From the time of leaving film school FAMU he collaborated mostly with his Slovak compatriots, film directs Elo Havetta (Forecast: Zero /Předpověď: nula/, 1966), Juraj Jakubisko (Crucial Years /Kristove roky/,1967) and Ivan Balaďa (The Lady /Dáma/, 1967). A dynamic hand-held camera and the use of realistic lighting became a part of his intuitive creative style, on account of which he would be soon sought after even in emigration after August 1968. He has made almost a hundred films for movie theatres and television, amongst others, with artists such as Volker Schlöndorff (The Tin Drum,1979) or Andrzej Wajda (Danton, 1982).
