Whale watchers
Sailing the Mediterranean with a marine mammal conservation organisation.

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.
Until recently I knew nothing about the dolphins and whales living in the Mediterranean. Then in July I accompanied the Swiss marine mammal conservation organisation “OceanCare” on a research journey through the so-called Pelagos Sanctuary for Mediterranean marine mammals. I discovered a lot I didn’t expect to find.
