About us

The faces on this page belong to people who let us come close: to listen to them, to get to know them and to tell their story.

We have worked with very different people. Managers and employees, doctors and patients, activists and politicians, athletes, chefs, winemakers, children. Each with their own world and something to say.

Over time, we have learned that our work begins before we turn the camera on. It begins with listening, with trust and with the patience to understand the person in front of us.

We are a team of directors, camera operators, sound recordists and editors. We make films for companies, brands and causes. But above all, we work with people who trust us with their stories.

270+video productions delivered
100+live broadcasts
300+people have told their story in front of our camera

What we do

Five kinds of projects. The same care for people.

What the people we worked with say

In their words

“What impressed me in collaboration with the Black Hat team was, besides their professionalism, that they knew how to listen, to understand and to be part of our team.”

Andreea Mihnea · HR Manager, EY Romania

“I felt they really understood the things I go through and that made me confident to let them share my delicate story with everybody.”

Loredana Cernușcă · Character in the documentary Life with Multiple Sclerosis

“They did not limit themselves to the content of the videos, but went further than that and put themselves in the shoes of the wheelchair users from the films, to better understand what this is about.”

Erika Garnier · Programme Coordinator, Motivation Romania Foundation

“I can recommend Black Hat to any overseas company who might wish to hire a video crew in Romania for news or documentary purposes.”

Lynn Ferguson · Director, Contemporary TV, UK
