»My goal is to see and hear together with the students, to sharpen the senses in order to recognize the substantial inside of a material and to transform it into pictures.
Every image designer has two identities. On the one hand, the technical craftsmanship, on the other hand the artistic, creative identity.
I would like to support students in merging these two identities in order to develop visual concepts and implement them technically. Only in this way can we serve a story and become creative partners in the process of making a film.
The students should get to know the visual realization of a film as a creative process based on the division of labour, in which the image designers are involved at an early stage in considerations about the development of the story, to think in terms of content, and then to position themselves as a mediator between all the trades.«
