ENG Camera Operator in New York City:
Your Go-To Professional for Breaking News and Live Coverage
Looking for a reliable and skilled ENG camera operator
in New York City? With over 20 years of experience in electronic news gathering (ENG) and breaking news coverage, I’ve built my career around capturing important stories in dynamic,
fast-paced environments.
As a freelance director of photography (DP) and camera operator based in the United States for over a decade,
I have worked on global events including the U.S. presidential elections, United Nations General Assembly, and high-profile summits at the White House.
My experience extends to urgent global issues such as climate change and geopolitical crises, ensuring my ability to adapt to a variety of demanding shooting environments.
With a strong background as a TV reporter and correspondent, I bring valuable experience to every shoot. As a versatile camera operator, I often step into the role of interviewer, conducting interviews and asking key questions when a reporter, host, or producer is not available on set. My ability to seamlessly combine camera operation with conducting interviews ensures
high-quality production, even in fast-paced or dynamic environments.
From live broadcasts at the Olympic Games to live-coverage of major events like the U.S. Presidential Inauguration, I specialize
in delivering top-tier video content, no matter the situation.
Throughout my career, I’ve conducted interviews with high-profile figures including:
-
UN Secretaries General Ban Ki-Moon and Antonio Guterres
-
American actor and film producer Leonardo DiCaprio
-
Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi
-
Ambassadors and Permanent Representatives to the UN
This hands-on experience has allowed me to provide real-time coverage of major events, such as:
-
NATO Summit
-
APEC Summit
-
United Nations General Assembly
-
U.S. Presidential Elections
