Robert Tewes and Boris Schepker head Markenfilm Berlin
The increasing importance of Berlin as the creative center in Germany is reflected by the new Managing Directors: Boris Schepker and Robert Tewes.
The location is also new: from November onwards they’ll be working out of a former bakery factory situated in the center of Berlin, next to the universally liked Soho House.
Boris Schepker, former Head of TV Germany for DDB Tribal, has accumulated over 20 years of work experience. Robert Tewes, previously based at the Markenfilm Head Office in Wedel, was responsible for key accounts such as Mercedes Benz.
Boris Schepker: „The good thing about the Berlin location is the international people – which is unique in Germany. Consequently we offer a portfolio not commonly available. We recruit unbelievably strong, creative personnel due to the growing market.“
However it is more important to speak the same language as the creatives. Robert Tewes: „In our I’ll call it „Boutique Markenfilm Berlin“ we come straight to the point due to our reduced hierarchy.
Together with his managing partner Schepker, Tewes will increase production for the digital world. „We don’t only want to satisfy a couple of nerds from Kreuzkoelln but also generate sales. Everyone talks about full-service but, together with Markenfilm Crossing, we have a partner who, in the area of digital production, is a technical and visual front-runner in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.“
