Steffen Werner
Director of "Starship Troopers Deadlock"
Born in 1966 in Leipzig (Germany). I did two year of graphics design study before I switched to a pure technical study in Automation Technology. Since 1992 I work as software engineer in a huge software company. I never lost the connection to art and creativity. Due to my work I am in touch with web design. Since 2016 I want to come closer to the art, therefore I decided to make a movie, because I think it is a mixture of programming and creativity and it covers a huge bandwidth of capability which I want to bring down to the ground. I am a handcrafter too and filmmaking is a craft.
