Working as a journalist since 1997 I’ve been constantly dealing with video storytelling. From news issues to entertaining morning stories, from TV and Radio to SMM content - I’m good in creating stories. Nowadays I can easily do it in smartphone using my experience. With the voice over or special effects, with animation or music. I practice it myself since 2012. I’m doing workshops on smartphone video for years - for journalists, bloggers, for anyone who has a smartphone.
