Virgil Coco

I’m a Gaffer and Grip based in Curaçao, with hands-on experience across film, commercial, and branded productions. As the founder of Illumination Curaçao, I specialize in shaping light and supporting camera movement to bring creative visions to life on set.

Over the years, I’ve collaborated with a range of production companies and creatives, including Pelikula Studios International, NSR Arts, John El Gayo, Shots by AJ, JR Motions, and Poinciana Productions. My work spans both local and international projects, where I focus on delivering high-quality lighting setups and reliable grip support under fast-paced production conditions.

I’ve also contributed as a Grip on commercial productions for brands such as Hunkemöller, Saks Fifth Avenue, Nine West, and the Netherlands Army.

My film credits include projects like Killa Bees, Tula Museum Movies, Y Mi Mama, Toy Soldier, Sin Nombre, and Perdí.

I’m passionate about storytelling through lighting and always aim to elevate each production with precision, teamwork, and creativity.
