About me
My name is John Curtis, I am a working DP, Gaffer, Key grip, and fine artist with work exhibited in NYC and through several southern states. I have been working in cinematography for the past few years, primarily as a gaffer, I took some time away at the start of the COVID epidemic for personal safety but now I am looking to return to Indie Film.Referees:
Tomas Ackerman (DP) (ASC) removed
John Leblanc (DP) removed
Cedric Cheung-Lau (DP) (909) removed
Additional information:
I am well versed with the handling of most major lighting instruments, and generally operate in studio environments running 5k-20k units using industry standard 600 amp distribution. I have worked as a key grip as well and am comfortable enough with all standard rigging equipment, expect moving-vehicle camera mounting.
