director of photography.
RESUMEE
I work as cinematographer and screenwriter, I am based in Vienna, Austria. I finished my MA degree at the renowned Film Academy Vienna (Professor DOP Wolfgang Thaler). While collaborating with different directors my main goal is always to search for the right picture according to their vision of the story. I am looking for stories, moments and characters, who leave a lasting impression: visually and emotionally. I am interested in sociopolitical topics. My work has been screened at Berlinale, Cannes, Sundance and Tribeca.
