My name is Rogier Smalhout. Most people call me 'de Reiger', which means heron in Dutch.
I'm a director, creative, writer and founder of Appelsap Festival, Amsterdam's renowned Hiphop platform.
My (visual) language reflects my passion for music, art, film, fashion and street culture. Whether directing film, creating an ad campaign or programming music, I particularly love to connect the right people to the projects I take on.
