Three makers, one set.
Beeldkracht is a small production house from Voorbeeldstad. A director, a camera operator and an editor, together since 2014. We think along from the very first idea.
“Whoever you call is also behind the camera.”
Why we stay small
We started in 2014 with one camera and a van. Now we have a studio on Voorbeeldstraat, a case full of lights and a drone. The team is still the same size, and that’s a choice.
With three people, nothing needs handing over. Nadine has the first conversation and is on set too. Geert already knows which lights to bring. Dagmar knows the story before she opens the first clip.
That keeps a film personal. And you don’t pay for account managers and meetings, but for picture, sound and editing.
The crew
- Director and producerNadine PostFinds the story and asks the questions. Spent years as an editor at a regional broadcaster and can put a nervous colleague at ease within five minutes.
- Camera and droneGeert RozendaalDecides the light and the picture. Flies the drone with an A2 certificate and happily lugs along a light you’ll never notice afterwards.
- Editing and colourDagmar PrinsTurns hours of footage into a two-minute film. Does the colour grading and sound, and adds the subtitles.
In the kit
Good equipment doesn’t stand out. But you notice it. In sound that’s clear, skin tones that are right and footage that doesn’t shake.
