director/producer

As Head of Production at The Cavalry, Dirk is a versatile creative force, equally at home directing a vision or shaping it in the edit suite. His deep-seated love for storytelling influences everything he does, bringing a level of heart and enthusiasm to his projects that’s rivaled only by his off-screen role as a proud husband and girl-dad.
Thriving on the energy of a good challenge, Dirk approaches production with both a sharp creative eye and a pragmatic mindset. He's great at untangling complex logistics, and always tries to ensure that the journey from concept to content feels seamless and stress-free for his clients.
