MALKAH OSTROFF DIRECTOR
I have worked in the Entertainment Industry for 12 years, filming, directing, organizing photo shoots, red carpets, travel for celebrity clients, conducting interviews, and working for national broadcast channels as a news journalist and photographer.
I enjoy sharing and seeing my clients look proud and happy on set and in the air. The most important thing to me about filmmaking is making happy memories, enjoying life, and having the opportunity to share stories that will change people's lives forever.
