Felix Bessner - Director of Photography

Modernity, creativity, expertise, resilience, flexibility, perseverance, zen and humour characterizes Felix in his daily work. Growing up in his uncle's cinema shaped Felix to become an avid cineast and storyteller. As an camera assistant and lighting technician at ARRI he worked his way up right from scratch where he learned from the best and strengthened his skills on multiple movie sets. His empathic intuition for light, movement, dynamics, composition and dramaturgy has never failed him in his career as a DOP, steadicam operator and team player since 2009. His modern and unique visual expression is his extraordinary potential. Organization, preparation and coordination are just as important to him as atmospheric lighting design, modern camera movements, complex staging and storytelling. Felix is based in Munich/Germany and he has gathered his professional experience in over 25 countries.
