SCRIPT. SHOOT. EDIT. REPEAT
I’m Blake, video producer and filmmaker based in Zürich, Switzerland. Originally, I grew up in Seattle, WA and later lived and worked in East Africa for several years, where myself and my partner still operate a film studio Himiza Narratives in Nairobi, Kenya. In 2018 I found my way to Switzerland where I started my new studio, Blaked Visuals, as well as worked for several others. I’m currently a Senior Producer for Yoveo AG.
My office is located in Zürich. I’m also one of the founders of the film collective 9NIGHTS. My current focus is on creating concepts and commercials for brands and writing/producing short films. I’m a cinephile at heart, and always love a good story.
If you like what I do, don’t hesitate to reach out.
