Check out this music video I shot while in Bali, Indonesia with @lexnourbeats , @swayveemusic & @iam_vicoka 🌴🎥 This project was a huge undertaking, 30 hours of flying each way, planning every scene from overseas, navigating language barriers, and working with a tight turnaround the moment we got back home. Despite all that, this trip was nothing short of amazing. I was surrounded by some seriously talented people who helped bring everything together. If I could go back, I wouldn’t change a thing. Shoutout to everyone involved in the production:@verohanberg @karolinahebdaa @nbdchris @egtheplaymaker @itsbmike @iam_vicoka @swayveemusic @lexnourbeats And to all the people we met along the way who brought nothing but good vibes 🙌 #musicvideo #torontodirector #cinematography #filmmaking #bali

Here’s the BTS video from our recently released shoot with @_mdmofficial , where I had the pleasure of serving as cinematographer. This was a 2-day shoot across 6 locations, and it was an absolute blast getting to finally put my @blazarlens.official Remus lenses to work, this was the first commercial I’ve had the chance to use them on. Huge shoutout to the crew who made this such a fun and smooth shoot, and to @directedbydario for the killer direction and edit on this piece. Enjoy the BTS and let me know what you think! #Torontodp #torontocinematographer #torontocommercial #torontofilm

I had the pleasure of being the cinematographer on this Toronto-shot commercial. We tackled six scenes across two days with a small but mighty crew. Tons of different lighting setups and camera builds went into getting these shots and I’ll be sharing BTS from the process soon.

Here’s a look at some stills from our most recent project with @directedbydario and @_MDMOfficial . Shot entirely on Blazar Remus anamorphic lenses, we leaned hard into their character and imperfections to elevate the visuals. This commercial explores the contrast between those who understand what it takes to be successful, and those who only dream about it #toronto #torontovideoproduction #torontodirectorofphotography #torontocinematography

Behind the scenes 🎬 from our recent shoot with @lexnour for “Sad Story.” The music video has been out for a few days now and it’s already performing really well on YouTube, if you haven’t watched it yet, go check it out. This project took two full days, multiple locations, and a wide range of camera setups to bring the story to life. The entire video was shot on Blazar Remus lenses, my go-to choice for narrative-driven music videos Let me know your thoughts on either the music video it’s self or on this mini BTS video! #torontomusicvideo #torontodirector #torontomusic #ottawamusicvideo #torontovideoproduction

Here’s a look at our newest music video with Lexnour – “Sad Story.” This was a story-driven project shot over two days in Hamilton, Ontario. I want to give a huge shoutout to the entire crew, I was extremely sick during both shoot days and honestly wasn’t sure we’d be able to pull it off, but thanks to the team, we captured everything and I’m incredibly proud of how it turned out.

I’m so excited to finally share this project that @directedbydario and I have had in the vault for quite some time — “Fire” by Alessia Cara. This song beautifully captures the burning passion between two people falling in love. From a cinematographer’s point of view, we all felt that shooting this entirely in black and white would enhance the emotional depth and help push the narrative behind the vision. Our team was absolutely unbelievable on this shoot. I can’t thank everyone enough for their hard work during this extended one-day production — from the camera team to art, lighting, and every department in between, the aesthetics of this video truly shine. Let me know your thoughts on the project in the comments below! 🎬 Directed by: Dario Caracciolo (@directedbydario ) Produced by: Dario Caracciolo & Andrew MacLennan Production Manager: Danny Bui (@dannybuii ) Director of Photography: Andrew MacLennan (@amxvisuals ) Male Actor: Trey Joshua (@trey.joshua ) Edited by: Dario Caracciolo & Alessia Cara 1st AC / Steadicam: Julien Mamazza (@julienmamazza ) 2nd AC: Krenar Jakupi (@93sinz ) Gaffer: Gabriel Dinardo (@gib.din ) Grip: Oliver Romo (@oliverrommon ) Drone Operator: Kyle Pearlman (@pearly101 ) Hair Stylist: Vincenza Caracciolo (@hairbyenzac ) VFX Artist: Mariano Segat (@marianosegat ) Colourist: Manthos G.

I’m so excited to share stills from the latest music video I was the Cinematographer on, for Alessia Cara — “Fire” which just dropped on YouTube! This is one of my favourite projects I’ve worked on to date. I absolutely love the black and white aesthetic throughout the video, it was such a unique touch. this was shot using a Red Helium and a Raven as B cam, using sigma Cine glass with a 1/4 pro-mist to soften the image. Here are a few of my favourite stills, make sure to check out the full video! 🔥🎬
