I´ve known Daniel for over 5 years an have booked him as a director for a few commercials and for many online campaigns.
He usually comes up with better ideas and concepts then I first had in mind and I really enjoy working together with him.
He always follows through on what he says he will do and goes above and beyond all expectations.
