1979, gained international experience at an early age. He spent his childhood and youth in the USA, Germany and other parts of the world, which shaped his fascination for foreign cultures and unconventional perspectives.\u00a0<\/p><p>Without any formal training, Maxim began his journey in the creative industry in 1993. With the support of mentors and through continuous learning, he worked his way through various areas of the digital world. From designing TV websites, he developed into a project manager at renowned internet agencies. In 1999, he was given the opportunity to work as a junior art director - a challenge he accepted with enthusiasm. In the following years, he developed into a creative director and worked for various international agencies, which shaped his further development.<\/p><p>His practical experience later enabled Maxim to work as a guest lecturer. There, he was not only able to share his knowledge, but also learn from the fresh perspectives of the students - an experience that furthered his personal and professional development.<\/p><p>After his early successes in the digital world, Maxim broadened his creative horizons. Driven by curiosity and the desire to discover new things, Maxim ventured into the world of photography and the music industry.<\/p><p>As a photographer for music magazines, he discovered his passion for visual stories. Working with numerous well-known musicians, including many icons of his youth, opened the door to music video production, where he was able to get to know various aspects of film production. Here he discovered his passion for moving images and took on a variety of roles from directing and cinematography to editing and visual effects. These experiences awakened in him the desire to extend his talent in designing static images to the creation of moving images and fantastic worlds.<\/p><p>The desire to realize his own creative visions led to the founding of a film and post-production company with offices in Berlin and Los Angeles. Here, Maxim was not only able to expand his skills and learn from the talents of his colleagues, but also live out his passion for visual effects and develop his skills as a producer and director in numerous projects. Maxim later used his diverse experience to support publishers in their digital transformation as part of his agency work.<\/p><p>Over the years, Maxim initiated further projects, including the spirits manufacturer UNKNOWN Lands | Spirits, where he created his own gin, among other things, and his own design agency u.now media. Each of these ventures brought new challenges and valuable learning opportunities.<\/p><p>After almost 30 years in the design and film industry, it is time for Maxim to dedicate himself to new challenges and passions. He is now focusing on storytelling in various formats. He shares his experiences in the podcasts \"The Gin High Tea\" and \"Echoes of Neverland - Beyond the Norm\". He is currently working enthusiastically on a series of young adult fantasy novels, an area that presents him with new creative challenges every day and feeds his enthusiasm for storytelling.<\/p><p>Throughout all his projects, Maxim strives to combine visual design with innovative thinking and his passion for storytelling in different media. He combines creative versatility with entrepreneurial skills, making him a multi-faceted author and creative. For Maxim, the joy of creative work and the desire to inspire people are paramount. As a lifelong learner, he always remains open to new ideas and perspectives, grateful for the support and inspiration he has received from colleagues, mentors and those around him. His diverse experiences inform all of his projects as he continually explores new avenues of artistic expression.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maxim Matthew, 1979 in Berlin geboren, sammelte schon fr\u00fch internationale Erfahrungen.
