WELCOME STACY WALL
With a uniquely artful directing style Stacy is a DGA award winning filmmaker who welcomes and thrives on creative challenges. He’s directed countless spots in his native US and the UK; each one looking effortlessly curated but the work that he puts into the casting, the dialogue and the characterisation is what makes Stacy’s work feel so true, natural, and absolutely on the money, time and time again.
Born in Germany, Stacy moved to North Carolina during his formative years and graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
After college, Stacy spent nine years at Wieden+Kennedy in Portland as copywriter and then creative director on Nike and ESPN before transitioning to directing commercials full time.
Stacy launched Imperial Woodpecker in NYC in 2009; a company dedicated to ‘Producing the last TV commercial ever made’ with an unequaled reputation with clients and industry peers as an adept and collaborative company that consistently creates engaging, hugely effective work.
Some of Stacy’s more recent projects include Uber Eats, McDonald’s, EE, Coca Cola/Premier League and Google.

WELCOME MAX FISHER
A whirlwind of energy, Max is an award winning filmmaker with a bold and intimate style. He is a natural storyteller with an ability to build strong relationships, which allow him to draw great performances from contributors from all walks of life. His work is noted for its strong visual style.
A director well known for his emotional storytelling, Max has an enviable reputation for crafting powerful, memorable films for clients including Red Cross, Lloyds, The Royal Navy, Nike and CALM.
Max makes films with a lot of heart that always connect with the audience. His most recent example of this is The Last Photo for CALM, a sensitive and moving film for the charity. This incredible and highly revered film has resulted in Max winning multiple prestigious awards including Campaign Big, Kinsale Grand Prix, Shots and 1.4.
His most recent short, Small Change, elevates a simple premise into a thought-provoking comment on morality and redemption – with laugh-out-loud moments. It’s won Best British Short at the London International Short Film Festival.
His talent for drawing great performances has been honed by his extensive long form documentary experience; films such as ‘The Street Kids World Cup’, ‘The Wrestlers’ and ‘Kids Behind Bars’ have all received widespread critical acclaim and awards.
Max moved from directing long from TV to commercials and has recently shot major campaigns for brands such as Boots, Nike, VW, Amex, Samsung, Lloyds Bank, Tesco and The Royal Navy.
A former youth worker, Max is particularly adept at working with young people. He is just as gifted when collaborating with celebrities and sports stars – from Lebron James through to Lily Allen.

WELCOME MATILDA FINN
ZAUBERBERG WELCOMES MATILDA FINN
To start the week off right, we would like to announce that Matilda Finn has just joined the Zauberberg family!
Matilda Finn is a director other directors talk about. Her distinctive visual style and surreal aesthetic has made her into one of the most sought-after artists of her generation. Her work seems otherworldly and makes one scramble for comparisons because it’s oddly familiar and yet unlike anything ever seen. Hence our first question to her was: “Which planet are you from?”. Her answer: “I’m not sure to be honest”. That’s her: Real, imaginative, to the point.
Her collaborations with artists such as The Weeknd, Jay Rock, Danny Brown, Bicep, Brodinski, Bob Moses, Bipolar Sunshine, and Apparat have garnered numerous awards and recognitions over the years. Having been nominated for Best Director at the UK Music Video Awards in 2019, after consecutively winning Best New Director in 2017 and 2018, the awards continued: Gold at Kinsale Sharks 2019, Shots New Director of the Year 2019 and Gold at Ciclope 2020. Her commercials have won numerous awards throughout 2021/2022 and Finn was named in the top ten directors of the year in Campaign Magazine 2022.
Matilda is a multidisciplinary artist: Director, Photographer, Creative Director with a unique voice and pragmatic clarity of vision. And she’s fantastic to talk to. You can’t ask for more.

WELCOME MARK ZIBERT
What an exciting week!
We’d love to announce another fantastic addition to our family!
The incredibly talented Mark Zibert!
Cyclist, snowboarder, photographer, DoP and director, Mark’s been shooting professionally from the age of 23, when he won his first Nike campaign and since then he’s been constantly evolving into both a highly acclaimed stills photographer and one of the most sought-after commercials directors in his home country of Canada.
Mark has collaborated with Toronto’s SickKids Foundation, directing and co-writing all their films since they launched their fundraising efforts. Each of these incredibly moving and beautifully crafted calls to arms has a powerful visual concept – and are part of the biggest fundraising effort in Canadian Healthcare history. The campaign resulted in the charity achieving their goal of the building of a brand-new state-of-the art children’s hospital.
Whether he’s making extraordinarily powerful films for NPO’s like the Royal Ontario Museum, Food Banks Canada, MAID or SickKids – shooting visceral action sequences for Walmart, Nike and Kruger or beautiful narrative storytelling for Ikea; Mark goes the extra mile, lighting all his own work and operating the camera – often from a moving hoverboard, to shoot fast and keep it spontaneous. With an incredible work ethic, he’s uniquely focused on exactly what he needs to get the best out of actors and non-actors alike whilst still making each frame look as beautiful as a still photograph.
Mark’s won multiple awards for his ads in Canada and at Cannes – and being obsessed with sports and competition himself, has made him the obvious choice to shoot many of the world’s top athletes. His Adidas campaign for the Beijing Olympics won China its first Cannes Gold and was named Photography Campaign of the Year at the prestigious Lucie Awards NY.

I am whole
What makes us feel whole? How is life orchestrated? And who does the conducting? I am older, but am I wiser?
In Bianca Poletti s newest short film we follow the thoughts of a youthful heroin which is moved by fundamental questions circulating around having sex for the first time. In the most sensitive, beautiful way we are drawn into the intense perception of her emotional world with her thoughts spinning around love, sex and the affections of her body.
„Have you done it yet?“ is the recurring question of her friends which is echoing in her mind. Here is where fear of the unknown and euphoria collide, expressed in poetic phrases like this:
„My flesh is made of questions and if I touch someone
will i feel answers?“
Bianca Poletti created a heartfelt coming-of-age-story that visualizes a girl’s way of finding her own voice while struggling with the pressures from her peers of growing up too fast.

