History

Ambient was founded in 1999 by Holger Tappe and Stefan Mischke. [1] Initially focused on advertising (commercials for Volkswagen, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Deutsche Messe AG (CeBIT). Eventually, they moved to CGI animation for motion pictures. The debut feature was "Back to Gaya" in 2004, the first CGI motion picture produced in Germany. Followed by Impy's Island, Impy's Wonderland and Animals United which all were produced and directed by Holger Tappe. Animals United, based upon the novel of Erich Kästner, was the first 3D stereoscopic animation motion picture in Germany. Subsequent animation motion pictures were "The Secret of Balthasar Castle", produced for Europa-Park, the motion-capture animation motion picture Tarzan for Constantin-Film and The Time Caroussel, as well a 4D CGI production for Europa-Park. Movies made by Ambient Entertainment have been distributed to more than 70 countries.
