About Lichtzug
Lichtzug is a specialized video production company from Hamburg for technical B2B companies in mechanical engineering, industry and manufacturing. It produces industrial films, product videos, reference films and assembly films that present complex products and systems in an understandable way and serve as proof in sales. Production takes place predominantly in real operations: in factories, production halls, on construction sites, in ports, as well as on ships and offshore deployments, with safety, permits and sensitive areas coordinated before the shoot. In addition to live footage with camera and drone, CAD-based 3D visualizations, VFX and 2D/3D animation are created. The service portfolio includes concept and shoot planning, camera, interviewing, drone footage, editing, color grading, sound, as well as still images and social media formats. With the Partner Reference System, Lichtzug documents existing customer projects of two clients as a reference film and communication film. Reference customers include Baumüller, DOYMA, HAMBURG WASSER, WaldrichSiegen, Fette Compacting, Schwabe Group, VSS Emmerich, LÄSSER, BOY Electric, Insort, TASK Engineering and Scaldis SMC. The Hamburg base serves as the organizational starting point for productions in Northern Germany and nationwide.
