BASTIAN MEIER

Cinematographer

From a craftsman to a career behind the lens. It only took a brief insight into the world of photography to realise which path I wanted to take in the future.

At film school in Zurich, I learnt the basic skills of camera operation, editing and montage. After my training, I worked for a production company as Director of Photography (DOP) and cameraman for over 6 years. Since spring 2012 I am self-employed with Morph Pictures and realise projects as a freelancer for production companies, advertising agencies and clients.

With more than 18 years of experience as a cameraman and Director of Photography (DOP), you are not only a professional in the technical craft, but also a solution-orientated creative mind who finds the right angle in every situation.

You mainly work on advertising, documentary and corporate films and love filming in extreme outdoor situations - you are in your element where others reach their limits.

Your approach is uncomplicated and open, you always find ways to get the best out of every project, even in challenging moments. With your wealth of experience and passion for the subject matter, you are a reliable partner who not only meets the technical requirements, but also brings the emotional power of a film to life.
