Cameron Currin
I'm Cam
I spent 20 years in the U.S. Coast Guard before I put that same discipline into filmmaking. Today I direct and edit short films and music videos, and make video for small businesses.
My short films have won 12 festival awards and picked up 6 nominations in the U.S., Singapore and Italy. Elevator won Best Film, Best Directing and Best Editing at the 2025 Hampton Roads 48 Hour Film Project.
I'm also an FAA Part 107 certified drone pilot, and I own a full camera, lighting and grip package. I'm starting a new interview series with short filmmakers from around the world, because I learn the most from hearing how other people get their films made.

Good to know
Based in Chesapeake, Virginia. I work across Hampton Roads and Virginia, and travel along the East Coast for the right project.
Yes. I cut and color in DaVinci Resolve, or I can hand footage to your editor.
Through a private delivery page where you review the cut, leave notes, approve it and download everything.
Yes. The lighting and grip package rents through ShareGrid with pickup in Chesapeake.
It depends on the crew, days and deliverables. After a short call I send a clear quote.
