Biographycinematographer / camera operator

Levente Tóth is a Hungarian cinematographer. He was educated, in later academic life, by such teachers as András Nagy HSC, Elemér Ragályi HSC, Máté Herbai HSC and Szabolcs Hajdu.

It was during this academic period that, within a class of cinematographer undergraduates, he shot the movie It‘s not the time of my life, directed by Szabolcs Hajdu. This movie went on to win the Grand Prix at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in 2016.

Levente has himself produced a number of short films and has been employed to work in feature films as either a camera operator or a 2nd unit cinematographer. He has also worked for internationally renowned companies, including the Technical Oscar-winning Colorfront, who have been recognised with the Scientific and Engineering Award.

In 2023 he won the Best Cinematography award at the Hungarian Film Critics Awards for the feature film Heights and Depths. In 2025, he was also elected as a member of the Hungarian Society of Cinematographers (HCA).
