POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

#QuanLuong, #AssociateMemberCSC @quanluong_  Hey there, I’m Quan, a Vietnamese Canadian DP based in Winnipeg, MB and associate member of the CSC. I moved to Canada almost 10 years ago as an engineering student after a fortune teller told my mom that I would either be fixing cars, teaching or working in film behind the camera. Even though the engineering pathway ended after 3 months, I was able to change major to film studies and started pursuing a career in film, as per the prophecy.  I didn’t grow up watching movies and knew I had to catch up so the day I switched major, I put on the only “art” film I knew, The Godfather. A few weeks later, I saw La La Land and knew I wanted to be a cinematographer, perhaps it was how the film made me feel, having had just left a high school relationship behind to move across the world.  While going to university, I started out working at a small corporate production company, and shooting music videos on the side. Then in my 3rd year, I started working at @farpointfilms as a colourist, and slowly made my way on to their sets as an AC, Lighting Technician, camera operator, and eventually DP before becoming a freelancer.  Over the last decade, I’ve been able to grow my film career by learning from local mentors like @mrkshenkel and @bradfilm, as well as through the CSC mentorship program with @mayabankovic @guygodfree and @matjbarkley .  Thank you Carolyn for this great honour to host as I’ve been part of the CSC as a student member, affiliate member, now associate member and hopefully full member one day. This community has truly expanded my horizons and has changed my career in many ways.
