Jonas Riemer

Jonas Riemer was born in 1990 near Berlin and studied Animation at the Film University Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF. In his youth, he and his friends experimented a lot by shooting film exercises and also completed a 90-minute format. In his innovative work, Jonas Riemer plays with the limits of the possible, combining elements of the live-action, animation, and visual effects film. In 2011 he worked as a production assistant and lead animator on the internationally successful feature film THIS AIN’T CALIFORNIA. MASCARPONE is his first short film as a director, author, and VFX supervisor – a no-budget blockbuster created by over 100 contributors is the result.
