Stefan Pannen never set out to become a producer. But as an independent director, he repeatedly found himself embroiled in heated discussion with producers regarding the general conditions affecting his films. This was Stefan Pannen’s central motivation in founding the fernsehbüro in 1995. In his role as executive producer, the needs of authors, camera people and cutters are still his main focus today.
