Tijn Fonken (19)

When I was younger, I was already fascinated by cameras. On TV, I always saw big men walking around with large TV cameras. A few years later, when I was 12, I received a camera for Sinterklaas (a Dutch holiday) and started making videos.

Years later, I decided to pursue an audiovisual education at SiNTLUCAS in Eindhoven. During these years, I further developed my skills in the audiovisual field.

During my internship, I discovered that I really enjoyed working on set, especially in the camera department. That’s why I chose to continue developing myself as a 2nd AC for films and series.

Over the past year, I gained a lot of on-set experience with commercials and contributed to a new series for Videoland. This year, there is a series for Amazon on the schedule, and I hope it doesn’t stop there!
