Contra Service Productions : orang-utan shoot for BRITISH AIRWAYS, ENGELHORN SPORTS, in Chicago for BMW, in Singapore and Dhaka for TÜV SÜD, TVC for CREDIT SUISSE in Hong Kong, ...

The Contra team and photographer Jenny van Sommers flew to South Carolina for BRITISH AIRWAYS. Working with orang-utan male Suryia turned out to be great fun.

The shoot featuring the protected species that is also in danger of becoming extinct was made possible by the Orang-Utan-Foundation. The art director on location for the BBH London agency was Chris Clark.

In July this year, the Contra team took care of the new catalogue production and photographs for ENGELHORN SPORTS's Facebook campaign. The motifs were produced in Boulder, Colorado and the team comprised photographer Fredrik Clement, as well as the agency team of Serviceplan Campaign 1 GmbH from Munich (AB: Katja Tschan-Matschl, AD: Therese Stuessel)

Photographer and GoSee member Thomas von Salomon joined forces with BMW and ended up in Chicago. Also part of the team: art directors Phillip Schlegel and Margit Drescher.

Photographer Bowen Liu and his crew did not stick around in Singapore for too long for the TÜV SÜD campaign. When the first motifs were done, the team travelled on to Dhaka. CONTRA Producer Hans Dornseif was the producer and Strichpunkt, Stuttgart, supervised the whole shebang.

Contra Asia produced the TVCs at four locations in Hong Kong for CREDIT SUISSE. Producer Muriel Dornseif for Contra, Line Producer Gernot Jurisch-Navarro of Bubbles Film (Hamburg) and Director Tim Löhr were all on location.

Some productions also found their way to Europe: In May, Andreas Lind photographed the stills for the new website of EDUCATION FIRST. Contra producer Gabriele Poppelreuther supervised the project in Barcelona.

New ad motifs for ROLF BENZ were produced in Eindhoven, NL. Photographer Bernd Opitz and Producer Gian-Andrea Albin were both on location. The Serviceplan agency from Munich supervised the campaign. Sandra Loible was the art director. Once again, Contra took care of the complete production.
