Hey, I’m Eric.

I started my journey as a photographer, doing corporate work like product and interior/architecture photography.

Years later, I pivoted to becoming a colourist, working on client projects like image and short films. During this time, I also built my first plugins for Final Cut Pro.

Today, I share my knowledge and teach colour grading online, helping thousands of creators bring their vision to life.

I teach the why of colour grading using a systemic approach, so creators can focus on their creative intent instead of getting frustrated.

I’m based in Leipzig, Germany.
