Hi! I’m Dan

I’m a german VR artist working from Stuttgart. Get in touch with me to find out if I am currently available.

A bit about me

2015

Foundations in storytelling

After working uncreative jobs at TV stations and for Porsche, I pivoted — and began studying at Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg, one of the world’s top schools for animation.

2017

First steps in directing

After a few early student shorts, I got the amazing opportunity to co-direct Petzi, a children’s series produced by Studio Soi. It was my first time leading a professional production — and it taught me how to direct for a team, a schedule, and an audience.

2018

Entering VR through Quill

Goro Fujita’s Quill workshop opened a whole new world. I instantly knew this was the future — and began combining my animation background with immersive VR art.

2020

Graduation & breakthrough projects

Earned my animation diploma, joined Namoo as Lead Quill Artist, co-founded Studio Syro, and started directing Tales from Soda Island —  the first VR series made entirely in Quill.

2024

Building something bigger

Founded Spacelime Studios to create games and support the creative industry in Stuttgart. My Instagram reels gained traction and brought VR art to millions.

2025

Teaching the next generation

Launched my first online course to help aspiring artists master Quill and build careers in VR. It’s the first step in growing a global community of immersive creators.

My brain's other happy places.

What I'm up to when I'm not in VR:

Chess – for the mind

I’ve loved chess since I was a kid — it sharpens focus, patience, and storytelling skills. I play on the first board in competitions for my local club.
Magnus, if you’re reading this... I’m ready.

Formula 1 – for the thrill

There’s nothing like race weekend. I’m obsessed with the strategy, the technology, and the raw intensity of the sport.
Fun fact: the color scheme of this site is inspired by my favorite F1 team.
