VISUAL DESIGNER

I’m Kalynda N. Haaf, and under the name HAAFVISUAL

From video productions (promotional videos, mini-documentaries, events) and photography to animation and graphic design — I bring your message to life visually.

Every budget deserves quality.

When developing projects, I pay attention not only to the details but also to the bigger picture.

Purpose, Story, Branding & Marketability.

My Approach

During a personal consultation we’ll discuss your goals, story, target audience, timeline, and budget.

I turn your idea into a plan that makes an impact.

Production & Design
From camera to post-production — from sketch to print.

FAQ

  • What and who is HaafVisual?

     HAAFVISUAL  

    Under this name I, Kalynda N. Haaf, provide visual services as a freelancer.

  • Where is HaafVisual located?

    My base is in Schiedam and Deest (no physical office). Starting in 2026, I’ll be permanently based in Deest.


    However, I’m available for projects throughout the Netherlands and beyond.

  • How do I purchase a service?

    PREPARATION


    During an initial meeting, we clearly define your wishes, expectations, and project framework — including key details such as filming days, measurements, or delivery timelines.


    QUOTE


    Based on all necessary information, a detailed quote will be prepared.


    GETTING STARTED


    Once the quote is approved, I’ll begin working on your project.

    Some elements may require advance payment, but generally, we get started right away.

    After approval of the final product, you’ll receive the final invoice.

  • My product is not listed, what now?

    Writing out all of HAAFVISUAL’s services would take up too much space, so feel free to ask what’s possible — and at what cost.


    EXCLUSIONS

    A few services are excluded:

    Printing is always handled externally.

    There is no in-house studio for photoshoots.

    Voice-overs are also outsourced.

    All working hours are invoiced — including time o

  • Film/photo: What if I need more hours?

    All working hours are invoiced — including any hours outside the original quote.


    Example:

    If an event runs longer than planned and something occurs that was previously agreed to be recorded, overtime will be applied automatically without prior notice.

    If no important moments are happening, the on-site contact person will decide whether additional recording is necessary.


    Edits and retouching adjustments are always billed separately.


    The same applies to additional videos — all hours and content are charged accordingly.

  • Is there a studio and/or office available?

    No. Studios can be rented from external companies. Meetings take place in a cafe, at your location or via teams/zoom/skype.

  • Will I see interim versions?

    Yes. With graphic work you always receive a sketch and interim versions first. With videos you receive intermediate versions, often without music, color correction and the likes. And for photos, you will receive rough versions of the first selection including a watermark.

  • How do I receive my product?

    Wetransfer. Simple and direct.

  • Who retains ownership?

    BEFORE PAYMENT


    Before payment, the product remains the property of HAAFVISUAL at all times.

    Usage rights can be granted upon payment.


    AFTER PAYMENT


    After completion and payment for the service, the product becomes your property.

    However, HAAFVISUAL retains the right to display the work on this website and other portfolio platforms — unless otherwise stated in the contract.

  • I want to cancel a service, is that possible?

    YES. You can cancel at any time.


    BEFORE PRODUCTION

    If a project is canceled before production begins, no cancellation fee will be charged — unless expenses have already been made (such as travel costs, location or equipment rental, external assistance, or purchases).

    These costs will still be invoiced.


    DURING PRODUCTION

    If cancellation occurs during production, all costs incurred up to that point will be charged.

  • How do I pay?

    PAYMENT

    Large payments must always be made by bank transfer.


    Smaller payments — for example, for graphic design work — can be paid via a payment link.


    PRIVATE CLIENTS

    If you fall into this category, a 30% deposit of the estimated total cost is required.

    The remaining balance will be invoiced after completion.

    Payment is due within 7 days.

    Once payment is received, you will receive the final, watermark-free versions of your products.


    FREELANCERS & SELF-EMPLOYED PROFESSIONALS

    If you fall into this category, you have 14 days to complete payment.


    SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED BUSINESSES (SMEs) & LARGE COMPANIES

    If you fall into this category, you have 30 days to complete payment.


    PAYMENT TERMS LONGER THAN 30 DAYS

    If you require a payment term longer than 30 days, administrative fees will apply.


    INSTALLMENT PAYMENTS

    Payment in installments is possible.

    Please inquire about the specific terms and additional costs, as these vary per service and client.


    CODES

    If your invoice requires specific reference or project codes, these must be provided in advance.

From an early age, it was clear that the creative sector would be my future. I have therefore dedicated myself to gaining as much knowledge and experience as possible in this field. As a child, I created illustrations (both physical and digital), wrote scripts, and filmed them with my toys. I also attended art classes at the Stedelijk Museum Schiedam, which led me to enroll at the Kunstlyceum at Willem de Kooning during my secondary school years. I graduated Cum Laude in CKV (arts), gaining additional experience in filmmaking. After completing VWO, I took a documentary course at SKVR, where I had the opportunity to interview the Mayor of Rotterdam, further confirming my path in video as my main focus.

I went on to study Audiovisual Design (Film) at the Willem de Kooning Academy. There, in addition to film, I trained in sculpting, illustration, animation, photography, and website design. I completed my studies with an internship at Sanoma Media (Nu.nl, REVU, Cosmopolitan, AutoWeek, etc.), where I covered red carpet events, fashion shoots, short reports, and commercial productions.
With a Bachelor’s degree in Audiovisual Design and various specialized courses in video, graphic design, illustration, and web design, I gained extensive knowledge and hands-on experience during my studies.

Since then, I have been active in the industry for over 10 years, producing commercials, documentaries, reports, campaigns, and more. I have also conducted workshops in video production, editing, painting, drawing, and other creative skills at libraries, community centers, and vocational schools.

But my learning didn’t stop there. I have completed advanced courses in Chinese painting, Korean watercolor, Korean glazing techniques, pigment painting, sustainable filmmaking, interview skills, writing for video, drone flying (non-certified), and many other areas.
