ABSTRACT
Tony Loeser was born in Liverpool in 1953 but raised in GDR (East Germany), where he worked as a stop frame cameraman at DEFA Studios Babelsberg. After reunification, he became a producer and founded MotionWorks, a production company based in Halle in Lower Saxony. He did TV series as well as feature films that all aimed at a young audience. The biggest barrier for all people who are creative is the increasing administration in the media. It gets more and more complicated to raise funds. Everything is being bureaucratized. Some bloated machinery has been built up. And the more money they spent for this bureaucracy, the less is available for the creative aspects of production. Unproductive work soaks up parts of the budget that doesn't go into production. Decision-making processes are slowed down and delayed over periods of 1 to 1.5 year.
