Bio
I have been a Gaffer - Chief Lighting Technician for the past 25 years with experience working in the various arts, including feature length films, documentaries, commercials and television. I have worked on local and international projects both in Israel and abroad. I believe my interpersonal skills are excellent; I have extensive experience working as a team member and as a team leader and enjoy both. I have a strong sense of professionalism and integrity. Below is a list of the international films on which I have participated. Upon request, I will provide the list of 15 Israeli feature movies on which I have worked, along with the commercials, television shows and documentaries.
