I am Claudia Syhre, a Berlin-based film and video editor with a strong track record in indie dramas, documentaries, and experimental shorts. I work across the full post-production pipeline, from editorial and sound design to color grading, subtitling, dubbing, post-production supervision, workflow development and archive management. I edit with AVID, DaVinci Resolve Studio, Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro X, collaborating closely with directors. My passion lies in shaping performances and creating strong character moments and story arcs. My strengths are my innate empathy and capacity to listen, and that I derive great joy from solving problems in a creative way.
I have received training in dramaturgy, sound editing, colour grading, fine arts and theatre. I love film as a medium, whether fictional or documentary, for its ability to capture (or create) genuinely human moments and offer intimate insights into other people’s lives. I have a background in directing short films and academic research. Having travelled extensively, I am always curious and open to new collaborations worldwide.

One of these was a film in which I accompanied the young Lusatian brass band Stara Laubemia (my client in this case) with a camera, as they travelled from their village of Ostritz all the way to New York for the short musical "There is no Zweifel. Mit der Alten Laube in New York".
