Johannes Kreuser was born in Wuppertal, Germany in 1985. After school he decided to start a commercial apprenticeship in an advertising agency. After six months he knew something had to change. Thats when he started to work on short films and as a camera assistant for television.

Johannes studied β€žFilm / Cinematographyβ€œ in Berlin & Hamburg between 2008 and 2014 and finished with a Master of Arts at Hamburg Media School. He met a lot of inspiring mentors such as John Seale, Judith Kaufmann, Achim Poulheim, Jo Heim, Matthias Bolliger, Hagen Bogdanski, Benedict Neuenfels and a lot more.
