WE ARE A BERLIN BASED FILM PRODUCTION
AND MAKE GOOD FILMS FOR GOOD PROJECTS
We are an established Berlin-based film and video production company that specialises in good films for good projects. Our portfolio includes commercial image films, social media campaigns for TikTok and Instagram, journalistic work, science communication, award-winning music videos, documentaries and feature-length films. We work for cinema and television, NGOs, foundations, associations, universities and international corporations such as UNIVERSAL MUSIC, ENGAGEMENT GLOBALE and TESLA (before Elon went crazy).
For some years now, the special focus of our work has been the international production of videos for clients who care about the well-being of our society. Be it through social standards, fair trade or generally through sustainable and socially responsible behaviour. We are committed to an equal, free and fair society.
We make good films for good projects.
ABOUT US
SILENTFILM's special claim is to realize the same high aesthetic standards in SERVICE PRODUCTIONS or commissioned work as in our freelance projects. Our particular strength lies in our bandwidth: a lot of experience in acting is also good for image films, a mature documentary toolkit allows us to make clear decisions in demanding shooting situations, a young music video aesthetic also makes scenic works contemporary. We are interested in new technologies - and so we have started to integrate AI video generation into our film productions. We like to look at videos in terms of their potential reach and always have a parallel evaluation in social media in mind. With our young social media team, we give you a fresh aesthetic and young international filmmakers a chance to showcase their talent.
Our Creative Director Heiko Aufdermauer studied film directing at the renowned Konrad Wolf Academy of Film and Television in Babelsberg and has also been teaching at an international art academy in Berlin for several years. With shooting experience of over 500 projects (as producer, director, D.O.P. or author), he is just as rooted in narrative film as he is in internationally successful experimental works.

We produce videos for TINK
We now use the social media channels of smart home expert Tink. We regularly supply YouTube in particular with moderately budgeted promotional videos and product presentations. The various playout options (on Insta, YouTube, etc.), contact with major customers such as Amazon, Husqvarna and Nuki and work with AI image generators are interesting.

AI-generated music video in planning
This summer, we are shooting a partially AI-generated music video for singer-songwriter TUBI that will always look realistic - but with visual possibilities that were previously only available to Hollywood studios.

Despite all the justified ethical reservations - for us as film producers, AI opens up incredible possibilities that we...
