I love telling stories!
Equipped with a heart and mind for ( so called ) arthouse films I also have a not too small softspot for blockbuster movies: I enjoy the broad spectrum of storytelling. From genre films to social issue documentaries. It is precisely this diversity which makes editing such engaging work.
Each project offers the opportunity to immerse myself into new topics, characters, storytelling approaches, and learn new things. It is challenging and very fulfilling to be able to use this growing knowledge in my everyday life.
Feeling into a films’ characters, understanding their motivations, desires, hopes and fears gives me immense joy. I want the audience to feel that too. To fall in love with them – or hate them. Just as I do. Or just as needed.
We create emotions and spark thoughts with each choice of image or sound. The viewer takes a feeling or question home. A discussion begins and the film’s objective has left the screening room. Change happens.
As an editor I cherish the opportunity to work on films which have the capacity to empower people and foster change.
