I want to see everything - just curious
My name is Vojta Hönig, I'm a filmmaker and photographer, born in Czech Republic, currently based in Berlin.
I have experience in broadcasting, news coverage, documentaries, promo content, short films, music videos, live events and pedagogic multimedia content. As a photographer I am focused on photojournalism and documentary. I also participated in different multimedia projects including VR, AR and 360° media. Apart from European countries I have worked in different parts of world including Africa, South America and Asia. I have experience working in conflict zone areas (Eastern Ukraine, Crimea, Georgia, Syria).
I co-founded NEXT PICTURE production which has been active internationally since 2013, in the theatre and film industry.
These last 10 years I have spent mostly working in post-soviet countries, first as a freelancer, then as a cameraman / editor for Czech public TV, specialising in news between 2015 and 2018 (I made more than 400 news reports).
I am able to edit in Adobe Premiere / After Effects, Final Cut, DaVinci Resolve.
I speak English (C1), Czech (native), Russian (C1), German (B1) and French (B1), passive Ukrainian.
