SCRIPT. SHOOT. EDIT. REPEAT
Hey I’m Blake, a creative producer and filmmaker based in Zürich. Raised in Seattle, shaped in East Africa, now crafting visuals in Switzerland. I founded Blaked Visuals after several years of running a film studio in Nairobi. These days, I split my time between directing fresh work for clients and serving as Senior Producer and Co-Lead Creative at Yoveo AG, a creative video production company.
I cook up commercials, craft concepts, and occasionally wrangle short films into existence. Cinephile. Word nerd. Camera whisperer.
If you’re looking for something with brains and bite, you know where to find me.
