PETER BADEL (Germany)
Peter Badel is a documentarian, director of photography of cine-documentaries as well as motion pictures, and a photographer.

Currently he is teaching cinematography at the Film & Television Academy HFF in Potsdam. Pictorial language: ”I care much less about camera angles, menu items or tricks of lightning than it is generally expected from directors of photography. The starting point of all considerations is how people influence each other during the process of filming; it is about how people encounter and how they engage with each other. Personality, experiences of generations and the kind of education may vary significantly among colleagues; but all experiences I came across during my research show the same stalwart ambition for the most vital requirement in the genesis of motion pictures: trust.“
