Hi! I am a passionate and experienced 3D artist with a strong background in digital modeling, look development, and lighting. As a freelancer I primarily work on film projects, including both animated feature films and VFX.
In addition to my freelance work, I regularly take on teaching assignments in the field of VFX and virtual production and run workshops at various universities.
Since 2007, I have been working on academic and commercial projects as a 3D artist, compositor and motion designer. On occasion, I took on jobs as an editor or camera operator or worked as a lighting technician on film sets or in the theater.
In 2015, I completed my master's degree at the Stuttgart Media University, specializing in visual effects and virtual production workflows.
After that, I was employed in the research and development department of the Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg, where I participated in a research project on digital actors while also providing technical support for motion capture sessions and virtual production shoots.
My time at Filmakademie ended with one of the highlights of my career so far: a talk at Siggraph in Vancouver.
Since then, I've been working as a freelance 3D generalist for numerous companies, including RISE FX, Woodblock and M.A.R.K.13, who keep booking me for various film projects.
For Disney's feature film production of “Nutcracker and the Four Realms” I was responsible for the operation of the Ncam tracking system on the film set for a period of several weeks as part of the technical crew from Mackevision.
