Dieter Deventer - Director of Photography
Dieter was born and raised in Munich. His first films primarily documented the world of ski acrobatics in which he was involved as a competitor. Dieter studied at the University of Television and Film in Munich, HFF. His student film "Sorcerer´s Apprentice" gained him first prize at the Festival of Fantastic Film in Munich. Since then he has been working around the world as a DoP for commercials and feature films. Within more than 25 years he has created hundreds of commercials for national and international trademarks such as Batida de Coco, Nike, Lufthansa, Bacardi, etc. He worked as a DoP on several short movies, television movies and feature films for the cinema, among them "Vaya Con Dios", which was awarded four Bavarian Film Prizes. For the feature film "FYNBOS" by Harry Patramanis, Dieter got the Kodak Vision Award for Best Cinematography, Slamdance Film Festival 2013. Since 2004, parallel to his profession as a DoP, he has increasingly concentrated on photo projects of his own. There he works on documentary series as well as on abstract experimental photography.
