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 particular claim to fame is that it applies the same high aesthetic standards to SERVICE PRODUCTIONS and commissioned work as it does to its independent projects. Our particular strength lies in our breadth of expertise: extensive experience in directing actors also benefits image films, sophisticated documentary tools enable us to make clear decisions in challenging shooting situations, and a youthful music video aesthetic also brings a contemporary feel to scenic works. We are interested in new technologies – and so, despite all ethical reservations, we have begun to integrate AI video generation into our film productions.. We are happy to consider videos in terms of their potential reach and always keep an eye on parallel evaluation in social media. 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.
