Personal project

Alongside my work as a 1st AC, I recently took on a different role in the creation of a very special personal project — together with an incredible team.

Libertà — filmposters 2025

Libertà (2025) — Short Film

Libertà is a Dutch short film directed by Dapper Bruijns and co-written by Raoul Karadag. The story is inspired by the life of my own grandmother. By taking on both the role of Production Management and Director of Photography, I was able to stay close to the heart of the story.

All her life she has been a free-spirited and headstrong woman, determined to live on her own terms. But when Alzheimer's begins to take hold, she is confronted with a new and sobering reality. The illness not only erodes her fierce identity — but also the self-image she has always known, the relationships that gave her strength, and ultimately, herself.

Libertà still Libertà still Libertà still Libertà still Libertà still Libertà still
Tristan Adelaar

About

"My grandfather, a former photographer, gave me my first camera when I was seven — a simple 35mm plastic point-and-shoot that looked more like a toy than a real instrument."

But from the moment I held that camera, I was hooked. Light, framing, and the magic of capturing a moment fascinated me instantly. Over the years, still images became moving images, and my passion for visual storytelling found its natural home in film.

As I grew deeper into the craft, it wasn't just the imagery that intrigued me — but the technology behind it. I became increasingly drawn to the tools and techniques that translate creative ideas into tangible, high-quality images.

Today I work as a 1st Assistant Camera, providing reliable technical support to cinematographers across commercials, music videos, and narrative productions. I'm experienced with ARRI camera systems (Alexa Mini, Mini LF, Alexa 35), DJI Ronin 2 support, car rigs, slider setups, and vertical video workflows. I work efficiently, maintain oversight on set, and ensure the camera department runs smoothly — from prep to wrap.
