I'm Cornel. Writer and director. My job is turning abstract ideas into something you can watch.

Portrait of Cornel Moesli

I learned story in London and at USC, then read scripts for Oscar-nominated producers in Los Angeles. Years of notes on other people's films teach you what an audience forgives and what it won't.

Now I run Cornel Moesli Productions. You get me as your single contact, and behind me a network of writers, DPs, editors, composers and VFX people across Europe and LA. AI sits in the pipeline. Language goes in. Film comes out.

The work runs from campaign films to documentaries to shorts. The method doesn't change: find the one idea worth watching, then defend it through production.
