ABOUT ME
Evan Zell
With over 15 years of experience in the Television, Video Production, and Live Production industries, I am an Australian-based Director of Photography, Licensed RPAS Pilot, Live Director, and certified DaVinci Resolve Colourist. My clients and peers know me as a "one-stop-shop" for every shoot day, as I come fully equipped with everything that may be required, and am flexible and comfortable working both solo and with a full team.
I have a very wide client base, being able to service many different industries with my extensive equipment list and wide industry experience. I specialise in mid-level production quality, making me an affordable option while still being able to produce an acceptable production quality.
My inventory of equipment includes digital cinema, broadcast, still photography and time-lapse camera systems, lenses, drones, live production, lighting, gimbal and audio equipment, making me a versatile option for a wide variety of productions. I specialise in corporate video production, broadcast and online TVC production, live streaming/live multi-cam, remote transmissions (live cross), licensed RPAS/drone operations, government infrastructure, construction progress filming, leisure/lifestyle television, medical video production, training & induction video production, press & red carpet events, event videography, and construction time-lapse.
I am based in both Sydney and the Central West of NSW, frequently travelling between Meadowbank and Orange every few days, making both city and country filming convenient and cost-effective for my clients. I am available for work not only Australia-wide but also overseas.
