Spaghetti Western Cinematographer ~ Georg Schubert

Georg Hermann Schubert was born in Berlin, Germany on June 14, 1869 and began his career in cinematography in 1913, during the early development of the German silent film industry when short films dominated production. His earliest documented credits include serving as cinematographer on several short films that year, among them “Das Fischermädchen von Skagen”, “Der Totenkopfhusar”, and “Helena, das lebende Torpedo”, all produced in the nascent era of German cinema. These works were typically created by short-lived production companies characteristic of the pre-war period, when the industry was still experimenting with narrative and technical possibilities in short formats.

In 1915, Schubert received another credit as cinematographer for the short film “Der schwarze Husar”, continuing his involvement in the evolving German film scene just before his transition to directing the following year. As an early artisan behind the camera, he contributed to the foundational phase of German silent cinema, working in an environment of rapid change and limited resources typical of the time.

Georg Schubert was a cinematographer on one silent Eur0-western, “Der Cowboy-Milliardär” (The Cowboy Millionaire) in 1920
