Where to go? [ˈvɜːtɪgəʊ]
As the final project of our bachelor studies, 4 friends and I created a deeply personal animated short. It allowed us to express our questions and fears about growing up.
I co-created the story, wrote the script, directed and edited it. There are still a few details to be handled until it is finalised but still – here is a first look.
Showreel 2020
Melo
I dove deep into myself. What I found turned into a song and this video.
Written, directed and edited.
So far we got nominated at 3 festivals and honored at the Film Forum Austria.
Einsam / Schön aber Sad
I produced and co-wrote two music videos for an upcoming austrian pop artist.
The seven-day shoot involved 15 crewmembers and 13 actors - a big but rewarding challenge.
Besides producing it, I also did the Color Grading on the music video for "Einsam".
Mia & Seb | Chapter X
My first project when I started my studies was this video for the fusion of two of my songs. I learned a lot about the craft of film making from the director, Lukas Halder. I wrote, produced and edited it.
We got nominated for Best Austrian Music Video at the Vienna Shorts along with some of the biggest bands in Austria like "Bilderbuch".
Q
This project has been started and finished within 36 hours.
We participated in a local competition where you get a topic and an item that needs to be in the video. 36 hours later the finished short film has to be delivered.
We got selected and it was screened.
A naive person finds out that excitement starts when you get off the beaten path.
Further Experiences
Here you can see all the projects I have worked on in various positions.
Bleed
In this colorful project my position as Best Boy taught me a lot about handling details in lighting.
Almkanal - A River Wave
As one of the Camera Operators I learned to follow quick movements and school my eye in finding details to set a mood.
The Past Will Last
For this upcoming 40 minute short I gained experience as a Second AC. Here I learned in depth about how to work with a high standard camera like the Arri Alexa.
Lonely Scream
My position as best boy in this recent shoot showed me how to handle green and blue screen when it comes to lighting.
