About Thomas

For over 25 years, I have been active in the world of digital staging in the fields of editing and animation. I don't just work 'off' things, I dive in. This is complemented by my private activities as a Tec-Diver and 2* Dive Instructor, as well as weekend glider pilots. Precise planning, safety, and a high degree of responsibility are fundamental prerequisites for this. I naturally bring independent thinking, list-keeping, project loyalty, and sportsmanship to even difficult situations.


Editing
In editing, AVID and Adobe Premiere have been my tools since 2001. With my knowledge of Adobe After Effects, Adobe Photoshop, and Adobe Illustrator, I also bring experience in creating motion graphics and 2D animations. As a freelancer since 2006, I have been able to contribute my experience and knowledge in editing, as well as film and television development. Primarily for pilots and the associated graphic development (in the TV sector) and for internationally award-winning feature films (in the documentary sector). Close collaboration with directors, executive producers, and authors is very familiar to me.


Animation 2D | 3D
In the field of animation (2D & 3D), I mainly use Adobe After Effects and Cinema 4D. My skills are further complemented by numerous plug-ins and additional renderers. Above-average and solid knowledge of Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator is a prerequisite for the implementation of 2D/3D animations. As a Motion Designer & 3D Operator, I have been able to contribute my expertise to numerous projects and effectively participate in their implementation and planning. Close and direct collaboration with the end customer, directors, executive producers, and authors is the focus.

    For the series format "Die Bergfreundinen" (The Mountain Friends), I had the opportunity to create approximately 225 graphic elements for the 3rd season. We had 10 days for this. In addition to various animated hiking maps, mostly graphic inserts such as location markers, altitude profiles, and lower thirds were created. Further adjustments were implemented directly in the editing room.

    For a streaming channel, I created two channel packages together with Melo.TV (Peter Schelhorn). This resulted in channel IDs, commercial break IDs, "Gleich Morgen" (Coming Up Next), and much more. Cinema 4D and After Effects were used for this. I particularly enjoyed the discovery phase and defining the movements and animation with Melo.tv.

    The task in this project was to create various graphic elements that were integrated as transitions and information overlays in the 4-part series "Das Letzte Lebenszeichen" (The Last Sign of Life). I worked primarily with After Effects. Additionally, I was involved in video editing. The interaction with the authors and video technology was very enjoyable. Over 72 individual graphic elements were created for the documentary series. These went through approvals and revision loops, making a well-maintained list indispensable. :)
