Daniel Choy Boyar
Gaffer
Daniel Choy Boyar is a native New Yorker who started his entertainment career on the theatre tech crew of Stuyvesant High School in Manhattan. After graduating in 2006 from the University of Rochester he quickly found his niche in the grip and electric departments of independent films in the New York region. As he worked his way up to Gaffer, Daniel has lit dozens of productions ranging from features to music videos. He enjoys the challenge of working on location, hiding lights in tight corners, inside dashboards, off rooftop ledges and outside windows, while making the shot look natural, beautiful, and fitting to the Director's vision.
