Hi there,
my name is Niko, a young, aspiring artist based in Freiburg and Stuttgart, Germany. After my Bachelor of Arts Degree from the University of Applied Science Offenburg, I'm now working for Pixomondo as FX Artist.
Generally speaking I mainly focus on postproduction such as motion graphics, title design, visual effects, editing and colorgrading.
Besides pushing pixels around, I enjoy acting (for further information, follow this link), doing martial arts, playing the piano and (of course) enjoying some good movies.
