He made his television debut in 1989, during the Great National Assembly in Chisinau. The career he started in public television continued at PRO TV Chisinau, being part of the team that launched the TV station in the Republic of Moldova. The footage taken at the attack at the Nord-Ost theater in Moscow, the plane crash in Smolensk and the series of reports from Chernobyl, recommended him to the elite team of PRO TV Bucharest. Between 2004 and 2010 Andrei Captarenco was one of the most appreciated cameramen in Romania, filming for the journalistic campaign "Do you know what your child is doing?", winner of the International Emmy Award (New York, 2008). Later, he contributed to internationally awarded materials for the reportage show "In Premiere" of the Antena3 television station (Romania), and his images brought the cinematic standard to television. After filming reports, documentaries and investigations at Digi24 (Romania), Andrei returned to the Republic of Moldova in 2020, where he began the editorial project that continues today. Together with Viorica Tataru, they became a reference for documentary film in southeastern Europe. Their films dealt with the subject of the Russian military occupation of the left bank of the Dniester ("Beyond the Dniester"), themes of recent history, and the dramas of Russia's occupation war in Ukraine. The documentary "The Road to War", awarded by the Royal House of Romania (2022) and nominated for the Rome Film Festival (2023), is a shocking series about the freedom and resistance of the Ukrainian people in the face of the invaders. On the day Russia attacked Ukraine, Andrei Captarenco was in Mariupol, where he was documenting the tense situation on Ukraine's eastern border.
