about felix storp

felix is born in 1958 in frankfurt/germany and lives in hamburg.

He started to work in the film business after being a winegrower and doing lots of other different professions. before felix decided to be a dop, he worked as a lighting electrician, key grip and camera assistant.

his time at mat affected him so much, that he was very much involved on the pioneer work for camera cranes and remote heads. still he has his passion for moving cameras, that's why he likes to work with the steadicam so often.

felix does not look for perfection, because perfection means deadlock. he is of the opinion that to shoot a film is a process of approximation.

quotation of directors, who worked with felix:
"the man, who see in the darkness as much as i do."
"i can work with people only, if they are free of anguish, otherwise you never know what you get.“
"the great thing about felix is that he seems to know the movements of the actors before they know it."
"a steadicam in the hands of felix feels like a musical instrument."
"women feel beautiful, men feel more interesting, children feel comfortable and stars know quickly, who watch them trough the lens."

felix is welcome in every production and directors love him for his flexibilty, fast reaction and always a big smile!

he speaks fluently german, english, danish and hebrew a bit
