About Luis
My name is Luis Carballo. In 1997 I started my professional career in journalism. At that moment began an adventure that took me around the world. Thanks to my work on an international television network, I was able to cover events such as the earthquake in Haiti in 2010, the Egyptian revolution in 2011, the wars between Israel and Hamas, the visit of Pope Francis to Holy Land and the funerals of Ariel Sharon and Hugo Chavez. Afterwards, in 2015, my report in Nigeria on Boko Haram was selected for the Emmy Awards. 

For years I have worked in front of the camera as a reporter, presenter and interviewer, but also a lot behind it, because I have been producing reports and documentaries on a free-lance basis for a long time. In addition, in January 2018 I co-founded the video production company Imagène Productions in France. I do all kinds of video production, journalistic or commercial, for a wide range of clients: media, institutions, NGO and companies. Besides, I shoot and edit all my work with my own professional equipment and the know-how from two decades of experience in TV. 

Restless by nature, I’ve also been a professional photographer since the 1990s. At the end of 2001 I created in Barcelona, together with the French photographer, Jean Pierre Porcher, the photo agency, Gran Angular.

Music Clip. "Roses"

"Nostalgie de la Boue" photo exhibition. "Avec un appareil photo de la Grande Guerre, Nostalgie de la boue explore la manière dont des gens qui font des reconstitutions historiques, tentent de sauvegarder la mémoire collective en France, un siècle après la fin de la guerre. Leurs reconstitutions sont réalisées avec minutie. Ils se basent sur des textes et photos d’époque, avec l’obsession de rendre compte dans les moindres détails du quotidien des combats."

Another ally of May falls in the British government

21 Dec 2017  |  es.euronews.com
Damian Green, the UK's Deputy Prime Minister, resigned after being investigated for having pornographic material on his work computer in the House of Commons and providing contradictory information about it to the police, which constitutes a double breach of the ministerial code. The material was discovered in 2008 during an investigation into leaks within the British government. Green's departure, which he claims is a smear campaign against him, follows that of Defence Minister Michael Fallon, who resigned on November 2 after a sexual harassment complaint by a journalist. Theresa May's position as Prime Minister is weakened by these events.
