Born in 1997 in Tyrol, Austria. Christoph Amort is producing, editing and directing music videos, commercials and short films. Projects with an emphasis on social or cultural issues are his main area of interest. His passion for photography, film, painting and every other form of creative expression have been a part of Christophs life since early on.
Together with his colleagues Patricia Neuhauser and Christoph Platzer, they founded the "Kollektiv Senfblau". In this collective they want to continue to express those relevant topics in an artistic way.
