BIOGRAPHY

Born and raised in Göttingen, Steffen Alberding took a strong interest in both theatre and film already in his school days. Ten years as a member of a prize-winning amateur drama group, a few short and experimental films and various internships within film and TV-industry at last earned him a matriculation at Baden-Württemberg film academy, where he chose directing as his major subject. Since 2008 Steffen Alberding specialises in advertising film, yet still aspiring to process his dark way of perception in fictional works.
