About me
I'm Miro Mennel, a camera, Steadicam and Trinity operator. Born in 1996, I am based between Lugano and Zurich, working internationally.
I studied filmmaking at the Conservatorio Internazionale di Scienze Audiovisive (CISA) in Locarno from 2015 to 2018. After several years working as a 2nd Camera Assistant, I transitioned into operating, initially focusing on documentaries and television.
In 2021, I completed the Tiffen Steadicam Gold Workshop in Tenerife, a key step in shaping my approach as a Steadicam operator. Since then, I have worked across feature films, TV series, commercials, documentaries and music videos, collaborating with directors and cinematographers on both national and international productions.
I am a native Italian and German speaker, and fluent in English.
