Teaching the world to make films, since 2014.

Mission

Breaking into filmmaking has never been easy. Since 2014, Cinecom's mission is to make it accessible: teaching the world filmmaking, video editing and visual effects. Anyone can become a professional video creator, and sharing the tips and tricks that get you there is what I love most.

    Edutainment

    Learning should be fun. The best lessons start with a laugh.

    Out of the box

    Every video tells a story that hasn't been told before.

    Up to date

    Filmmaking keeps changing, so I keep learning: new software, new tech and new trends, every day.

    Class of 2012

    I graduated from LUCA School of Arts, the film school in Brussels, and started out as a freelancer right away. One of my clients was Envato, where I made online courses about filmmaking and video editing.

    Cinecom is born

    Renting some space to get started
    Renting some space to get started

    On 20 March 2014 I founded Cinecom Belgium BV, to make educational content for filmmakers and video editors around the world. Getting known came first, so I put my time into growing a YouTube channel.

    The first hire

    The channel kept growing, and I could hire my first full-time employee. Yannick Theunissen joined the team, and later became a familiar face in front of the camera too.

    A hall of our own

    Things moved fast. By the summer we were able to get our own industrial hall, with space that opened up new possibilities for our videos. It was empty and cold, so over the next months we built an office inside.

    The hall started to look like a film studio, and the finished editing room gave us a much better place to work. Lorenzo Menz joined the crew that summer. We ended the year with a big celebration: the YouTube channel reached 1 million subscribers.

    Lights and a second channel

    The studio got a professional lighting system and a new workshop. That summer we started our second YouTube channel, Premiere Basics, all about Adobe Premiere Pro.

    Through the pandemic

    The pandemic didn't make things easy. Timo Vandiest had just joined the crew, and working from home was not an option for a studio. Luckily the rules in Belgium let us keep working, in a workplace adapted to the situation.

    The online boom

    People spent more time online than ever, and that gave us a great boost. Both channels grew fast, more and more students took our courses, and Tymon Reynders joined the crew.

    Short form, new reach

    Opening a second studio space
    Opening a second studio space

    Short-form video took off, and we jumped on it to stay relevant. We passed 60 million views in 2022 alone and reached whole new audiences. Near the end of the year we got a second studio building to grow further.

    A heavy year

    A heavy year

    We kept growing, but it was a heavy year. We were robbed, and the pressure from the industry kept building. I spent my days on administration and missed the creative side, so I decided to stop. At the end of the year, the crew went their own ways.

    Going solo

    I carried on alone, on a smaller scale, with the same mission as in 2014: teaching the world to make videos.
