Fascination Media.
About Birk Ruhsam.

Birk looks back on a total of 8 years of education in the field of media and communication. He spent 5 years at a vocational high school in Biedermannsdorf and 3 years in content production and digital media management at the FHWien der WKW. More and more he developed a solid knowledge and practical understanding of how media works. In his final academic thesis, he intensively studied the dramaturgy and structure of journalistic documentary film and then applied the most effective principles in practice.

At the age of 12, he and his friends started making their own feature films - more precisely, action films in the style of the old Bond movies. At that time they already great importance to effective staging, storytelling and computer-generated effects. The motivation for this was strongly intrinsic. For him, this still accounts for the fascination of film production today: That the work is not perceived as work, but as a joint contribution that arises from an intrinsic motivation. And it is precisely this approach that is then reflected in the final product.

 

Theory & practice.

My drive.
About the endless possibilites of new media.

I am convinced that media, and in particular the moving image, have a tremendous influence on the human psyche. This influence is often underestimated and media are perceived as something trivial. But it is precisely through advertising, films and popular series that all social standards, norms and socially accepted behaviors are subconsciously conveyed.

Therefore, it is especially important for the medium of film to proceed very cautiously and to be aware of this responsibility. With the knowledge of how film and media work, it is possible to create attractive content and get maximum target group response.
