video production experience

since 2003

Founder & Director, Ambedo Media

I grew up immersed in media and the arts. My journey started in a home that housed Croatia’s first private radio station, where my family cultivated a deep appreciation for creative expression.

My father, a veteran in video production since 1987, and my mother, a dedicated editor and festival director, instilled in me a deep love for storytelling and the joy of capturing meaningful moments that connect with people.

By 2003, I was actively engaged in video production, and in 2019, I founded Ambedo Media—a company driven by the idea that every story deserves a unique and detailed approach.

Over the years, I’ve worked with institutions like the National and University Library in Zagreb, Croatian Radiotelevision, The University of Zagreb School of Medicine, Unison – the Croatian Music Alliance, and SOIH – The Croatian Union of Associations of Persons with Disabilities, among others.

In 2023, my work on the documentary Vox Humana - a film about the restoration of historic organs on the island of Vis and their cultural significance - earned me the Best Director award at the first Tourism and Ethno Film Festival (TEF) in Krk, Croatia.

Tom is an outstanding editor. Not only does he edit on a practical level, very efficiently, but it is his attention to detail and person-ability that makes him such a valued part of our extended team. Often working on tight timelines and thinking of ways to improve our work - if you are looking for a great addition to your work - I highly recommend Tom.

Already after the first collaboration with Tom Felbar, realized in 2018, it was clear that he is a professional with an incredible sense for people, framing, aesthetics, and dynamics. A brief talk with him was enough preparation for his independent filming of conferences in Croatia and abroad, as well as promotional and documentary films. When working with Tom, I feel calm and relaxed, fully focused on my part of the job, trusting in his knowledge, skills, and responsible approach to work. I simply know that he will do his best because he pours emotion into everything he does, and that makes a big difference. Tom is a professional for whom his work is also a calling.

SENIOR PUBLIC RELATIONS ADVISOR AT THE NATIONAL AND UNIVERSITY LIBRARY IN ZAGREB

With Ambedo Media, we last collaborated on the 2nd International Conference on Green Libraries "Let’s Go Green!" held at the National and University Library in Zagreb. It was very important for us to capture the atmosphere of the conference for its financiers, the media, and the broader public interested in the conference's topic, so we engaged Ambedo Media to create a promotional video about it. Having worked with them before, we knew they would do an excellent job, and we weren’t wrong. In addition to the excellent product, it’s worth highlighting the fantastic communication with Mr. Felbar during the production of the video. His calm demeanor, aesthetic awareness, and above all, professionalism are qualities worthy of admiration, and we would wholeheartedly recommend him for any collaboration. We certainly plan to continue working with him on future projects.

My business collaboration with Tom Felbar began even before he founded Ambedo Media when we collaborated on the "Dani Milka Kelemena" Festival in Slatina. His sense of visualizing music was crucial for the continuation of our now longstanding collaboration, including filming, live streaming of national and international music competitions, and editing musical portraits of young artists. The latest collaboration was on the documentary film about the restoration of historical organs on the island of Vis - "Vox Humana," for which he also won an award for directing.

My business collaboration with Tomislav Felbar began in 2017 on the segment "Jezik na vagi" as part of the show "Kod nas doma" . Since the collaboration continued for the next 7 seasons, it speaks volumes about his professional approach to work and the quality of the segments. Before filming each segment, a plan was developed with scriptwriter, Davor Stanković. Felbar would then enhance the segment with his interesting interventions as a cameraman and director, and finally, in editing, it would gain its finishing touch. Another talent of Felbar's, acting, should not be overlooked. Together with his brother and author, Davor Stanković, he acted in sketches on the topic of rhetoric, humorously bringing this educational theme closer to the viewers. Collaboration with Tomislav Felbar comes highly recommended because you will get everything you imagined and even enriched with his creativity.

We at Creativa particularly enjoy collaborating with Ambedo Media and Tom Felbar - probably because we easily find ourselves on the same 'creative wavelength'. We celebrated Creativa's 25 years of work, and without hesitation, we contracted Ambedo Media to capture the celebration by filming and creating video memories and posts for our social media channels. Additionally, we have collaborated to create a series of educational and promotional videos about our services, and Tom has always amazed us with his solutions. Whether he found a unique angle for filming, added a new dose of playfulness, or simply understood our needs right away. The filming process itself is extremely enjoyable and always exceptionally professional!

PLANET ART THEATER

The collaboration with Tomislav Felbar for Planet Art Theatre began in 2017 when he took over the creation and production of video materials for all of the theater's productions. Satisfied with this collaboration, we invited Mr. Felbar to join us as the main cameraman, co-screenwriter, and editor in the pioneering project "Online Live Theatre," through which we streamed our performances in real-time during the pandemic and lockdown. Collaboration with Tom Felbar and others from Ambedo Media in all projects has been creative, high-quality, pleasant, and timely, and we certainly look forward to further collaboration in upcoming projects.

The collaboration with Tom and the team from Ambedo Media on the production of our promotional video was a true pleasure. We were impressed by their knowledge, creativity, and professionalism. They did a masterful job!
