FILM & VIDEO
An award winning cinematographer Daniel has a deep passion for film making. Whether its telling a story through an emotive documentary or a high energy fashion TVC he always brings that passion to the table. Film making is a team process and Daniel has the ability and experience to direct both talent and crew. Each job requires different levels of production and Daniel Allen Studio can manage all aspects. From story boarding to post production.
Commercial Video/Film
Working, as both a Director and DP, Daniel can lead the creative team when producing video/film content for his clients. He works closely with a production team of producers, MUA’s, stylists & aerial team where needed. Each team is built according to the job and production budgets. Daniel is equally happy on ‘one man band’ jobs where travel schedules, visa requirements or budgets dictate the run of play.
