OneFootball
During my role as Senior Video Producer for OneFootball, in late 2022 I had an amazing opportunity to travel with the Brand Team, Guilherme Foerster and Alessandro Costa for multiple OneFootball studio shoots, having an unforgettable journey visiting Munich, Madrid, Naples, and Rome.
It was an absolute pleasure to capture these moments on set with some of the world's top footballers. Despite a busy schedule, and my role as simply ‘BTS’, I clarified what I wanted to capture myself on set, and was very happy to see most of my footage in the final result.
These short edits are my own compilation of my footage captured in those days.

England
My edit of my favorite footage for the English FA at EURO 2024 GmbH was an incredible experience. I was tasked with capturing fans celebrating and showing their support for the Three Lions across the stadiums and cities of Germany.
Over the course of a busy month, I traveled between Düsseldorf, Gelsenkirchen, and Berlin, fully immersed in the electric football atmosphere. The experience embodied everything I love about my work—run-and-gun shooting, incredible vibes, and the unique energy that only football can create.
Being half-English and growing up in Hong Kong, I spent countless late nights watching England matches. Using my camera skills to support the team felt incredibly rewarding, as if I was contributing to the national effort in my own way.

Perspective
I had the opportunity of filming Union Berlin's Timo Baumgartl,
delving into his passion for photography, exclusively for onetwo magazine.
This project marked onetwo's video debut, setting the tone for the type of content they want to keep making - shining a spotlight on the diverse interests of footballers and athletes, revealing a side
of their personalities that fans rarely see.
Spending the day with @timo_baumgartl was a real treat. His warm and friendly hospitality made our walk around the industrial area of Oberschöneweide, @1.fcunion's original district before their move to Köpenick in the southeast of Berlin, such a pleasure.

Premier League Productions
Since 2022, Arsenal FC forward Bukayo Saka
has been supporting children’s medical charity BigShoe.
Bukayo helped fund 120 life-changing operations for children in the state of Kano, Nigeria. The children - and the doctor who performed many of the surgeries - have written to say thank you. In return, the Arsenal forward thanked the doctor who performed the life-changing operations.
The meeting with Dr Musa came suddenly, where we were asked to travel to Frankfurt to interview him in a spare moment he had during a conference. We were able to quickly produce an interview setup in a less than ideal hotel meeting room, but ultimately captured a nice result.

Sun Village
'Sun Village' is a home founded by ex-policewoman Zhang Shuqin near Beijing, China, for kids whose parents are in prison.
She saw the immense need for taking care of these children and travelled all over China to bring them together, so she could make sure they were cared for until their parents' sentences are over.
This documentary follows the lives of these children during their summer holidays and features interviews with children who grew up in the village, and those who are still at home there. It also looks at Zhang's incredible achievements in the past 20 years and her dedication to creating a better future for China.
