Samuel Ellis

I am a Wildlife Cinematographer with Narrative foundation and a passion for capturing great light. In 2011, I became a certified cinematographer after studying at Capilano University in North Vancouver, BC. I received extensive training under C.S.C cinematographers, Ross Kelsay, and Danny Nowak. In 2012, I camera assisted for CBC & BBC’s award winning Natural History series Wild Canada and was the camera trainee on the feature film, Suddenly, starring Ray Liotta & Dominic Purcell. Last year I was the Principle Cinematographer for FranceTV5’s feature Polar Bear documentary, L’OURS POLAIRE APRES L’EDEN. I am currently a cinematographer for the CBC, Nature of Things series, Wild Canadian Year, as well as the CBC series Aging in the WIld.
