about me
De Lachende Cavalier offers historical research, advice & editing, especially for the use of history in film & media. Examples of activities in the field of film and TV are: Researching and checking historical film scripts and advising on historically correct decoration of set and characters.

remarks
De Lachende Cavalier has experience with historical (archive) research, also in combination with entertainment. Good historical research can take a long time, especially if you don't know where to look or where to start. The Laughing Cavalier knows that and can therefore provide correct historical information within a short time. And when your product or project is (at first glance) portrayed or articulated historically correctly, it will be taken more seriously by critics!

trackrecord
"Rembrandt and I" by Eyeworks for the EO. Historical research into rides, religious festivals, etc. 'Gijsbreght van Aemstel' by Sigma Pictures. Checking the screenplay for historical inaccuracies. Historical research into Amsterdam around 1300 for parts of the decor.
