Niklas Grüter is a filmmaker and visual journalist based in Berlin and Hanover. He graduated from the University of Applied Sciences Hanover in 2022, holding a B.A. in photojournalism and documentary photography.

Throughout his study he shifted his focus to a multimedia approach since he found that to express a certain topic, more than one format can be useful. Therefore he is always searching for new forms of expression and indulges in experimenting to find the most suitable approach for any given topic. 

His graduation project is a crossmedia exhibition, highlighting the struggle of modern day seafarers. The 360° film "Growling Sea" included in the exhibition won first prize at the Sehsüchte Film Festival 2022. 

He is currently working for 2470.media in Berlin, as well as being a freelance filmmaker and photographer.

Clients:

Fritz Cola, use-less, Leibnitz University of Hanover, NLM, Achtung Berlin Film Festival and Human Rights Film Festival.
