I am a R&D oriented computer scientist with a strong relation to movie productions.Currently I am working as engineer in the research & development of the Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg (Germany) in the EU funded project SAUCE and as contact person for the regional 'KI-Lab Animation & VFX' bringing Artificial Intelligence closer to VFX- & Animationstudios.Coming from a documentary film making family background, I was already highly interested in photography, cinematography and image processing in early ages.I then studied media & computer science at the University of Tübingen with a specialization in computer vision and computer graphics to get to know more about those algorithms that I had used for several years. Parallel to my studies I was also camera operator on a couple of documentary films and web developer for a couple of websites.With my gained knowledge in computer vision and computer graphics I was hired by the R&D team of the animation institute at the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg. I first wrote my bachelor theses there as intern and was afterwards employed as R&D engineer in the international, EU funded project Dreamspace.Beginning in autumn 2015 I joined the master degree course "Visual Computing" at the University of Saarland where I continued to work in the Dreamspace project for the DFKI (German research center for artificial intelligence) and the Intel Visual Computing Institute on the Campus of University of Saarland.In early 2018 I finished my master of science in the field of visual computing (computer vision & computer graphics).
