About Oona
Oona studied Cultural Anthropology & Latin American Studies, French & Catalan language and literature in Barcelona and Frankfurt/Main. Her expertise in those disciplines - she finished successfully with a Master's Degree - brought her into a rather unusual field of work. After finishing university she worked as a Strategic Planner in the advertising industry, became a Director's Scout & Sales Rep in an advertising production house and completed a Master's Class in Photography at the FAS (Fotografie am Schiffbauerdamm) and OKS (Ostkreuzschule) Berlin with Sibylle Bergemann and Arno Fischer. In 2006 she founded “Oona Film Creatives” an agency representing Creatives from the film industry like Directors, Cinematographers and Editors. 2010 she became founding member of exp12 - a collective of photographers & gallery. In the same year she joined Firsteight GmbH (editors & editing) where she holds the position of a Managing Partner. In 2011 Oona Film Creatives turns into NO/AGENCY in Vienna and Berlin. Oona leaves Firsteight in 2018 and starts S EC Studio for Editors and Creators GmbH in January 2019 - together with Ivana Vukasovic and Christian Zimmermann.
About Nathalie
Nathalie was born and raised in a small beautiful town in Hessen, Germany. She studied Business & Marketing in Pforzheim (Germany) and Leeds (UK), did several internships (Wunderman Cato Johnson, Pro7, Dentsu NYC, GAP Films, HEYE& Partner) and started working at DAS WERK Munich in 1999, where she acquired knowledge in Post Production and made lots of friends in the industry through their party life. When she heard that GAP Films was looking for a Directors Scout she knew immediately that she was the right person for that job before she was recruited for the same position by an Austrian Film Production Company (FRAMES). So in 2001 she moved to Vienna to stay for good. After some great years at FRAMES she decided to run her own business and founded Nathalie Winkler Agency (NWA) in 2004 which 7 years later - in 2011 - turned into NO/AGENCY to eventually team up with Oona in Berlin. Until now she lives with her family in Vienna.
