De Staat • The Fantastic Journey

All splitscreens in-camera

Andre creates visual comedy that lives in a playful and imaginative universe. With tongue-in-cheek humor he guides his actors through the wonderful worlds he builds around them.

Andre is a big fan of whodunnits and the cleverness of its heroes such as Miss Marple and Sherlock Holmes. Like these fictional mentors Andre works with a similar combination of playfulness and precision to solve creative puzzles by digging deep to find a unique approach and style for every project.

And it may explain why his own stories often feature a similar set of charming characters and surprising twists...though a murder has yet to occur.

Andre studied advertising at the Art Academy in Berlin and started his career shooting music videos and stop-motion animations. Over the years he developed a fine sense for smart camera work and skilfully crafted production design.

When he is not shooting commercials he spends his time on his surfboard in the small Dutch waves, or creating crazy absurd short films that have earned him several Vimeo Staff Picks.
