Special Interest Film Music and «Music and Media»
E.T.A. Hoffmann, Romantic writer, lawyer and composer, put it aptly in words: “Where language ends, music begins.” Music touches in all forms and manifestations. It gives messages and images substantial emotional strength. Be it as a concise advertising jingle or as atmospheric film music.
Since his youth, Basil Böhni has had a great interest in classical and contemporary music, and he is particularly fond of film music. After graduating from the Alpenquai Cantonal School in Lucerne in June 2004, he began working as a freelance journalist for film and film music for various print and online magazines. Since 2014 he has been a member of the International Film Music Critics Association (IFMCA). He also regularly writes the programme booklets for the film music concerts of City Light Concerts at the renowned KKL Lucerne.
Stefan Minder
Multimedia Content Creator and Digital Marketing Specialist
As a trained businessman EFZ, it quickly became clear to Stefan Minder that his path should lead in the direction of the media. After training as a certified web and media publisher at the Webedu Multimedia Academy in Bern, he worked as a project manager and web developer at the Valencia Group in Basel.
After working in software design and as a digital marketing manager, his path led him to the MedTriX Group, where he created and supervised videos, animations, web content and podcasts as a content creator and content manager.
Since 2026, he has been working for Böhni Communications and as an examination expert for the apprenticeship as an Interactive Media Designer EFZ . He also gives stop motion animation workshops.
He fed his hunger for knowledge with Certificates of Advanced Studies at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland with a focus on usability and user experience (including certification as a UXQB Certified Professional for Usability and User Experience), digital content creation and further training in the field of 3D and motion design at the School of Motion.
Special Interest Stop Motion Films and Film Music
What began as a spontaneous idea in a school project week has developed into a real passion for Stefan Minder: creating stop motion animated films with LEGO . He produces every step completely on his own – right down to composing the film music. He loves to tell stories that contain a message and touch people. The fact that this can be achieved with seemingly immovable objects thanks to the art of animation fascinates him. Under the production name hirschundelch , his films have already been officially selected by animation festivals and regularly receive awards at so-called brickfilm festivals.
Stefan is no less passionate about film music. The diversity, emotional expression and art behind this unique form of music have almost become part of his personality. When he’s not rummaging through his collection of over 4000 soundtracks, he hangs out in the film music community, writes lyrics and reviews for the film music magazine Cinema Musica, of which he is a member of the editorial team, or sits in a concert hall and listens to the music of his heart live with orchestra.
Andreas Waser, MA
Editor, copywriter and design
Andreas Waser completed his studies in history and German studies at the University of Bern 2009. By 2011, he had also obtained the teaching diploma Sek. II at the PH Bern. After more than ten years of teaching experience at secondary schools and as a lecturer at the Lucerne University of Teacher Education , he entered local journalism as a career changer. As a newspaper editor for the municipality of Hergiswil am See , he became familiar with both editorial and design tasks in the creation of magazines.
The experience in local journalism paved the way for publishing. Andreas Waser worked for five years as co-project manager and editor for the largest private textbook publisher in Switzerland, Klett und Balmer Verlag.
Outside of work, Andreas Waser has gained experience as head of the communications department of the “Senkel” youth culture centre in Stans. As a historian, he has published various contributions in anthologies on the history of the canton of Nidwalden. He particularly enjoyed translating plays into Swiss German for the Stans Theatre and the Dallenwil Theatre.
Special Interest Literature, Theatre and Photography
Andreas Waser has always had a special fascination for (hi)stories. Literature gave him access to past times and foreign cultures. In addition, you get to know, love and hate people – even if only fictitious ones – with their weaknesses, strengths and desires, in their striving, winning and failing. These emotions can be experienced particularly strongly in the auditorium in front of a stage. The right light, the right timing, the right tone of voice: all of this comes together to create an image that can get under your skin like hardly anything else in this world. And so Andreas Waser also enjoyed capturing such pictures with his camera – without professional equipment and without ambitions, but with a lot of joy.
