Erik Vallsten

Erik found his interest in filmmaking as a 10-year-old when he saw a documentary by Gunnar Källström, a recognized documentary filmmaker who later became his supervisor and mentor during his studies in Cinematography at Dramatiska Institutet in Stockholm. Since graduating in 2006 he has shot a variety of documentaries as well as drama.

Erik has an incredible ability to capture the feeling of intimacy and closeness and
manages to create a trust between camera and object; he finds the story through the lens. In addition to being incredibly strong on the handheld, he also operates steadicam.
