Premiere at 59. Hof Intl. Film Festival

My most recent (german) feature film “End of the circle” is having premiere at the Intl. Filmfestival Hof @hoferfilmtage

Good luck, Viel Erfolg! Besides there is the (to be fair pretty small) chance to win Best Production Design – which would be a surprise – although I am proud of my work for this movie! No surprise, then, if it were to win an award for screenplay, direction, or cinematography. This film tells a very personal story, and the cinematography – with each scene captured in a single take – creates an exceptionally intimate atmosphere

“Holy Nightshift” | Aldi Xmas TV Spot

Creating the Production Design for the 2022 Xmas Highlight Spot. The very narrative, touching and cinematic spot is more a shortfilm than a usual commercial (of which we shot also additional three spots with the wellknown animated carrot characters of Aldi). Shot in beautyful Warszaw together with 3 other more usual Commercials for Xmas Time it was a perfect challenge.

J-Mag = Live Japan-Anime-Cosplay-Manga-Magazin

Neben der inhaltlichen ist auch die visuelle Konzeption ein Prozeß – wie üblich. Leider nicht immer da zuende, wo der Szenenbildner das Optimum sieht (hier: ein Set, welches sich ständig verändert, komplett und in jeder Ecke bespiel- und bescribblebares ist, sich immer wieder erneuert durch die Zeichnungen, die Moderatorin und Gäste produzieren.

sigh…
