Hi! My Name Is Alireza Hodayibozorgi, But Everyone Calls Me Ali!
I am a director of photography and a colorist with a diverse portfolio and a keen eye for detail and a great passion for storytelling. I have worked on a wide range of projects, including commercials, music videos, TV shows, documentaries, short narratives, and feature films. Either working on location with a crew or color grading remotely, I am confident in my ability to adapt to any situation to produce high-quality artistic work.
My experience in both cinematography and color grading has given me a strong eye, a confident approach, and a creative vision. I am passionate about my craft and enjoy collaborating with new artists, challenging myself creatively, and embarking on new adventures.
Here are a few specific examples of my work:
I was the DP for the award-winning feature film "Golden Time" (2017). The film was praised for its unique cinematography (all shot during the golden hour in about 2 years) and its haunting story.
I was the Senior Colorist for the TV show "Blue Whale" (2019). The show is known for its stunning cinematography, and I was proud to be a part of the team that brought it to life.
I recently served as both the Director of Photography and Colorist for "A Hopeful Letter" (2023), a commercial video produced for LKLaw firm in BC, in partnership with Agency Media from Langley. Our collaboration earned us the Gold Award at the Muse Creative Advertising Festival, a testament to our commitment to impactful and innovative storytelling.
I am always looking for new challenges and eager to collaborate with new artists. If you are looking for a dp or colorist who can help you bring your vision to life, I would love to learn more about it!
Based in the charming city of Abbotsford in Fraser Valley, British Columbia, I am well-positioned to take on projects across the Greater Vancouver area and beyond. I'm not only open to travel for specific projects but also offer remote color grading services globally. Wherever you are in the world, I'm ready to bring my skills and expertise to you.
