David Olonoff
Director / Assistant Director
Hello, I'm David.
Just a Brooklyn-based hipster who loves making great films.
With professional experience in all stages of video production, I have the skills necessary to make your vision come to life.
What I do
Director
My specialty is the collaboration I prioritize between cast and crew. With my emphasis on dynamic camera movement and contrasting visual cues my work captures an energetic dramatic style.
Assistant Director
I communicate closely with all department heads to develop proper shooting schedules, shot lists and call sheets. Having AD’d in television, feature and commercial work, I'm able to maintain a realistic and efficient shoot.
