Bringing it all together

swissinfo.ch is a news and current affairs web platform that produces text and multimedia elements in nine languages. The company has been practicing media convergence since its transformation from a shortwave radio station. Convergence journalism involves cooperation between text, photo and video journalists to produce the best stories possible for an international audience. (Michele Andina, swissinfo.ch)

My work is focused on making videos and podcasts about science and technology topics. I specialize in developing explainatory video formats for mobile viewing, mixing animation and documentary styles. I studied filmmaking and animation at Zurich University of the Arts and began working as a video journalist at SWI swissinfo.ch in 2004. Since then I have specialised in creating different styles of animation for our visual products.
