Ralf Kohr

About

Hi, I am Ralf, a 38-year old audio/visual and multimedia expert with lots of technical background. Having German roots and a global background I combine the German “Gründlichkeit” with a creative, open mind. I’ve grown up in Trier, a small town in Germany. Here I worked as IT Technician amongst being a professional basketball player. Not bad, however I was looking for more. Therefore I left to study digital arts in London. This has influenced my work style and opened my mind. With a lot of new experience I returned back to Germany and started working as digital designer for an independent, worldwide-acting DVD/BD Studio. Looking for further inspiration, I decided to move to Berlin where I worked as designer for TV commercials for two years. 2006, back in Trier and working part-time for my previous employer, I started an own small film-company with a partner. We worked on company films, commercials and web projects. I also gained experience in at this time upcoming fields of high definition, 3D and stereoscopy. Having an own company taught me how important administrative work like quoting, scheduling and organizing a workflow is. Being a creative and versatile mind, I moved one year ago to Amsterdam, working as senior motion graphic designer for Marco Klein+Partners. My aspiration is to improve my already wide knowledge in the working fields of 3D design, technology and in the area of compositing. New chances, new opportunities are to explore here!
