Founder
Marc Hermann

Marc Hermann studied physics and journalism and has spent his entire professional life (since 2000) at the intersection of science and visual communication.

He taught himself film-making through the production of an award-winning short film, and he was twice invited to Berlinale Talent Campus.

MarcHermannFRMII-kleinEarly in 2006 he founded TRICKLABOR to combine his various interests.

He supervises all our productions, and he works on concepts, directs, edits and animates.

Marc’s animation heroes are John Lasseter and Tex Avery, his favourite director is Stanley Kubrick, and Werner Heisenberg and Marie Curie are two scientists whose lives greatly impressed him.
