Talk to me, shoot with meFun — Piroon Thaicharoen
I'm a videographer who looks after each job myself, from start to finish. Every project begins with simple questions: where will this clip live, who will watch it, and what should they do once it ends? If the answers aren't clear yet, I think them through with you until we see the same picture — and only then plan the shoot.
Over ten years in the field let me see both what you expect and what is possible on the day, and agree the way of working before we start. On almost every job I do the idea, script, shoot, edit and grade myself; some jobs have an assistant, some a crew — which is how I came to know every stage.
- 10+
years of real shoots — cities, mountains and overseas; tough, persistent, and willing to go the distance for the picture
- 1–3
people — the whole job alone, or a small crew scaled to the scope; more or fewer hands to fit the budget
- All in one place
idea, script, planning, shoot, edit, grade, sound and direction — and I can coordinate in place of a producer when needed

The way I thinkwhen the brief is not clear yet
Many clients come to me before they can fully explain what they need. The waste-sorting plant began without a clear way to tell its business story; we shaped an outline and produced a video for its presentation. For the electricity authority's CSR film, the client provided only the broad picture, so I helped make the story clear before filming.
There is no need to wait for a finished brief. Tell me what the video is for and send what you know; we will find the rest together, and I will help shape an approach and rough budget before you decide.
Let'stalk.
