ABOUT
TOBIAS DERUWE

Through a classical approach that revolves around emotionally engaging storytelling, I continuously explore a sense of nostalgia in my work, bringing warmth and authenticity to it. Focusing on the essence of a moment and emotion.
With a fine eye for detail in art direction, color and sound I create films that are both memorable and immersive while conveying a strong message.
Collaboration is a vitally important aspect of the development of my films.
That is why I surround myself with talented people to whom I can entrust my vision and also allow me to push myself creatively, keeping an open eye to new directions and styles.
Staying true to myself and my vision, I only take on films that I can put myself behind completely, guaranteeing a tremendous amount of energy, dedication, and involvement in every project.
I directed films and campaigns for clients including Pfizer, Samsung, Vinted, Ketnet and other VRT brands, Suzuki, Vlaamse overheid, Telenet, and many more.
Currently, I am directing Belgian’s first True Crime series for Streamz and SBS called "True Crime Belgium" amongst the development of a fiction series and short film.
