The Berlinale Trailer

Uli M Schueppel (www.schueppel-films.de) directed numerous internationally awarded fiction films (e.g. planet alex, Vaterland) and documentaries (e.g. The Road to God Knows Where, Frozen Stories, The Day). His films The Place, BerlinSong, and Off Ways (Elektrokohle) have been screened in the official programme of Berlinale (Forum / Panorama). Since the original version in 2002 Uli M Schueppel has varied the trailer in details annually.

As composers, producers, engineers and programmers Xaver von Treyer (supersoulproductions.com) and Johannes Koeniger (panambient.com) have been involved in countless projects. Their musical and audio-technical input is much sought after in music productions, commercials and scores for films: Heaven, Goodbye Lenin, Run Lola Run, and a wide range of commercial and music clips. Under the name of Raccoon Brothers and In Sate Of Flux they release their own records and are present in the club scene as DJs and performers.

ARRI produces the popular Berlinale trailer in all necessary versions and formats. The trailer conceived by director Uli M Schueppel is shown before all film screenings at the festival. The music composed by Xaver von Treyer and Johannes Koeniger remains the recognizable melody of the “Kosslick Berlinale”. Since 2011, there also is a 3D version of the trailer.
