Education | Katja is part-time working Green Consultant für German Public Broadcaster BR /ARD. Since 2013 she has extended the Tolle Idee! network's offer and expertise in the new field of "Green Filmmaking", i.e. consulting, teaching and writing for production companies, broadcasters, institutions, festivals and filmmakers to promote the concept of sustainability in media production. After a year abroad in Great Britain and Italy Katja began Slavonic and English studies and philosophy. She spent six months in Russia and was able to gain first film experiences while making her own documentary film. She also worked as gallery manager at Kunstpavillon in Munich, later for an architect. After graduating from Ludwig-Maximilians-University in Munich she worked as production assistant at megaherz tv GmbH until she joined Odeon Film AG in 1996. There she supported acquisition, production and eventually headed the press and PR department of the whole Odeon Film Group and served as online and IR manager. 2010 she took on the additional remit as sustainability advisor, to insure corporate social and environmental responsibility in film and TV production. This activity then was a novelty in film production and gained importance over the years, likely to become a standard. Katja was PR Manager and Sustainability Consultant for the architectural and consultancy company CSMM - architecture matters. She is certified CSR and Sustainability Manager. Since 2022 she Chair of the Association of Green Consultants in Germany. |
