Mit meiner langjährigen Erfahrung als Drehbuchautor, Regisseur und Produzent biete ich KI-gestützte Videolösungen, die nicht nur Inhalte vermitteln, sondern auch Emotionen wecken. Storytelling ist der Kern meiner Arbeit: Botschaften auf den Punkt zu bringen und Unternehmen die Möglichkeit zu geben, authentisch zu kommunizieren.

Was ich biete:

🌐 Ads – Kreative und zielgerichtete Werbemaßnahmen, die im Gedächtnis bleiben und die Markenbotschaft Deines Unternehmens effektiv transportieren.

🎥 Erklär- & Imagevideos – Videos, die komplexe Themen klar und visuell ansprechend aufbereiten – perfekt für kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen.

👤 Avatare – Individuell gestaltete digitale Charaktere, die Dein Unternehmen oder Deine Marke auf innovative Weise repräsentieren.

🧭 Beratung – Maßgeschneiderte Strategien, um die neuesten KI-Technologien optimal in Deinem Videomarketing einzusetzen.

🌱 Green Producing – Nachhaltige Produktionstechniken, die Ressourcen schonen und gleichzeitig höchste Qualität gewährleisten.

Warum Storytelling im KI-Zeitalter?

Storytelling bedeutet für mich, Technologie und Kreativität zu verbinden und so Videos zu erschaffen, die Menschen berühren und im Gedächtnis bleiben. Mit meiner Erfahrung als Drehbuchautor sorge ich dafür, dass jede Marke eine klare, emotionale Botschaft transportiert, die ihre Zielgruppe anspricht und begeistert.

Wenn Du neugierig bist, wie KI-gestützte Videolösungen Dein Unternehmen voranbringen können, lass uns ins Gespräch kommen!

📩 Schreib mir einfach eine Nachricht – ich freue mich darauf, gemeinsam an Deiner Vision zu arbeiten.

Herzliche Grüße

🔥 KI-Enthusiasmus, mal nicht blau grau! 

Letzte Woche fühlte sich unser AI Filmmakers Berlin Meetup (Ausgabe Nr. 6!) besonders familiär an und trotzdem wieder völlig anders.

Wenn wir zusammenkommen, wird aus Technologie plötzlich etwas Persönliches. Etwas Mutiges. Etwas Eigenes.

Was als kleiner Tisch im Café begann, ist heute eine Community, in der alles nebeneinander Platz hat:

Arthouse. Commercial. Vertical. Horizontal. Laut. Leise. Experimentell. Roh.
Alles erlaubt. Alles willkommen.

Vielen Dank an alle Filmemacher:innen, die gezeigt, gesprochen und geteilt haben:

Adrian Daniel Botnariu
Daniel Müller
Esther Gronenborn
Mark Wachholz
Phil Langer
Sebastian Ungrad
Sylvia Nitzsche
Markus Müller-Hahnefeld
Alexis Dworsky

…und ich habe diesmal auch einen eigenen neuen Kurzfilm gezeigt. 

Danke an alle, die den Raum mitgetragen haben und ihn mit Gesprächen, Neugier und Offenheit gefüllt haben. Und danke an Ludwig Kienle fürs Mitorganisieren und den gemütlichen Raum. 

Ich freue mich jetzt schon auf den nächsten Meetup.

Für mehr Infos gern DM.

🤯 Heute in meinem Postfach: meine 3 Seiten VEO 3.1 Review aus echter Nutzung!

Danke an Miran Melansek und das KI-BUZZER Team für das Vertrauen in der November-Ausgabe!

Aktuell gibt es unzählige Reviews zu allen möglichen Tools. Oft Cherry Picking, halb gesponsert oder einfach Wiederholungen von Marketing Videos. Bei dem Tempo der Releases ist das fast logisch.

Genau deshalb fühlt sich dieser Artikel gut an: Er kommt aus echter Praxis.
Ich nutze das Tool täglich und genau so ist der Review entstanden.

Das Magazin ist voll mit starken Artikeln. Für jeden etwas dabei.

Holen kann man sich das Magazin ab dem 20.11. im Zeitschriftenhandel oder jetzt schon im Shop. Link in den Kommentaren.

Stöberst du auch noch gern in gedruckten Magazinen oder bist du Team Online-Artikel?

🔥 📺 "House of Bellevue" ist gestartet und ich freue mich sehr, Teil des Writers Rooms gewesen zu sein.

Vielen Dank Kai S. Pieck, dass du mich so früh in die kreative Arbeit geholt hast.

House of Bellevue erzählt die Geschichte eines 19-Jährigen, der die Provinz hinter sich lässt und in die Ballroom Community Berlins eintaucht. Eine Szene voller Energie, Vielfalt und gelebter Identität.

Und ich gebe zu, es ist ein kleines Highlight für mich, meine Wahlstadt Berlin im fertigen Material zu sehen. Diese Mischung aus persönlichen Geschichten und Subkultur verleiht der Serie eine ganz eigene Energie.

Die Serie ist jetzt in der ZDF Mediathek zu sehen und läuft am 2.12 erstmals im TV. Den Link zum Stream findet ihr unten in den Kommentaren.

Think about that: Almost 120,000 hours of your life you will be at work (so around 14 entire years excluding sleep, food, coffee breaks and cute kitten videos!) Shouldn’t those hours be as fun, educational and exciting as possible? Google created a professional playground for people who are not only some of the world’s most brilliant, but who are talented, driven, positive and live life with a purpose.
 
Created a culture that helped Googlers thrive, be authentically themselves and, by that, accomplish extraordinary things together. Holistic business partnering, consultancy and advisory on the full People & Culture spectrum from onboarding to employee relations, performance management to reorgs, emotional wellbeing to employee engagement, internal mobility to talent management and retention, benefits to leadership development and executive coaching, events and campaigns, as well as diversity, inclusion and belonging — all under the guiding principles of equity, respect and excellence.

Everyone has the ability to foster inclusion and belonging as an ally as privilege is intersectional: white women can be actionable allies to people of color, men can be allies to women, cis people can be allies to members of the LGBTQ+ community, able-bodied people can be allies to those with different abilities, economically privileged people can be allies to those who are not and so on.

Allyship is a lifelong process of building relationships based on trust and accountability with marginalised individuals and/or groups of people. It is not self-defined: work and efforts must be recognised by those you are seeking to ally with — an opportunity to grow and learn about ourselves, whilst building confidence in others.

Led a cross-functional team of brilliant D&I pioneers on the activation of allies and gamification of allyship education, from awareness and tolerance all the way to action and advocacy, supported every step along the way.

Case, project and programme management of the entire employee lifecycle and benefits portfolio across EMEA. Over 4.5 years in this role, I changed areas of expertise a whopping seven times, so change management became my best companion.

Main focus areas included country ownership (ranging from the Middle East, Africa and Eastern Europe to DACH, the EMEA HQ and our mature markets); Googler Experience; exceptions management and cross-functional collaboration; health, long-term disability and death; physical, mental, emotional, financial and digital wellbeing; information security; onboarding & offboarding; HR systems, data and insights; and coaching & mentoring.

In the diversity & inclusion space, I narrowed my core to initiatives in benefits equity, inclusive team dynamics, belonging, allyship and extensive work with our employee resource groups.

Let's grab a cuppa and chat!
