About

I’m an AI video specialist, motion designer, and video editor based in the Zurich Metropolitan Area, combining traditional editing, motion design, compositing, and color work with modern generative AI tools. From concept to final delivery, I create consistent character- and scene-ready visuals, then animate and polish them in production workflows built for speed and quality.

Across roles at SRF and as a freelance specialist, I’ve developed prompt-based, reference-driven processes to maintain visual consistency across scenes and versions. I work with tools such as Runway, Kling, VEO, and Midjourney (plus image/asset workflows) and bring everything together in Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro for clean, reliable video outputs.
