«I have spend two hours working with Tobias logged into my website and he helped me to get things customised on my site quickly. I didn't have to sit and figure things out by myself and I saved so much time. He is kind and focused and has great knowledge of a wide range of video/web/design related topics. I highly recommend him.»

About Tobias Michel
I once was a perfectionist that valued design excellence and great music over everything, until I almost burned out! By now I learned that passion beats perfection and "good enough" is better than "not done yet". I create animations and visuals for brands, bands, YouTube channels, events, produce music and teach video- and podcast production courses.
I was first introduced to Adobe Photoshop in 1997 and Adobe Premiere in 1998 as a young teenager in the 90s. Imagine growing up in Germany during that time, the wall had fallen, global peace was within reach, everything seemed possible, and the music, the crazy, crazy music that was invented at the time! With a loud and happy mix of music playing on my small HiFi system, I spent years and years creating and refining my skills. Ever since then I have been enjoying design, video, playing music, sound mixing and animating graphics in 2.5D in various positions:
From working as a magazine designer, animating titles and editing videos for the biggest private-owned TV station in Norway, producing live-streams, conferences and concerts, to giving many video production workshops at the biggest Adobe course- and conference-organizer in Norway. I have done a lot, and learned a lot!
I have discovered that I love variation, enjoy a good challenge and ideally work with mid-sized businesses/ clients, not low-budget-DIY, neither corporate large crew productions, but up to a handful of people with the right equipment for the job creating quality and punching way above their weight-class.
