Adam is a really open minded and cooperative DoP where feelings come first. Whether it’s supporting and pushing the emotion of the image and the story or supporting each other emotionally during the process, he really sees filmmaking as a collaborative experience.
By staying open to what is happening around him, he enables himself to create images, sharing his experience and let the viewer feel each frame.
Having years of experience in lighting, color grading and camera work, Adam can let go of the technical side and focus on the images in a more artistic way. In order to successfully encourage this process, Adam is passionate about precise preparation: discussing and exchanging ideas beforehand, having an exact knowledge of the given "toolbox" and a close collaboration with the whole crew to make the images as good as possible.
Born in Austria and now living in Berlin, Adam has learned his craft not only in various positions on set, also refined his skills at the prestigious Konrad Wolf Academy of Film and Television in Babelsberg, studying cinematography.
He was awarded the Young Cinematography Encouragement Award from Silbersalz, Kodak & Vantage for his work on the short film “The Taster”. The film was shot on 35mm and won the BAFTA Student Award for Best Live Action Short Film 2023 in Los Angeles.
His cinematography feature film debut „Another German Tank Story“ premiered in 2024 at the Shanghai Film Festival and at the Filmfest Munich.
