I am a audio- and videojournalist and worked in different parts of the world for the biggest german media companies like ARD, ZDF and Deutsche Welle. I created a multimedia-report in weightlessness during a parabolic flight in france and filmed with hard working children in stonemines of kenya and about developing sports programmes in Ghana f.e. Flexibility, knowledge of human nature and technical understanding are three of my largest prejudices. But the most important is probably: curiosity ;) You can check out some of my works here: www.martinpieck.com At the moment it is mostly in German language. Just check the REFERENZEN-area. Cheers
