Check FAQAbout Linus
Linus Manchester is a documentary filmmaker with a passion for stories that bridge gaps. I'm a DP and Editor based in Washington DC whose work has covered topics ranging from environmental protection to social justice. I tell stories in an effort to bring people together. In my branded work, I apply the principles of documentary storytelling to build authenticity and establish trust. I work with individuals and brands to elevate their message and reach larger audiences. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from American University's School of Communication in 2023 with a dual degree in Film and German Studies. I'm lucky to continue exploring my interests as a filmmaker, both by deepening my technical skills in the craft and broadening my understanding of the world and the issues I care about. My favorite projects are the ones that ignite my curiosity and inspire me to apply my skills to meaningful work. I've had the privilege of working in roles ranging from Production Assistant through DP on such projects and continue to search for opportunities to contribute in whatever capacity I can. Notable clients include YouTube, Food Network, Semafor, and various government agencies. Across all my work, I'm driven by my passion for storytelling and my belief in the power of video to create change. ****
