Ambassador Spotlight:
Alen Tkalčec
Filmmaker & Videographer
“With Omnicharge we can keep going and keep filming no matter what.“
Meet Alen Tkalčec, an Emmy award-winning filmmaker and visionary videographer from Croatia. He’s best known for captivating audiences with his stunning visual narratives in documentary form. As the proud founder and owner of Mesmerized, a Croatian video production company, he has a portfolio that spans continents, featuring compelling work in tourism films and TV shows.
Today, we are thrilled to welcome him as a brand ambassador for Omnicharge.
His Passion and Early Career
Alen’s journey began early in his adolescence with a passion for capturing unique moments on film. His persistent efforts, starting with a simple point-and-shoot camera, allowed him to gradually perfect his craft. He’s worked with National Geographic, Samsung, and Adidas as well as numerous tourism companies around the world, including Royal Balloon Cappadocia, I Feel Slovenia, WOW Hungary, and Suzhou Tourism.
One of his career-defining moments was the creation of an award-winning tourism film about a small town in Croatia. This work caught the attention of a US journalist, who then opened the door for Alen to shoot a documentary in China. This successful venture allowed him to quit his day job in pursuit of his passion on an entrepreneurial path.
Alen's ability to tell mesmerizing stories with his lens has since led him to win multiple international awards and recognition. His film, The Real Egypt, was CIFFT's 4th-best tourism film in the world in 2022.
The Challenges of Filming in Remote Locations
Despite his track record of remarkable achievements, Alen remains a humble and dedicated film creator at heart.
With his perfectionist spirit, he's always striving to refine his skills, scrutinize the quality of the work he puts out, and push the boundaries of what’s possible in visual storytelling.
His passion and love for his craft inspire us to do better at Omnicharge.
As a global traveler, Alen relies on a simplified kit consisting of his camera, gimbal, and drone. When he travels to remote areas of the world, like the desert of Djanet, Algeria, he needs a reliable and versatile power solution.
This is why the Omni 20+ is an indispensable part of Alen's gear, allowing him to keep all his equipment and devices fully charged even in remote locations without reliable access to electricity.
Staying Powered Up with Omnicharge
The Omni 20+’s 100W output, pass-through power, and wireless charging capabilities have proven invaluable for Alen’s work. Whether he's hiking for the perfect drone shot or shooting a night-long time-lapse, Omnicharge ensures that he never misses a moment due to power constraints. Furthermore, with its ability to tap into different power sources, from car inverters while driving across the Sahara desert to weak solar outputs in Mongolia, the Omni 20+ has truly revolutionized Alen's approach to remote filmmaking.
Alen’s meticulous planning, combined with Omnicharge’s innovative and reliable technology, means that he never once experienced the panic of running out of power during a shoot. His experience perfectly embodies the Omnicharge mission: to empower creators and explorers with reliable, versatile, and robust power solutions.
We're honored to have Alen Tkalčec join the Omnicharge family. His relentless pursuit of excellence, visionary storytelling, and globe-trotting adventures make him a perfect ambassador for our brand. We're excited to accompany him on his future journeys and to continue powering his incredible work.
