Live and act

Brunnemann received acting lessons from Walter Stegemann from 1942 to 1944 and passed his entrance examination at the Reichstheaterkammer in 1944 . In 1946 he began as a speaker and director at the youth radio of the Berliner Rundfunk; Activities that he continued in 1948 at the Leipzig transmitter . While he worked as a dialogue director at Phönix-Film from 1948 to 1951, he studied theater studies in Berlin almost at the same time, from 1948 to 1952 . He then worked as a freelancer at RIAS Berlin, as a dubbing director for various companies and as a production manager and director for Mars-Film and Universum-Film.

In the area of dubbing , Brunnemann's name is primarily associated with his work as a producer of German versions of numerous foreign television series, but also films. In 1963 he founded his own company, Deutsche Synchron Filmgesellschaft mbH & Co. Karlheinz Brunnemann Produktions KG , based in Berlin. It is one of the oldest still existing dubbing studios in Germany and has been based in the former UFA area on Oberlandstrasse in Berlin-Tempelhof from the start .

As an author, Brunnemann shaped the so-called Schnodderdeutsch , a style of language that is a mixture of pub jargon and youth language , alongside Rainer Brandt . The style became the trademark of many synchronizations in the late 1960s and 1970s, most of whose books Brandt and Brunnemann were responsible for. Examples are your appearance, Al Mundy (1969, book: Karlheinz Brunnemann, Reinhold Brandes and Michael Richter (later episodes)) and Jason King (1973, book: Brunnemann). Brunnemann continued successfully in the 1980s to provide films with Schnodderdeutsch dubbing. This includes most of the films by Bud Spencer and Terence Hill , for which either Brunnemann or Brandt was responsible for the script and the direction. Because of the successes of Brandt and Brunnemann with “schnodderdeutsche” dubbing, the language style was increasingly expected from other dubbing studios, whose work, however, often deteriorated significantly in quality.

The best-known synchronizations under Brunnemann's leadership included many other films such as Dirty Dancing , Harry and Sally , Pretty Woman and A Question of Honor, as well as TV series such as Starsky & Hutch , Quincy and Remington Steele . In 1993 he handed over the management to his son Markus Brunnemann.

In 1979, Brunnemann and Hans Redlbach founded Phoenix Film Karlheinz Brunnemann GmbH & Co. Produktions KG . Numerous successful early evening series such as Ein Heim für Tiere ( ZDF ), Jakob and Adele (ZDF), Dr. Stefan Frank ( RTL ) or OP calls Dr. Bruckner (RTL) and family series like Unser Charly (ZDF), Hallo Robbie! (ZDF) or the Sat.1 series Edel & Starck were produced by Brunnemann. The UFA was a co-partner of the Phoenix film. Phoenix Film was based in Oberlandstrasse in Berlin-Tempelhof . The managing director in the last years of Brunnemann's life was his son Markus.

Phoenix Film was included in the new UFA Fiction in August 2013, a few months after Brunnemann's death .

Brunnemann lived in Berlin-Grunewald , was married and had a son and a daughter. He found his final resting place in the Berlin forest cemetery in Dahlem . (Grave field 011-523)
