Radu Tancău
Cinematographer | Producer | Director
For as long as I can remember, I’ve always been fascinated with the shape of things, which would explain why my way into Cinematography has been through earlier studies in Sculpture and Ceramics, as well as an academic stint in Photography. As an alumnus of the prestigious Romanian film school, I’ve lensed a handful of award-winning short films and put in my apprentice hours shooting music videos and commercials and even moonlighting as a visual artist. After working on productions in Spain, Germany, and Macedonia, I decided I needed to scratch the twenty-something-young-man-goes-to-India resolution off my bucket list, so I ended up working on two Bollywood features. I’m based in Bucharest next to an awesome Chinese restaurant, but I’m open to worldwide collaborations.
