GOOD JOURNEY
The first 12 episodes of the YouTube-podcast hybrid BONJOURNEY were successfully filmed in the past few weeks. Now I still need support in post-production so that the format can appear in its full glory.
About the project
Bonjourney will be a unique interview format broadcast on YouTube and all major podcast platforms. In a total of 12 episodes, each between 1-2 hours, actors, musicians and bands are interviewed in a comfortable motorhome by actor Matthias Weidenhöfer (that’s me). We combine in-depth conversations with comedy elements and live music performances. Previous talk guests: Axel Stein, Ben Münchow, Cristina do Rego, Sabin Tambrea, Tom Beck, Tyron Ricketts, Harris, Mauli, Billion, Mine, Pille, Taneshia Abt. Musical acts: Ben Münchow, Benito Bause, Berliner Pub Choir, Harris, Kasalla , Maeckes, Mauli,

TOPIC PAYMENT
I’ll tell it like it is very transparently: Bonjourney is a passion project and as such came into being very quickly. So far there is no crew and few sponsors. I operated the camera and sound myself during the shoot (which, in addition to my work as a presenter, wasn’t always easy). I am currently looking for additional sponsors and have already started pre-production for the second season because I am convinced that the first season will quickly find a large audience thanks to its interesting guests. That’s why I’m currently looking for people who would simply like the format and believe they can learn something from it, so it’s a win-win situation for all of us. Of course there is a small allowance for expenses and we will also make provision contracts in the event that the financial evaluation after the broadcast is a success, or that further sponsors join in as soon as we have put the first season into a presentable form. I have great hope that Bonjourney will soon be a successful brand and hope to continue working with everyone who supports me during this difficult start-up phase.
