Axel is the founder and CEO of vrisch, as well as a veteran VR producer. Since 2002, he worked in the film and advertising industry as a VFX/Motion Graphics artist in Vienna, Munich, and Barcelona adding VR to his work in 2013. In 2015, he and his wife Gabriella founded vrisch, Vienna's first content production company solely dedicated to creating immersive experiences. The Wiener Prater, the Red Cross, and the Austrian Armed Forces are some of the institutions that trusted their expertise.

Gabriella is the co-founder and CCO of vrisch, as well as the founder of XRVienna, Vienna’s first and biggest XR community. She holds a master's degree in Digital Arts and has been working as a project and communications manager in the field of technology and advertising since 2002, adding VR to her field of work in 2013. Gabriella has been selected as one of Europe’s top 20 Women Founders by Forbes and she's also an active member of the Women in Immersive Tech (WiiT) international community. Gabs’ inspiration has 3 main sources: mystical books, archery, and obnoxiously childish jokes.

Sabine is vrisch’s creative assistant and mood-lifter extraordinaire. She has a higher school certificate in Business with a bachelor in Theatre, Film, and Media studies and is responsible for a wide variety of administrative tasks, as well as assisting in the creation of concepts, storyboards, and creative narratives. Sabine is also considered vrisch’s biggest advocate for finding any reason to smile and be happy. And there is no one who loves cats more than her.

Daniel is vrisch’s producer. He studied law in Vienna and Athens. After working as a lawyer for a couple of years he decided to follow his passion and go into filmmaking. His new path led him to New York to study filmmaking and back to Vienna to finish his postgraduate in film. He has been working in the film industry since 2013, mostly in production but also writing and directing. He has also taken several acting classes and is a passionate photographer. Currently, he is also a jury member of the Austrian Motion Picture Rating Organization. His funny side? He can always tell you an inappropriate joke and loves to catch criminals at night in a bat suit.

Martin is vrisch’s VFX supervisor. He has been in the VFX industry since 2001, when he started working in 3D animation, compositing, and motion graphics for TV ads. He specialized in compositing for film in 2009 and has worked in London and Vancouver for MPC, Framestore and Digital Domain, where he produced VFX for Hollywood films. He has been supporting vrisch with his knowledge of VFX as well as his new understanding of working on VFX for 360-content since the beginning of 2018. Besides him being a celebrity in our team for finishing an Iron Man race, Martin has the strength and determination of a Klingon warrior and the looks of Captain Picard. Does it get any better?

Khrystyna is vrisch’s Senior Project Manager and science advisor. After getting a Masters degree in Computer Science with distinction in Ukraine, she started a Ph.D. as a member of the VR research group at TU Wien in 2011. Her research covers perception, interaction, and innovative 3D user interfaces, focusing on real walking in VR. Khrystyna is a master in finding unorthodox solutions to complex challenges, a talent which earned her a number of prizes, scientific publications and extensive media coverage of her work. And what brings inspiration to Khrystina’s bright mind? Asian animation and Chinese martial arts.

Michal is responsible for the technical implementation of projects at vrisch. After graduating with honors in communications engineering in 2006, he specialized in interactive computer graphics and has since developed numerous projects in the areas of gaming, development and creation of apps and many other multimedia visualization and presentation forms. Since 2020 he joined the team and dedicates himself passionately and patiently to all the technical solutions that our services help our clients to obtain. His otherwise calm and matter-of-fact character changes surprisingly when he hits his training partner on the nose during boxing, hits the mat during bouldering or sharpens his reflexes during badminton. His favorite sports all start with B. That is a coincidence. Or isn't it?

Calin is vrisch's 3D Artist and VR Developer. With a background in architecture and a passion for computers and 3D Content Creation, he found his vocation in XR production. While both his work as an architect and his studies at the Technical University of Vienna have greatly contributed to his design skills and creative capabilities, he felt his technical side constantly pulling towards a more digital path. For this reason, he felt right at home when he first started working in the field of XR in 2017 and decided to make it his main professional activity in the coming years. Together with his sidekick, Nox, he's always ready for the next challenge.

Nox is vrisch’s Chief Happiness Officer. From a very early age, he developed a passion for chewing on cartons and making people smile. Born in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, he moved to Vienna following his sidekick Calin’s wish to start a new adventure in that cosmopolitan city.

With each tail wag, he delivers to our team an overflowing amount of joy, fulfillment, and empowerment every single day, transforming vrisch into the perfect work environment.