“A Dark Moment Of Faith”
Here it is! Our very own Zornitsa Dimitrova gives us “A Dark Moment Of Faith”.
Today is the perfect day to release her stunning project, since the 25th of November marks “The International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women”. It shines a light on the powerful role of women’s rights movements in preventing gender-based violence since 1981.
Zoris short film “A Dark Moment of Faith” deals with exactly that.
It tells the story of Vicky, a young woman desperate to make enough money to pay for her deceased mother’s funeral. Through her frantic quest to meet these financial needs, she starts to sell herself and experiences several abusive encounters along this path. Her situation seems hopeless until she meets Vasco.
The film is filled with emotion from the very start. It is sad, it is romantic, it is unsettling in just the right way.
Zornitsa takes her audience on a journey, that convinces with stunning visuals, an exceptionally well played out true story and leaves them shook with the ending.
“A Dark Moment of Faith” gives an insight into the sad and grueling reality of abuse and exploitation that many women face around the world.
The short film has garnered several well-known awards like Berlin Commercial, YDA, Porsche Awards, CLIO and 1.4 Awards, as well as numerous nominations (D&AD, EMEA Shots, Ciclope – to name a few).
It was developed as part of Zoris education at the Film Academy Baden Württemberg and generally a roller-coaster ride with plenty of unexpected challenges, that were mastered brilliantly by a very committed crew.
Congratulations to our talented Zori and the entire team, who worked extremely hard to breathe life into “A Dark Moment of Faith” especially during the uncertain times of Covid.
(TW: The film contains signs of sexual assault, abuse, sexism & misogyny.)

WELCOME ZORNITSA DIMITROVA
Here she is! Zornitsa is a German-based director and a graduate from the Film Academy in Ludwigsburg, Baden-Württemberg. With her diploma short film “A Dark Moment of Faith” she won several awards at renowned commercial festivals such as D and AD, Young Director Award in Cannes Lions, 1.4 the Award Show, Shots Awards EMEA, Clio, Berlin Commercial etc.

If you look closely, you will discover a hidden middle finger in every film of hers.

WELCOME CARL SUNDEMO
WELCOME CARL SUNDEMO
It’s another week full of amazing announcements and new friendships.
The newest Zauberberg family member is the amazing Carl Sundemo.
Carl Sundemo’s work has been called ”stupid ideas presented in a serious way,” and over the years he has built an oppressive interest for how crafted film worlds can be used in unusual ways. His films often play with known genres and troupes in advertising and other narratives, to great comedic effect.
As an ad school graduate from Sweden, Carl jumped straight into directing commercials and his interest for story development has since placed him on the board of the Screenwriter Program at the Higher Vocational Education in Sweden.
Over the course of his career, he has worked with agencies such as Wieden+Kennedy, CALLEN, CP+B, Virtue, Carmichael Lynch, Social Club Paris, FCB, Saatchi&Saatchi, SMFB and BBDO. Hopefully he hasn’t damaged the reputation of too many brands he’s worked with, such as Liquid Death, Betty Crocker, Bush’s Baked Beans, LG, KIA, Milka and Comedy Central to name a few.

WELCOME JAKOB GRUNERT
We are proud to announce that Jakob Grunert joined the Zauberberg family!
His viral for Edeka „Supergeil“ for which he also co-wrote the song introduced him to the world of advertising. Kind of accidentally, because music was definitely his first love. He studied visual arts in Hamburg and completed a film degree at Pratt Institute in New York.
He was the secret member of a mysterious band and has worked as a film composer, including various „Tatort“ episodes and „Nebenan“ by Daniel Brühl. His two solo albums remain insider’s tips.
In 2011 he co-wrote and directed the great and weird musical “Icke – die Oper” at Volksbühne Berlin.
He has directed many music videos for the likes of Marteria, Seeed, Solomun feat. Jamie Foxx and others.
Jakob is a true creative vending machine. tons of ideas, while his foot is tapping to the rhythm.

D&AD Pencil Winners

SHE IS THE MUSIC
Here it is!
We could not wait to share this very special project with all of you!
Mercedes Benz & She Is The Music decided to team up with the LEGEND herself, the one and only Alicia Keys !
In order to celebrate women in music and to address the underrepresentation of female musicians, producers, engineers and writers, they invited female musicians to the famous Jungle Studios in New York City and asked them to re-imagine songs from her newest album „KEYS”.
The whole process was documented by the amazing director, DoP, photographer and our friend Cheryl Dunn who handled 16 cameras at the same time, with every film material imaginable.
Thanks to our lovely client and agency Antoni – we had an insanely good time with you and the energy this project brought is still deeply in our bones. If you are interested in more of what She is the music does, check out their website and social media!

Voices
“VOICES” isn’t a film for one presidential candidate or another. It’s a film for democracy. It aims to motivate Americans to vote – by illustrating the risk of not exercising that right. Low voter turnout and increasingly close election results in the United States mean that 25-30% of the voting-age population is determining things for 100% of the country. There are so many burning issues right now – issues that are shaking our country to the core. We simply can’t afford to sit this election out. It’s more important than ever to vote – to make yourself heard. “VOICES” is a private go-vote initiative developed by Matthew Branning, an American advertising creative, in collaboration with film director Björn Rühmann and DoP Kolja Brandt. This 90-second online film was produced by Zauberberg Productionsand brought to life with sound design and original music by California Music. Featured on shots and LBB.
