TV journalism for TV Broadcasting

We produce reports, news, magazine features and TV series - on politics, business, art and culture and current socially relevant topics.

TV magazine report

LäLength up to 6 minutes

For our television productions, we have learnt to develop a dramaturgy in just a few minutes, to tell a story, to convey important facts, to be objective and informative and all of this at a high journalistic level. All of this is also expected of a good TV magazine report.

We use our extensive experience to present current topics from politics, culture and society in an exciting and editorial manner for your programme. We are thorough in our research, bite into a topic until we have got to the bottom of it and orientate ourselves on facts, not fakes. In the words of the journalist and long-time director of the Henri Nannen School of Journalism, Wolf Schneider, who once said “Quality comes from agony”.

TV Report

Length up to 60 minutes

A reportage is emotional, up close and personal. It is always based on in-depth research, precise observations, interviews and commentaries. It mixes the subjective view of the filmmaker with facts and well-prepared information. Viewers become eyewitnesses to a reality depicted on film.

We love television reports because they allow us to immerse ourselves in another world for a longer period of time.

As filmmakers and journalists, we are always on a journey of discovery. The best thing about this journey is being surprised by the stories that life tells.

Dokumentation

Length up to 90 minutes

A film documentary is probably the supreme discipline in journalism. It categorises a topic in a larger context and always maintains an objective view. As with reportage, a documentary requires thorough research.

Sometimes it works additively with archive material, photos and other documents to tell a comprehensive story. Interviews ensure authenticity. Documentaries are closely orientated to current events, but cover a wide range of topics.

In a documentary, we journalists always go on a kind of search for clues and depict what we find. This is also incredible fun, challenges us and sharpens our view of the world.

VIDEO EXAMPLE

45-minute documentary film on the subject of collecting. Three different ‘collectors’ give us an insight into their everyday lives as collectors.

TV series

Length up to 60 minutes

A series always deals with an overarching theme or a conceptual idea. The stories of the individual episodes of a series can be self-contained or build on each other to tell the story over several episodes.

We develop and produce non-fictional TV series for information programmes and we believe that the development of a series today should take cross-media requirements into account.

The TV series we produce are well thought out in terms of content and visuals and we aim to realise all new television productions with new, creative ideas.

»Masterpieces Revisited« – a 10-part television series for Deutsche Welle in which we explored the question of how masterpieces achieve cult status.
