Jan’s filmmaking journey began with a VHS camcorder, when he shot skateboard films as a teen. Drawn to movement, lighting, and lens choices, he built a career as a DP, collaborating with top directors on fashion films and TVCs.

In 2018, he felt the urge to go beyond visuals and step into directing. Once he did, there was no turning back. Now, he thrives on shaping stories from start to finish, blending technical precision with instinctive storytelling. For him, great films come from strong teams and fresh approaches.

Yet, two hearts still beat in his chest—the DP chasing stunning shots and the director capturing raw, effortless moments. This dual background makes him adaptable, hands-on, and always ready to push creative boundaries.
