POSTKIDS nominated for a First Steps award

Super happy that Julian and Hannah are getting some recognition for this wonderful film I helped edit. Congrats!

Postkids beim Max-Ophüls-Preis

During my time at KHM I met a lot of really talented people who all helped each other in any way they could. Right when I was about to finish my Diplom II, two of those people had a video that needed some Mr. Wolf level editing. So I put my butt down for a few days with Julian and Hannah, and they made it such a great experience that we ended up doing the same thing for this film, Postkids, which you can watch online next week.

Not only are they really, truly sharp filmmakers, but also extremely nice people that I can only hope come my way again. Such a pleasure to help with the online editing, congratulations on the very well deserved premiere!
