Rollo van Wijk
Cinematographer
I’m Rollo van Wijk. I was born in 2000 and grew up in and around Amsterdam. It was here, cycling across the polders and through the city streets, that I discovered my love of light. I explored this fascination first through drawing and photography, but soon realised I could use images to tell stories and started making short films for myself and others at an early age. Transforming a story into images is still what I enjoy doing most.
After high school I spent a year at the European Film College in Denmark developing my skills and building up a network of talented people across the world. I am currently deepening my knowledge and experience of filmmaking at the Dutch Film Academy in Amsterdam.
Over the past five years I have made short films, documentaries and commercials and assisted on a range of different sets. I am always keen to get involved in new projects.
