Hello, my name is

Mirko Fabian

Multimedia Designer | Photographer | Filmmaker

What motivates me

I am an enthusiastic Multimedia Designer and Photographer. I’m a versatile creative problem solver and artist. Ever since I’ve been a creative kind of person. I find myself often in the realm of photographer but it took years to make it one of my professions. First taking a different career path in IT, but never really fit in. Due to the circumstances of 2020 I decided going my very own way in becoming a self-taught Multimedia Designer. Going this way taught me things I’d have never learnt by going the ordinary way. It’s harder though but in the end it’s more rewarding. I learned for my life and not only for my career. 

What drives and inspires me is the eagerness to improve my work constantly and become a better Designer and Photographer. I am very passionate about what I’m doing today, because I know what it feels like being in a dead-end-job, without noticing any growth. That’s what lead me going my own way, staying focused and disciplined. Consistency is the key to evolve and success. 

Think different, be different, design different

soft skills

  • Empathy

    I'm empathetic and sensitive myself so it's easy for me to "read" other peoples emotions.

  • Determination

    Once I set a goal there's nothing that could possible stop me from achieving it. I do "Whatever It Takes"

  • Tolerance

    Since I'm on my own way I'm open and tolerant when it comes to life itself.
