Hi! My name is Victor Grigas. I'm a video producer, photographer and former employee of the Wikimedia Foundation. I have been a contributor to Wikipedia since 2005. I have a formal education in film, audio and video and am interested in all things open source and public domain. The best way to reach me is by email at victorgrigas (at) gmail (dot) com
Photo CC by-SA 2.0 by Sage Ross
My photos have been seen in Vice, The New York Times, The Washington Post, Forbes, Macworld, The New Republic, Science, Fast Company, Psychology Today, CBS, the New York Review of Books, Atlas Obscura, WTTW / Chicago Tonight, PBS NewsHour, Piauí, Wikimedia and many others.
I took this photo in the 'War Room' of the Wikimedia Foundation during the 2012 blackout of Wikipedia in protest of proposed SOPA legislation.
My father was also a photographer -- I guess the acorn didn't fall far from the oak. When he passed away in 2017, I started a fundraiser to digitize his entire photo archive. One thing I learned from him was a joy in capturing people on camera. A lot of people hate how they look, and if you can make them comfortable, then you can get them in a good look and you can get a good portrait that will give them a positive sense of who they are.
I've worked with all kinds of budgets for my video productions. If you have a project in mind feel free to reach out to me to ask any questions: victorgrigas (at) gmail (dot) com.
This is the oculus in the Pantheon in Rome. I wanted to show the whole room.
I take a particular joy in illustrating Wikipedia articles with photos or video. Because Wikipedia is open source, it can be endlessly copied, which gives it great resilience against being deleted or otherwise lost.
Here's my B&H wish list, and Paypal.
