Director: Uli Pförtner
A classical humanistic education at school and studies of art and music, with emphasis on film and TV in Frankfurt/Main, laid the foundation for the entrance to the world of film production. Working freelance in large advertising agencies and production companies Uli Pförtner gained technical and creative experience in all genres: Feature film, image and advertising films, animation and documentaries.
He continued as author (‚Das Haus - Poesie des Verfalls') initially for ARD (hr, mdr, wdr) and ZDF. Wildlife and nature form a focus point – although not the only one - in the works of the author and director. He made significant contributions for the first (and for a long time only) regional nature series in German TV, ‚Service:Natur' (hr). Numerous films and documentaries emerged also for WDR (‚Heimisches Wild - Tiere ohne Lobby', ‚Brücken zur Welt'). With his GILDE - film & tv produktion, Braunfels" the author and director is time and again his own camera man and producer.
