During the summer slump our main focus is working on 'Hayfield' and 'Vive la jeunesse, vive l'amour'.

July

At the moment we are in the post production stage for the short movie 'Hayfield' and the radio play 'Vive la jeunesse, vive l'amour'. The delivery of the DVD 'Tribute Movie 2: Matthias Kaufmann' starts soon, after we held the release premiere in England end of June. Furthermore we keep on working on our new musical hit 'Death and all his friends'!

About us

    Since December 2003 we are producing music and videos under the title 'JPS Productions'. Accidentially originated during a joint cooking session on December 29th 2003, we have since then - especially in cooperation with the music school in Hilden - realised a large number of movies, mainly documentations of music school activities.
    Aside to that it is still a great concern of us to also work on self-contained projects. Besides soloprojects such as "Road To The Abitur" - the film of the graduation class 2006 of Hilden's DBG - and "A Lesson In The Life Of Thomas Brunner" - a film by the latin class of 2007's graduation class of the HGH - especially our motion picture "Men In Pink", on which we have worked since March 2004 and which has become a very personal opus with a paramount importance to us, has to be named.
    In the last month We were mainly working on contributions for several short film festivals, such as the video contest of the ZEITmagazine 'Leben', where we have been awarded the second price. Besides that we are closely working together with the band Traffic Light Blue.

    At the moment we are producing the DVD of the concert Symphonic Rock 2008 and are also working on several other projects, which are basically still in the planning phase.
