action concept – Company – The Profile
More Than Entertainment
action concept is one of the largest full-service film production companies for action formats. Founded in 1992, action concept and its up to 300 employees and freelancers produce TV-highlights for German and international TV channels.
Under the leadership of founder and CEO Hermann Joha in-house productions like the TV action series "Alarm for Cobra 11 - the Highway Patrol", "The Clown" and "112 - Lifesavers" are developed. Likewise made-for-TV movies like "Lasko - In the Name of the Vatican" and "Final Contract" are produced in English for both the German and international market.
Special attention is given to the stunts in action concept productions - developed and realized by a specially trained team of stunt professionals (from stunt directors, stunt coordinators, stunt men and women to the special effects crew, action-sequence-experienced cameramen, helicopter pilots and finally...)
The action concept specialists are booked as 2nd unit stunt team (productions like "Crazy Race", the Bollywood movie "Aap Kaa Surror", commercial spots and music videos) as well as for performing special action events (like action driver training).
action concept not only unites the development and production departments but also the complete post production (editing, visual effects and sound design). This means the company can provide an in-house service from start to finish.
This strategy has proved very successful, which can be concluded from the fact that action concept is the only company worldwide that has been awarded the "Taurus World Stunt Award" five times in a row.
The company's thrilling series, made-for-TV movies and cinema productions have been prime time successes in more than one hundred countries.
