Production, fixing, and fieldwork across documentary, broadcast, and brands.
Marseille vs Liverpool for CBS Sports Golazo
Field Producer: Christian Letourneau | DP: Thomas Vinrich
IMG ordered a pre-match capsule to capture the temperature in Marseille ahead of their massive Champion’s League clash against Liverpool. I turned this around in a weekend, conducting interviews amongst local fans, ultras legends, and journalists in both French and English. I translated it all into a tight script with English translations to ensure precision for my interviewees and make life easier at the edit bay in London. Incredible privilege to share a tiny part of the stage with Micah, Thierry, Jamie, and Kate.
AMaury GUichon’s Real Life School of Chocolate
Producer: Christian Letourneau | DP: Kyle Krupinsky | Chef Amaury Guichon
This mini-doc, published alongside the release of Guichon’s Netflix series “School of Chocolate,” takes a closer look at the creative vision and daily rigors of Guichon’s work as an educator and artist. Our one-day shoot had to capture the unstaged buzz of an active teaching classroom while working through a complex shotlist to stage one of Amaury’s signature creations.
Chef Amaury and his team have very exacting standards for the visual identity of his work. This one required a lot of pre-production relationship building and really good proof of concept to get everyone aligned and excited.
Celebrating 10 Years of the Cronut with Dominique Ansel
Producer: Christian Letourneau | DP: Sam Wells | Chef Dominique Ansel
For this Matfer x Chef’s Roll spot, we only had a few hours to create a convivial moment with one of pastry’s most famous faces. Really tight pre-pro and my familiarity with the demands of filming in a working kitchen allowed us print a big package of assets while letting Chef Dominique’s natural charm shine through. Best on-set crafty I’ve ever had.
