EP.25 Videography with Felix W.

“Making a video is so much more then nice images… there is so much more behind it.” – Brian


A really fun episode diving into a topic that both Brian and Vinz know a ton about. We were also fortunate to have a guest with us Felix Weise. who is also a young videographer. This episode was recorded in the middle of a video shoot that both Brian Vinzent and Felix were working on. A major theme of this episode is how video production has been changed over the last 15 years.  Brian began working in video production in 2006 and has been involved heavily in many assets of video production ever since. Vinzent and Felix began in 2012 so together a very interesting contrast in the different type of methods and technologies used in video production. This episode was recorded in Brian’s hotel room…. sorry for the echoie audio… while the boys were crushing beers after a long exhausting day of shooting. We hope you enjoy.

As always thanks for listening.

EP. 7: Allgäu LIVE IN

“I will never learn that much again in 3 years…”


Episode 7 is about Allgäu Live In Verlag, a publishing company where Vinzent has completed an internship and his apprenticeship. He had a lot of hard tasks, high responsibilities, little free time and even less daylight! Joking aside – it was also very educational, formative and fun. He met a few people whom he will never forget. Just listen to the episode and see what happened to Young Vinz in the 3 years!

Here is a excerpt from the interview with the statement of Kollegah to Vinz.
Kollegah’s Instagram

In English: So – Vincent, I greet you! And um, I hope you are celebrating a proper bossy birthday. Eighteenth birthday is of course a decent caliber, because you have to deliver. And I also greet all my fans in Kempten and supporters. I’ve never performed in the city – I’m very excited, I’m happy. I’ve been performing live for 11 years and have never been to Kempten before, so I’m sure it’ll be a nice day and I’ll try hard to put down a great show. I am looking forward to the day.

“crackkid.png” – yep this was his application cover for the apprenticeship. At least it was outstanding and creative.

just wtf – how did this kid get the job.

I could not find the pictures from the one-way camera of the farewell party. I’m sorry. Thanks for listening & reading the blog!
