Biography

Marcin's imagination and visual sensibility were born in Poland. All that was "tamed" into cinematographic vision in Chicago. And that’s where all started for him. Now he continues working in Los Angeles as cinematographer for narrative, commercials, music videos and for documentary where he continues involving his passion for visual storytelling. 

Marcin’s approach to visual storytelling is one influenced by the original meaning, mood and emotion of the story/script and not by a “cookie-cutter” handiness of what worked for others. He finds especial fulfillment in narrative films.

         Between Poland and USA, between the hiding shadows or revealing light, between lens’s touch and wide open amazed eye, between directorial vision and cinematographic excitement, he found his place….with the best view on life in motion pictures.
