Arina Bleiman

I am a cinematographer, director, professor, camera operator, and video production professional with over 12 years of experience in the full-cycle film industry. Based in Los Angeles and originally from Russia, I draw inspiration from growing up in Post-Soviet Saint Petersburg and living in Miami. My passion lies in telling stories that empower and expand social consciousness on a global level.

I have executed over 250 projects, including campaigns for brands like PUMA, NETFLIX, and ADOBE, music videos for COMMON and ACTION BRONSON, and commercials for DIOR, VOGUE, PEPSI, GOOGLE, and DODGE. I have also worked on the gender-bending comedy short "FEMME" produced by Rachel Brosnahan and as second unit on HULU's "In and Of Itself." My work has garnered over 20 million views.

I am available for DP and directing work on a variety of projects, including music videos, feature and short narrative films, commercials, documentaries, dance, fashion, branded and corporate videos, live events, YouTube, social media videos, and more. I am based in Los Angeles but frequently travel to New York, Miami, and San Francisco. I am available for travel both domestically and internationally.

I possess a variety of skills, including cinematography, camera operation, directing, and editing using software such as Adobe Premiere, Final Cut, and Davinci Resolve. I am knowledgeable in a range of professional cameras and lighting equipment and own a full production equipment package. References are available upon request.
