Michael Rösel - Director

Michael loves storytelling and humour. Since he grew up in a little town nearby Nürnberg he was fascinated by films, books and graphic novels. He studied film and media at the university Hildesheim. Doing an internship at the Roman Kuhn film production while his studies, he discovered THE possibility to combine comedy, comic style and film in a short and fast paced mixture: commercials! After graduating with a diploma he consequently pursued his growing interest in commercials and studied directing advertising film at the renowned Filmakademie in Ludwigsburg. His diploma spots won several prices - for example: ADC Nachwuchswettbewerb, VDW-Award, Catch 52, Porsche-Nachwuchspreis, Kurz & Schön, etc. Since than Michael is directing commercials and image films for various national and international film productions, like Mercedes-Benz, Microsoft, DFB, Chupa Chups, Haribo, Vitana and others. Some of his productions got several nominations and prizes at the New York Festivals, he also won prizes at he World Media Festival, the Ottocar and Deutscher Wirtschaftsfilmpreis. Besides he directed a tv series and is right now producing his debut feature film for the german TV station SWR, which will be - of course - a comic-adaption!
