ABOUT ME
photo by: Jean-Ferry
Hello,
my name is Michael Klich aka Woosterhousen, i am a film and stage-show director based in Berlin.
Over the last fifteen years, I have been working as a live event director for international opening receptions and award shows.
So I´m quite familiar with the pressure of leading a huge team, having exactly one attempt to succeed, and communicating with the clients at the same time.
I worked as a trained actor and still as an acting teacher and coach.
One of my first intentions is to relax actors and models and guide them into an authentic, strong performance.
Since I am a child of two clowns and was a professional circus artist in my early twenties,
I know a lot about physical action, stunts, and the craft of comedy timing.
I love to work with children
and have been teaching acrobatics to little kids every day since 2004.
Over the years, I have been staging two dozen acrobatic shows with more than forty kids.
I´m skilled in After Effects and Cinema 4D, and I work as a art college lecturer in Berlin.
So know more than just the basics of the digital post-production process, greenbox shots and editing.
This makes me capable to do motion graphics, CGI and compositing for my projects.
