Cameraman since:
2009

Tom Keller was born in Bern in 1985. After passing the Matura, he gained his first experience as a TV cameraman, as well as an editor in avid. From 2004 to 2006 he worked at the local TV station in Lyss, until he was called up for military service. After his military training as an officer, he attended the preliminary film course in 2008 and the following year the Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK), graduating in 2012 with a Bachelor of Arts in camera.

In 2009, during his studies, he founded the production company 24frames GmbH, with which he initially produced commercials and, from 2014, documentaries. In 2015, he started preparing and shooting the series Capelli Code, which brought him to Berlin in 2018, where he still lives with his wife and two children. After several German film projects, he became a member of the German Camera Association BVK in 2019. Starting with the birth of his second son in January 2021, he abstained from bigger projects for two years and instead shot commercials and series teasers to be there for the kids together with his wife. He is now putting the experience he gained with Virtual Production at Capelli Code to the test on the 2023 feature film Lili by Thomas Imbach, which was produced exclusively with In Camera Visual Effects. Tom Keller, combines the technical side of filmmaking with the passion of storytelling, enchanting the audience with his images.
