Steve Ellington
Video and imaging techniques instructor
A professional filmmaker and photographer, Steve has always had a love for photographic media. That love led him to the Brooks Institute of Photography (Santa Barbara, California) where he received a degree in Film and Video Production. He was responsible for the Motion Graphics on the Academy Award winning documentary “Mighty Times: The Children’s March” (2004). Steve has worked on a number of film and photography projects in the U.S.A., and, most recently, in Switzerland where he has lived since 2007. His independent documentary, “H.R. Giger’s Sanctuary” (2007) has been featured in film festivals around the world. In 2008, Steve completed production on the documentary film, “Legacy of the Great Aletsch” which will be playing in film festivals worldwide.
