About me and my activity
Hello,
I’m Alexander Fontana
Cinematographer/ director of photography, EASA certified
drone pilot( A1/A3,A2)
and Drone Gimbaloperator
After experiencing the essence of photography with my father, my passion to keep the view, the breath and the emotion of an instant, constantly gained importance in my life.
Following the workshop “MOV!E IT” for camera-assistance at cinema productions, I could make the first steps on film sets as grip-assistant.
In 2013 I was successfully admitted to the School for Documentary, Television and New Media ZeLIG, where I graduated with distinction in 2016.
My effort to freeze and re-experience time and space has moved closer and is now my primary motivation for why I do what I do.
I´m actually working as a cinematographer/dop, drone pilot and Gimbaloperator for fiction films, documentaries, short films and advertising.
My experience is expanding constantly and I’m looking forward to new adventures.
