| after sunflowers i moved back into the produktion process at lowe&partners frankfurt. the head of tv, meike rübesam took me under her wings and i was grateful for the opportunity to visit a great number of post produktion facilities and studios during my time as her assistant. i also produced a short radio programme and went through intensive reel2reel and avid editing training while at the frankfurt hq. the biggest project during that time was a commercial for vauxhall tigra with the famous german swimmer franzi van almsik, seeing her submerge into the boiling ny asphalt. fun! |
