With a wealth of experience and depth, Anton is a unique and accomplished filmmaker who brings a distinct perspective to his craft. That allows him to tell stories that touch, evoke emotions, raise questions, provoke, entertain, and inspire. As an aesthete, Anton's passion for film visuals is evident in his work.

His background is in sales and marketing and his first education was at a business school. After running his own experiential marketing and production company, Anton studied TV production and now works as a freelancer in the film industry. He has a wide range of experience, having worked on various projects including short and feature-length indie movies, music videos, and commercials, primarily as a gaffer, lighting technician, grip, camera operator, and sound recorded.

As an introverted observer of people, Anton has spent his entire life observing people and reading them. He has always used emotional intelligence, intuition, and instincts in his work, and these qualities are evident in his filmmaking.

Anton is a highly independent and self-directed professional who brings his unique vision, knowledge, and creativity to his projects. As a gaffer, Anton is known for his keen artistic eye and his ability to create a sense of feeling, shape, and mood through his lighting. He approaches lighting like painting, taking inspiration from some of the world's finest filmmakers and DPs. He has a reputation for being more like an artist than a technician, with a personal style that is dark and moody with contrast and shadows.

As a gaffer, Anton thinks like a director, because he is more like a director and he also constantly studies DPs and thinks like DPs which sets him apart from other gaffers.
