JASON BAFFA | CINEMATIC STORYTELLING

 
 

Freelance DP & Operator for Commercial, Documentary, and Branded Content

If you’re looking for strong visuals with an easy going, stoked presence on set, I’m here to help.

I’ve spent over two decades directing and shooting cinematic stories for national brands, studios, and independent productions. These days, I’m available as a freelance DP or camera operator — working with RED, Sony, and Canon systems across all types of shoots, from run-and-gun documentary to polished commercial work.

Whether you need someone to light and lead a small crew, or plug into an existing production, I bring a director’s eye, technical experience, and a collaborative mindset to every job. Having shot in the water, on the road, in studios, and on the fly, I always focus on telling a cinematic story and delivering what the client needs.

Let me know what you’re working on, I’d love to be part of it.
