Hi there! My name is Gina, I've been working as a video journalist for the last six years, with various travel adventures in between. I began my career working for Sky News New Zealand as a video journalist, and over four years with the company I covered everything from politics to sport to a Royal Tour. As a VJ for Sky I worked both locally and internationally - I was sent on assignment overseas multiple times. I'm confident interviewing, scripting, shooting, editing and performing on camera. Since moving to London I've been working for a media company which specialises in technology coverage - so product shots are a must, while I also work as a freelance producer for Al Jazeera. I'm friendly, outgoing (so know how to get the best out of talent) and best of all, can work to a deadline!

I'm a self-shooting director, DOP and preditor based in London. Showreel: https://vimeo.com/gloriakurnik/reel2015 I focus on character driven stories stressing on the quality and aesthetics during all of my productions and over time I have developed a distinctive visual style. From the zip-lines in the blue city of Jodhpur to the paths through the lush vegetation in Bornean rain forests, I've been mastering my glidecam technique to be able to feature the most adventurous shots.  I'm experienced in one-man-crew productions and usually handle the camera and sound on my own, hence the costs of the shoot are lower. I can take care of your project from conceptualisation until the final cut.  More links to the projects on request. I'm available for assignments worldwide.
