His wide range and variety of color palates, photography and lighting in each of the music videos, films and commercials he has worked on - demonstrates a high level of expertise that is of Oscar caliber! His ability to shoot a wide range of different styles of film is similar to that of Oscar-nominated Cinematographer, Jack N. Green (nominated for “Unforgiven”) - from a dusty Western, to an urban action, to a gritty drama, a futuristic sci-fi, dark night scenes and a ballerina lit with a beautiful flood of sunlight; thereby expertly creating a variety of moods of happiness, despair, darkness, hysteria, action and so on. Like Jack Green, Tobias Deml is verstatile!
