Adelina Vancea
Hello everyone!
I was born and raised in Transylvania, Romania, but am currently residing in Tokyo, Japan.
Being a holder of 2 bachelor's degrees, in Computer Science and Cinematography, I combine these 2 disciplines, while working as a cinematographer (&camera assistant), photographer and video editor. I speak Romanian & English fluently, while my Japanese  level is conversational. I love focusing my energy on creating content, being passionate about working on music videos, commercials and films/TV shows. When I'm not working on videos, I enjoy taking pictures and playing with colors while editing them. I strongly invite you to check out both my video and photo work, in hopes that you will understand me better as an individual and working professional.
I hope to show people what it's like to see the world through my lenses.
