Hi, I'm Richard, and I am in love with traveling, photography, and filmmaking. Traveling satisfies my never-ending curiosity and passion for exploring. Visual storytelling is a perfect avenue to share my experiences from my travels with the world. I capture the land, the sea, and most of all, the people. When on the road, I observe and document what I see and feel. I aim to leave a small footprint. Remote locations and physical discomfort won't stop me in my quest to deliver the best story and imagery possible. On the contrary, I thrive in such environments.
My professional life is also revolving around beautiful images. I make my living as a visual effects artist. You can find my name among the visual effects credits in several known movies.
Originally from Slovakia, I am currently on a work contract in Australia.

Antarctic season 2022-2023 with Bark Europa in photographs
มุมมอง 1Kปีที่แล้ว
It's been a long and fruitful season working as a guide on Bark Europa, crossing the Drake Passage 5 times, visiting South Georgia and Tristan da Cunha, and crossing the Scotia Sea, and South Atlantic all the way to Cape Town. These are only a fraction of the pictures taken during 3 trips. Photographs were taken with Fujifilm cameras and a few with GoPro (Fujifilm X-T2, Fujifilm X_H1, GoPro Her...
For Ukraine. My first attempt to compose a soundtrack for a video (Reaper + free instruments)
มุมมอง 2182 ปีที่แล้ว
Uncharted waters for me. It is the first time I attempted to write music for a video rather than use royalty-free services. Initially, I wanted to test out Reaper as my audio application of choice but then the whole thing evolved. At the same time war broke out and I thought this could be a great way to show my support to the people of Ukraine. There is not much more to say. All people with com...

Sinai Trail
มุมมอง 5K6 ปีที่แล้ว
It’s here, a short travel video from my recent trip to South Sinai in Egypt. We spent 10 days on the Sinai Trail with Bedouin people getting an interesting glimpse into the Bedouin lifestyle and culture. We started in Nuweiba, spent few days in the desert, hiked the mountain around St Catherine, witnessed a procession in St Catherine Monastery and most of all we met a whole bunch of great peopl...

Five years with Fujifilm X-series cameras (photo slideshow)
มุมมอง 3877 ปีที่แล้ว
It has been 5 years since I started using Fujifilm X-series cameras. It was Fujifilm X-E1 that opened the door to this camera system for me. Quite a journey. I was thinking what video to do for this "anniversary". I went through my archive of images taken with the Fujifilm x-series cameras and I picked some of my favourite ones. Visit the blogpost if you are interested in little stories about h...
HOME - short holiday video from my home in Slovakia
มุมมอง 5587 ปีที่แล้ว
I spent my last holiday with my parents back home in Slovakia. It was the after a long 2 years since I last visited home. I did this small project for fun. At the same time it was a good learning experience and I created something we can look at with my family few years from now and reflect on these awesome times. I used Fujifilm X-T2, Gopro Hero 5 and DJI Mavic for capturing the footage. All e...
Grading DJI Mavic footage in Davinci Resolve 14 without LUT
มุมมอง 1.2K7 ปีที่แล้ว
This is an example how you can grade a footage shot with DJI Mavic in Davinci Resolve 14 without LUT from scratch. As you will see I am using lot of same nodes and techniques as in my previous tutorial (th-cam.com/video/SFsi-o9zhOI/w-d-xo.html) I used a free version of Davinci Resolve as well as LUT that comes with it. Camera settings: Picture profile: D-Log at 4K Sharpness: 1 Contrast: -2 Satu...

Luminar Neptune, photo editing example
มุมมอง 1.9K7 ปีที่แล้ว
This is a short example of photo editing in Luminar. Luminar Neptune is the latest iteration of Macphun's RAW conversion software. It comes with few improvements and new features. I am not looking at them all. Instead, I took this image and edited it from start to finish as I would during my usual image editing process. I took this image while back during my trip to Laos. I visited some remote ...
Flying DJI Mavic Pro around Sydney over the Easter break
มุมมอง 2437 ปีที่แล้ว
Nobody is born a perfect drone pilot and aerial cinematographer out of the box, right? I am a complete drone rookie with less than 7 hrs of flight under my belt. Mavic is the first and only drone I flew in my life. So I am learning. This footage is far from perfect but I keep it here to see and compare the progress with future videos. I made lots of rookie mistakes here as forgetting to tap to ...
