I am the guy on the left side, just to be safe you catch the right one. That´s me Holger.
Born and raised in Constance, south-west Germany. I worked intense ten years in gastronomy as a waiter, bar tender, managing director of a club, you name it. After graduating from the school of international marketing WAK (Westdeutsche Akademie für Kommunikation) in Cologne, I worked for a variety of advertisement agencies. Different world, but funky as well.
I moved to the production department in a commercial film production and produced commercials for major brands.
in 2000 I founded the independent art-house production company DISCOFILM with my partners and friends Arne Ludwig, Daniel Hetzer, Felix Blum, Till Franzen and Peter Pedaci. We produced two award winning full-length feature films: „STATUS YO!“ and „DIE BLAUE GRENZE“, plus one full-length documentary „THE BIG SELLOUT“ which won the german Grimme Preis and international awards. But we have not made any money.
In 2005/2006 I worked as a Creative Producer for ACTION CONCEPT.
In 2007 I started my new production company HolgerHage filmproduction, directing and producing commercials, image films,EPK´s and music clips. When I started I shot a whole bunch of films myself. directing, camera and edit/postproduction. This was the best education I could have to use and know the fully equipped toolbox of a filmmakers tools. From now on I called myself a director.
Since my friends asked me to shoot some cover and press pictures for their new album release and also the music video, my passion to photography became a part of my working life as well.
Through all these years I work with passion as a 1.AD and production manager on various national and international feature films and commercials.
I love it all!
