wanna make a film?

My name is Johan Taljaard and I am a Western North Carolina-based cinematographer.

I produce captivating imagery that can mythologize your message and deliver it with the style and attitude your audience needs.

My skillset includes proficiency in cinematic interview setups, Vérité (observational) filmmaking, elevated B-Roll and landscape/nature work. I am a resourceful individual comfortable working in small crew situations and I’m always focused on solutions.

If you have a vision, I can make it happen.
