I have been fascinated by films since my childhood. As our family did not have a television at home and my father was just as much of a film fanatic as I am now, my parents essentially raised me in the cinema.
From creating Playmobil and Lego short films to launching my YouTube channel "VALL-E," where I could express my love for animated films, filmmaking gradually became a central part of my life.
A major milestone for me was shooting and screening my first short film Spieluhr-Ballerina. As it was shown to a cinema audience of over 200 people, I realized that the most important aspect of filmmaking for me is the impact it has on the viewer.
The idea that I can captivate people through my work and draw them into the magic of cinema is my greatest goal.
