About Henning

Art Director with a focus on motion design and visual communication from Berlin. I work with brands, agencies, and institutions on spatial experiences for award shows, concerts, fashion shows, conferences, retail, and interactive installations.
My current focus is on live communication and large formats, alongside working on branding, visual systems, campaigns, DOOH, or social content. Between stage, installation, and classic digital formats, I develop design systems that are consistently carried across all media.
Previously for KaDeWe, Marc Cain, Versace, AlphaTauri, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, Messe München (Inhorgenta), Red Bull, Universal Music, Reeperbahn Festival, Humboldt Forum, and ZWZW, among others.

My setup covers the entire process, from concept, design, animation, and direction to implementation on set or on-site. Depending on the project, I work independently or assemble suitable teams and pipelines. I take on freelance art direction in agencies and brand teams or join ongoing productions on a project basis when support is needed.
