CURRICULUM VITAE

GREGORY A. KUNG CINEMATOGRAPHER

CAREER SUMMARY

I began my career as a camera trainee at SBS, ’s first multicultural broadcaster in 1985. There my love of story was nurtured and I developed my craft, travelling the globe working on a collection of new and diverse programming.

In 1995 and 1996 I lived in Greece where I worked on documentaries and an internationally crewed feature film.

On my return to Sydney in 1997 I started as a freelance cameraman, which continues today. With a body of work that spans three decades, I have embraced storytelling across genre’s working in documentary, doco-drama, short film, reality, lifestyle and cooking.

I enjoy collaborating on set and on the road. I am very passionate about the storytelling process.

I feel my strength as a (lighting) cameraman is in my ability to listen and follow the story visually. This is particularly important in observational, documentary and reality television.

In recent years I have developed as a DOP (Director Of Photography), working with full drama crews. I believe this has enhanced my lighting and camera skills, and pushed me further creatively in the way I approach new projects.

I live in Sydney Australia, but love to travel and have done for much of my work.

Following is a brief – and very condensed - history of my work to date. Please note that I have not included shows where I have come in only for a day to shoot.

I am, either the DOP, full time camera or regular contributor.
