My name is Patricia Pahinag, and I am a freelance Director of Photographer,  Editor, Assistant Camera, and Videographer, currently based in Portland, OR. I received my Bachelor's degree in Film and a minor in Theater Arts at Portland State University!

My experience as a filmmaker encapsulates a variety of media ranging from independent narrative films, branded media, sports, documentaries, music videos, and more. I've had the privilege to work on projects with clients such as Nike, Travel Oregon, PDX Next, Intel, Amazon, and Tracklnd. I have also held multiple roles in event management, theater, marketing/advertising, and AV services, that have aided in my creative process.
 
My DP debut, Don't Trip (2023), won 1st place in Portland State University's 2023 Film Showcase. Since then, I have gone on to DP several projects, as well as venture out into the world of post production, and am currently working as the Content Services Resident at Wieden + Kennedy and a freelance videographer for the Portland Trail Blazers. I just wrapped up my work on "Almost Boston" as the DP and Editor that is set to make its festival debut soon, am currently editing a proof of concept for an upcoming feature.

I admire the way in which the moving picture allows viewers to gain a new perspective on life through each visual, and believe that every shot and cut should have intention and story. I find joy in the challenge of creating and stitching images that enhances these experiences and elevate its connection with the audience. 

If I'm not holding a camera or editing on my desk, you can catch me cooking, gardening, traveling, playing with my cats, or picking up new hobbies. Feel free to reach out if you would like to collaborate or get to know me more!
