So Was Von Da
Title design for the novel adaptation of So Was Von Da by Timo Hanekamp improvised by Jakob Lass.
It is the story of Oskar Wrobel and his friends, about idealism, love, burst dreams and the will to create the world in which we want to live.
It's New Year's Eve. Tomorrow is over. Tomorrow will be different.
Anyway, first get red fruit for the party punch now. In Hamburg, in Oskar's club, the last night is breaking.

Personal Project, trying the first steps in Octane.
I am very happy to have been involved in creating the award-winning documentary The Ivory Game.
Which has made it on the Oscar-shortlist for the 2017 Academy Award nominations.
Vienna-based Terra Mater Film Studios’ investigative documentary exposing the dark world of ivory trafficking.
http://www.terramater.at/cinema/the-ivory-game/
The movie sheds light on the underground world of ivory trafficking. Prized as a status symbol among the Chinese middle classes, ivory is the object of a deeply corrupt, illegal global trading system. The Ivory Game was created by award-winning director Richard Ladkani and Academy Award®-nominated director Kief Davidson. Filming for 16 months, the two were able to reveal the terrible truth behind the increasing numbers of African elephants being poached for their ‘white gold’.
Produced by Leonardo di Caprio, the Ivory Game was released on Netflix worldwide on November 4. 2016
The Motion and VFX Studio Kaiserlicht from Vienna delivered the entire graphics package for the movie, including the opening title sequence and all the graphic inserts.
When Kaiserlicht approached me to crate some Styleframes for the Pitch we developing multiple concepts and style frames. The Ivory Game was filmed in several African and Asian countries, so one of the key requirements for the title sequence was to show maps of the various locations. The idea of carving these maps directly into the ivory proved popular with the directors, and so we successfully won the pitch.

I was commissioned by Infected Post (Hamburg) to create the key visuals, motion graphics and final logo animation for the ZDF 2014 World Cup trailer.
The main aim of the trailer was to create a striking visual identity to reflect the feeling and atmosphere of Brazil and Rio de Janeiro.
To represent the many different people joining together for the tournament, the idea was to use the technique of Poinitllism to show the many different impressions made from the coloured footballs joining together to create one big picture of the World Cup.

This stunning promo for the Konzerthaus Dortmund concert hall celebrates a new season of musical performances with a lyrical ode to fire. It’s a perfect example of Sehsucht’s inventive approach to motion design, one that blurs the line between real and unreal as abstraction becomes literal.
Fire has never been so mystically captivating on screen.
