Gerhard Maier
Artistic Director & Head Of Programme, Co-Founder of Seriencamp , Germany

After working with the film and TV industry for over a decade, where he escorted movies and series through their life cycles by writing press books, articles and reviews as well as editing two of Germany’s largest point-of-sale entertainment publications, Gerhard put his life-long obsession with TV series to better use as part of the founding trio of Seriencamp ‒ Germany’s first festival dedicated exclusively to serial storytelling. 

As Artistic Director and Head of Programme of the Seriencamp Festival and Seriencamp Conference, Gerhard is curating formats, finding speakers and programming topics. When he is not working on Seriencamp or curating for conferences like the Reeperbahn Festival, he is a guest lecturer at film schools and training programs.
