Claudia Bitzer : MAZDA, T-SYSTEMS, LEXUS, ...

The New Year for Peer BRECHT started off with lots of panache and many jobs. From mid-January until mid-February he photographed ad motifs for JWT and client MAZDA in South Africa (and he was also involved in the post production). The collaboration with CD Norbert Andrup and art buyers Annette Endraß and Katja Bonnert was a lot of fun and brought fantastic results. Back from South Africa he shot a motif for T-SYSTEMS in Germany, then he returned to South Africa to produce five image motifs for RTS Rieger Team and bathroom fittings manufacturer HANSA. The *waterfall, rapids, modern and traditional fountains* and *pebbles in the sea* motifs show the exact reflection of the water flow from five different taps, which can also be found in nature. The project was supervised by AD Tatiana van Houten and art buyer Sabine Walz. After a short trip to Chicago, where Peer photographed a fashion motif, he is now on the way to Portugal for a top secret car shoot. We should also mention Peer's distinction in the new BFF BOOK. He received a merit in the Architecture/Industrial category. The year also got off to a good start for Christian SCHMIDT: He shot motifs in the USA for both LEXUS and MICHELIN. Then he travelled to Southern Spain for Pepperzak Brand Hamburg and client DPD. Christian (despite being ill) was able to prove his talents, with the help of the extremely friendly and very competent team, made up of AD Hubertus Hagen, freelance art buyer Sabina Sanz and producer Hans Dornseif from Contra Production. Together with recom in Stuttgart he added the finishing touches and four motifs, typical of Christian's work, of impressive landscapes were produced. We also have two of the five Vaillant motifs by Christian, which he photographed at the end of 2004 for BMZ + more. The whole team incl. CD Claus Lieck and AB Bettina Tetens are happy about the distinction as branch winners in the annual book of advertisement 2005. Plus Christian Schmidt also received two silver awards in the BFF Book 2005 for his Jaguar roads in the Transportation category. New to Claudia Bitzer is the Dutch landscape and car photographer Oscar van de BEEK. For several years, Oscar worked for none other than Martijn Oort - a period during which he describes as inspiring. The pictures speak for themselves. Since the start of the year he has been active on the German ad market with his own portfolio and support from Claudia Bitzer.
