Mixed-media design and production studio Sehsucht has joined Passion’s New York and London rosters for advertising content representation in the U.S. and U.K.
Founded in Hamburg in 2000, with a second office opening in Berlin in 2010, Sehsucht is known for storytelling through a mix of animation, live-action and design, blending art with commerce on commercial projects.
Most recently Sehsucht completed the Genealogy of Nike Free Zoetrope for Nike; an immersive, interactive online 3D WebGL experience led by stunning CG visuals that allows users to view Nike Free athletic shoes from any angle while also creating their own shareable soundtrack on a bespoke sequencer.
Previously Sehsucht has created content for clients such as Audi, Lamborghini, RAM, Google, MTV, Panasonic, O2, Davidoff, Haagen Dazs and Mercedes-Benz, for whom the studio produced the multiple-award-winning Sounds of Summer campaign, which earned Gold at Cannes Lions. Since its inception Sehsucht has claimed prizes at the highest level of international advertising award shows including Cannes, The Clios, D&AD and LIAA.
Sehsucht is led by executive producer/partner Martin Woelke, creative director/partner Ole Peters, creative director/partner Mate Steinforth and creative director Hans-Christoph Schultheiss.
