Leon Philipp

I was born and raised in the beautiful Vienna. In my childhood, my father being a photographer himself, taught me the craft of creating still images and understanding the meaning of colour and framing. Later in life, I discovered the moving image would be my destination. I began working in the film industry as a lighting technician and camera assistant, which made me understand the technical aspects of cinematography. Whilst working on these projects, I felt it was time to further develop my artistic abilities, which is why I started to pick up projects as a cinematographer at that point. I absolutely love collaborating with other talented artists and learnt from each and everyone of them. Up until this point, I have worked on 25 different productions over the past 5 years, including award winning feature films, documentaries and shortfilms. In September 2024 I will be moving to the UK to continue my journey.
