From the set.
Marcos was a pleasure to work with. We worked together capturing B-roll for my short film. He did a solid job. I look forward to working with him again.
Marcos is an incredibly talented DP who brings hard work and a great attitude to every project. He is very versatile; we needed a specific anamorphic look, and he delivered. He has a great gear selection in his grip truck and comes prepared and ready to do his best work. I’m grateful I hired him!
Marcos was great to work with. He was my B-Operator on a documentary shoot and did a fantastic job. He also has his own truck and was able to provide everything we needed for G&E and Camera, as we were coming from out of town. He definitely made the shoot seamless with his great attitude and knowledge.
I loved working with Marcos. He’s knowledgeable, creative, and a talented cinematographer. Would definitely recommend working with him!
