About

Hasan Noureddine is a director and cinematographer with almost a decade of experience in the field of film-making, and had capabilities in film editing, coloring, and directing; where he specialized in drama, psychology, and action film genres, as well as being a creative director to several TVCs. Hasan has finished in June 2019 an advanced Masters class in Hollywood with the prestigious ASC (The American Society of Cinematographers) which included several advanced technical and theoretical courses on Science of Optics, Product Lighting, Psychology of Cinematography, Special Effects, Commercial Cinematography, Green Screen, Color Grading, and Color Science; given by the top members of the ASC and experts in their fields in Hollywood. In parallel to his work as a director and cinematographer, Hasan generally prefers to direct the project while operating close to the camera, where he believes that his supervision of the camera embodies his vision to the given project, in which he considers that as one of his basic points of strength and made him build a successful career in his field. His work mentality and professional techniques enabled him to form feasible adaptability in any given project, where he can work in several circumstances and miscellaneous filming projects while maintaining his personal touch in directing, cinematography, and shooting. When Hasan started off working in the field of film, he was still a Lebanese International University student, studying Radio TV and Film (RDTV) major, even though he never had the idea of delving inside that field before. Hasan was always passionate, in his early days, with filming and photography, until he grew up and fond of this world, where he bought an editing program and started learning some simple tricks. He, later on, started working with a relative at a company in editing promos, trailers, and summarizing film stories, until he started making his own trailers, for fun. Hasan took the decision to study RDTV, which he considers a “great decision”. The encouragement and finding himself in that field of study made him excel in all of his major courses while continuing to gain professional and practical experience in the field at his relative’s company, freelancer, and giving a hand to his colleagues in their university projects. One notable project he worked on was his senior project, named “Marbotoun” (Tied Up), where it was officially selected to join the Notre-Dame University film festival. At that time, Hasan had passed through intensely and professionally learning motion graphics and later on filming and then directing, rather than relying on his own attained skills. He believes that his personality and ideology helped him a lot in placing the building block for his general work, where, for example, his knowledge in filming helps him identify how to edit the project later on. In addition to that, his communication with the director and his knowledge in directing eased the process of completing any film project. He uses his professionalism to respect the positions of his fellow teammates, especially with the director, since he is one as well, with improves the levels of communication between both sides. One notable skill he has is his photographic memory that he translates it inside his own film projects, where he created mental scenarios and images from contemplating sceneries in front of him, like people on a bus, in a café, and such. Hasan was able to apply these mental images in film, and his cinematographic skills and learnings helped him more in applying that into projects; for he believes that directing is a mental process and an ideational matter, and cinematography is bound by the imagination as well as it’s a science. After university, Hasan became a freelancer in 2015, working on several projects in the field, until he opened “Filmo” production house – his own company specialized in commercial and post-production – where he worked on over 50 adverts, most of which were directed and filmed by him, as well as 7 documentaries of his directing, over 15 short movies, one feature film called “Wlad al Nouwwab” (Sons of the parliament members) as a cinematographer, and 30 episodes of a series called “Hadeth Qalb” (Heart Incident). Hasan is constantly trying to evolve his general skills in the field, especially in cinematography, considering he’s one of the few persons who have specialized in that domain in Lebanon.
