Early life an education

[edit]

Philip Georg Käßbohrer was born in Biberach an der Riß on 30 October 1983. After graduating from the gymnasium Pestalozzi-Gymnasium Biberach in 2004, he began a three-year audio-visual media designer apprenticeship with German public broadcasting organisation Südwestrundfunk. From 2007 until 2014, Käßbohrer studied Film and Television at Academy of Media Arts Cologne.[1]

Career

[edit]

In 2006, Käßbohrer began directing and working on screenplays for television shows, such as his feature film Das Problem des Schnellstfluges.[2] Later, Käßbohrer directed music videos for Get Well Soon and Le Corps Mince de Françoise.[3] In 2012, he wrote and directed the Arte film Armadingen.[4]

Following Armadingen, Käßbohrer and his classmate Matthias Murmann began working on a concept for a late-night talk show featuring Jan Böhmermann and Charlotte Roche. The show, broadcast on ZDFkultur, was met with generally favourable reviews,[5][6] and received a nomination for the 2012 Grimme-Preis. Eventually, Käßbohrer and Murmann were awarded the 2012 Deutscher Fernsehpreis's Förderpreis, and founded the film production company bildundtonfabrik.[7]

From 2013 until 2019, Käßbohrer was the executive producer of bildundtonfabrik's late-night talk show Neo Magazin, hosted by Jan Böhmermann.[8] The show aired on ZDFneo from 2013 until 2015, and has been aired on ZDF since 2015.[9]

From 2014 until 2017, Philipp Käßbohrer was the executive producer of the WDR comedy show Die unwahrscheinlichsten Ereignisse im Leben von ...,[10] and the infotainment show Mr. Dicks - Das erste wirklich subjektive Gesellschaftsmagazin that aired on 1Live and EinsFestival.[11] Throughout the mid-2010s, Käßbohrer directed music videos such as Get Well Soon - It's Love and Maeckes - Gettin' Jiggy With it.[12][13]

Since 2017, Käßbohrer has been producing the comedy show Kroymann, aired on ARD. The show is hosted by Maren Kroymann, who satirically discusses social topics and problems.[14]

Starting in 2018, Käßbohrer and several other screenwriters began working on the screenplay for the first six episodes of the Netflix show How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast).[15] Käßbohrer and Murmann have been the show's executive producers. The first season aired in 2019; season two and three followed in 2020 and 2021 respectively.[16][17]

Also in 2018, Käßbohrer co-created WDR's online platform docupy, which includes documentary films on sociopolitical topics, directed by him.[18]

In March 2020, during the first German COVID-19-lockdown, Käßbohrer created and produced the 15-episode comedy show Drinnen – im Internet sind alle gleich that aired on ZDFmediathek and ZDFneo. It featured Lavinia Wilson, Jana Pallaske, Barnaby Metschurat, and Victoria Trauttmansdorff. The show was not recorded in a film studio, instead, the actors recorded themselves at home using bildundtonfabrik equipment that was sent to them by mail.[19][20]

Since 2020, Käßbohrer has been the executive producer of Die Carolin Kebekus Show.[21] In 2021, Käßbohrer co-produced the documentary film Shiny Flakes: The Teenage Drug Lord about Maximilian Schmidt.
