Jakub Chlouba
Hey there, I’m Jakub, a documentary filmmaker, cinematographer, and explorer based in South East Asia.
I create films in some of the world’s most remote and beautiful places, using natural light and a minimal setup to tell cinematic, human-centered stories. This channel is where I share what I’ve learned—about filmmaking, cinematography, and how to shoot with intention, even in wild, unpredictable environments.
If you’re a filmmaker who wants to master natural light, simplify your setup, and tell powerful stories with depth and impact, you’re in the right place.
