Max Seefelder

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Max Seefelder (born April 17, 1897 in Munich ; † August 27, 1970 there ) was a German film architect .

Live and act

Seefelder had attended a construction school and trained as a construction technician. He then began to work as a painter and from 1925 also took on tasks for film production companies in his native Munich. In 1932, Seefelder was a junior partner of one of his teachers, Ludwig Reiber , and was also active as a film architect for the first time.

Until the end of his professional activity in 1960, Max Seefelder primarily set up films made on the Munich Bavaria site, initially in addition to productions by Franz Seitz senior , several comedies by Carl Boese as well as farmer's booze and Heimatfilms directed by Georg Zoch , Ferdinand Dörfler and Joe Stöckel .

Shortly after the end of the war in 1945, Seefelder was involved in some artistically more ambitious projects, including the satirical-cabaret-like Zeitbilder Film Untitled and The Lord from Another Star . His architectural designs for most of the films made during the Adenauer era are hardly worth mentioning.
