Neani Neto
Based in Johannesburg, South Africa
I am a 25 year old cinematographer, editor and photographer.
I've had a passion for film for as long as I can remember and once I began with simple animations at the age of 13 I knew I would make films for the rest of my life.
My love of detail work and passion for visuals is why I focus on cinematography/videography and Video editing; I have 4 years experience as an editor and 5 as a cinematographer. Applying this passion to my favourite hobby (eating) has led me to develop a career in food photography as well.
My experience consists of (among other work) having shot: TV commercials (including for SunBet and CorruptionWatch), TV Series (mainly Now Or Never [SABC1] and I Am A Work Of Art [SABC, International]), corporate promo content (for clients including Mecer and African Bank), live music shows (including for Evert Snyman, and the Howie Combrink Band), and news inserts. I've edited TV Comercials, Series for SABC, news inserts as well as events/promotional packages for companies with Intellilab and Campus Media respectively. In addition I have produced and Directed a few of my own projects which have gone on to win awards and screen at a few local festivals.
