A Nice Idea Every Day
Guest Posting 31 May – 4 June 2010
A Nice Idea Every Day is German creative duo Vivien Weyrauch and Fabian Röttger. Residing in Berlin, they have worked together since 2007 and originally studied cinematography, quickly becoming more interested in directing their our own work, inspired by their love of pop-music and films.
They are passionate about photography and use it as a tool to quickly sketch out and realise ideas, but are equally at ease developing more complex concepts. Their work is predominantly about ideas and emotions and are constantly looking to create something that both surprises and moves the viewer.

Tell us a good fact
V: Boeings only have 2x 600W headlights to see, that’s kind of low-budget.
