- A TVC / photoshoot combo for the Environment and Climate Change Canada government ministry
- A TVC / photoshoot combo for Barilla pasta with the composer of the 'White Lotus' tv series.
- One awesome four-day photoshoot for a fashion client highlighting Montreal’s European vibe.
- One full segment of the 'Chrysalides' feature documentary filmed in the Lofoten, Senja and Tromso islands of Northern Norway.
And much more work that, unfortunately, our NDAs prevent us to share until their respective publications."

LifeDesign
Cape Town
Mentoring a young cameraman is a responsive action and part of paying it forward. As a natural mentor, director Linda Notelovitz hired young cameraman Canaan Friedman for his first professional role to shoot her latest campaign for Jaguar / Give Her A Crown.
“A lot of cinematography is intuition. It’s an art, not a formula.” – Reed Morano, director and cinematographer.
Linda used the campaign theme of 'Shifting Perspectives' as a visual metaphor. Believing in the importance of authenticity when working with brands on camera, she interpreted each fashion designer’s brand identity through a distinct expression of individuality. She conveyed their creativity, personal statements, and essence into each film’s narrative, resulting in five experimental fashion films focused on the message of female empowerment. Each film was unique but maintained the grace and oversight of the main client brands for the Give Her A Crown / Jaguar 2024 campaign.
“The DP must be in sync with the artist – responsive, finding a rhythm, and coaxing the camera into a dance with the artist to capture the most visceral experience. This is how we create footage that enables the viewer to feel deeply.” – Linda Notelovitz.
