My Journey in Color Grading

​

Every project, elevated:

Trained as a media designer for image and sound in northern Germany, started as a camera assistant, grew deep into postproduction over the years. At some point it became clear: Color Grading is what I can't let go of.

14 years in Berlin did the rest. Automotive spots for Hyundai, BMW, Mercedes Benz, Mazda. Beauty and fashion campaigns. Corporate films, documentaries, music videos. Over 15 years in the advertising industry, most of it as a specialized colorist.

​

Remote Workflow:

Today I work as a freelancer and am available worldwide. On site in the postproduction facility or remote, both work. For the remote workflow I built a proprietary solution that streams in 4K, 4:2:2 chroma subsampling and 10 bit live. No compromises on image quality, no software limitations. What agencies and production companies appreciate about it: It simply works, and it looks exactly like sitting in the grading suite next door.

Visual Artist, AI native:

I am a visual artist with a strong pull towards the technical. AI native, not because it's trending, but because technology has always interested me. New tools, new workflows, new possibilities. That drives me, just as much as the image itself.

Available worldwide:

Based in Schleswig Holstein, between Hamburg, Neumünster and Kiel. But I travel for projects, wherever they need me.
