave me all their little secrets so on this job i felt like a DOP with all my gears... thanks... Currently editing... until end of January 2008, in a "curry free" environment.... with CHARLENE GRAVEL

BITTY MC LEAN (KINGSTON, JAMAICA)

Guillaume Bougard took me to Jamaica again for the making of BITTY MC LEAN new album.

This was my last job with dear PD150, (i got this camera in 2000 for the freediving film) so i guess 7 years is enough... Anyway...

Great chance to work again with SLY & ROBBIE and meet the man behind this incredible voice : BITTY... (we may go back in 2008 to make a "KINGSTON STYLE" music video....)

Its on this trip that TAXI GANG member nicknamed me "GREY CAP" since my face was always looking down to my camera view finder... the only thing they really saw of me was a Grey cap...

see some of it here

MS 13 (jan 2007)

Directed by good old friend MARCO NICOLETI, he took me to San Salvador with my PD150 to shoot the begining of his 52 mn documentary on one of the famous & worst gangs in the world. I loved it, so intense all your senses are awake, making images under this pressure is a great learning experience. (see a clip on my website)

HORACE ANDY LIVIN'IT UP

Shoot with PD150,
GUILLAUME BOUGARD, French reggae producer, asked me if i knew anything about reggae..."NO I said"... This one of the reason he asked me to come to Kingston Jamaica with him. We shot for a few weeks the making of a traditional reggae album with SLY & ROBBIE and HORACE ANDY. I m greatfull for learning so much, this was the first time I shoot this way... and loved it...
