Background & production
Blauberg is designed as a youth series. It initially ran as part of the Ö3 youth program Zickzack , which was directed by Martin Blumenau . Similar to the previously produced show Salon Helga , it was part of the project to play with various radio genres in various radio experiments. Dirk Stermann , one of the two heads of Salon Helga, also worked as the director of the first two seasons of Blauberg.
The alienation effect is often used in the series . The idea and the book come from Mischa Zickler .
The first season was sponsored by Philips , a leading manufacturer of voice recorders. When the sponsor got out after eight episodes, the voice recorder gradually disappeared from the series in which the brand name Philips was never mentioned.
