Two native languages, and four more I record content in. A brand that wants to speak to six audiences doesn't need to hire six creators.

Where I'm growing

Tech & Digital

One collaboration, and it's the direction I want to take. I bring the same thing to tech that I bring to beauty: on camera, in my own words, the file ready to publish.

Daniela, I watched the video and it's really well made.
What impressed me most was the structure: you open by introducing yourself without sounding like an ad, and only then does the agency come in. That's rare — most people put the brand in at 3 seconds and lose half the audience.
The cuts land at the right pace, and the teaser at the end was the smartest call in the whole video. It builds anticipation without promising anything.
+2,000 views in under 10 hours speaks for itself. Congrats 👏

Open to other kinds of collaboration. Let's talk.

Formats

Four formats, and the choice isn't a matter of taste: it depends on where the video will live and what it has to do there.

Testimonial: On camera, saying what changed after using the product. My words, built from the points the brand needs said.; Best forWhen the promise needs a real person's name on it.

Educational: One step explained as it happens: how it goes on, in what order, what not to do.; Best forProducts that get lost because the first use goes wrong.

Aesthetic: No speaking. Close on the gesture and the texture: cream settling, a curl clumping, the shine on a finished nail.; Best forTop of funnel, where the image has to stop the thumb.

Problem/Solution: Three beats in one piece: the hair on a bad day, the product going in, the result at the end.; Best forPaid ads, which is where this arc converts best.

How I work

01
Contact
You tell me the product, who it's for, and where the video will be published. Those three things are enough to say whether the job is mine to take, and what it costs.
02
Briefing
We settle format, tone, language and deadline before the camera goes on. It's the step that looks skippable and isn't: changing the script after filming costs the whole shoot.
03
Filming
I film in my own space, in natural light. No crew to assemble, no studio to book. This is where the short turnaround comes from.
04
Delivery
I edit and deliver myself: publish-ready files. The brand gets the video from the person who shot it, without going through three middlemen.

About

Based in Portugal, with roots in Cape Verde. I film, edit and deliver: brands get publish-ready files without going through three intermediaries.

I work mostly in beauty and personal care, where the detail shows up close. Hair texture, the finish on a nail, the right gesture caught first time. That's the base of what I've done, but it isn't where I came from: my background is in engineering, and tech and digital is the direction I want to grow in. One collaboration so far — and that's where I want the next ones to be.

Português and kriolu are the two languages I think in, not the two I learned. It's what keeps a kriolu script from sounding like translated Portuguese, and it's the difference between speaking to a market and speaking from inside it.
