Science Films
from Berlin
Precision and narrative — both, not one or the other.
A good science film takes the facts seriously and still finds a story. We produce research portraits, project and institute films from Berlin: for universities, institutes, foundations and research-driven companies.
Audi "Stories of Greatness" — a portrait of Nobel laureate Shuji Nakamura, inventor of the blue LED.
Formats
Research Portrait
People and their work at the centre — researchers, their questions and why they matter.
Project Film
A research or funded project told clearly — results, impact, next steps.
Institute Film
The profile of an institution in picture and sound — for the website, conferences and recruiting new talent.
Explainer Film
Complex relationships in a few minutes — factually correct and still accessible.
Science film production in Berlin
As a science film production company based in Berlin, we help universities, research institutes, foundations and research-driven companies turn their work into film that people actually watch. Science communication only works when accuracy and storytelling meet: the facts have to be right, but the film also has to hold attention. That balance — precise but never dry — is what we bring to every research film, project film and institute film.
Whether you need a single research portrait, a set of explainer films for a funded project, or an institute film for your website and conferences, we develop the concept together with your researchers, shoot on location where the science happens, and keep review and approval loops built into the process. Berlin is our base, but we film wherever the research takes us — at institutes, labs and locations in Germany and abroad.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a science film?
A film that conveys research, methods or results in an understandable and credible way — as a portrait, project film, institute film or explainer film. Unlike a purely animated explainer video, we work cinematically, with real people and places.
How does a science film project work?
From joint concept development through research and shooting to the edit. We coordinate content and process closely with the researchers and plan approvals in early.
Do you work directly with researchers?
Yes. We get into the subject, check statements with the experts and pay attention to factual accuracy and approvals — without letting the film become academically dry.
Do you also produce outside Berlin?
Berlin is our base; we film where the research takes place — at institutes, labs and locations in Germany and abroad.
