title
At the mountains of madness/Book
At the Mountains of Madness is a novella by American author H. P. Lovecraft, written in February/March 1931 and rejected that year by Weird Tales editor Farnsworth Wright on the grounds of its length. It was originally serialized in the February, March, and April 1936 issues of Astounding Stories. It has been reproduced in numerous collections.
This book is the result of a comprehensive design and print project at "Hochschule der Medien", Stuttgart, which was carried out by students of the Faculty of Print and Media Technology in conjunction with a lecture given by Professor Volker Jansen.
Wolf-Peter Steinheisser is a giftet photographer who does photo productions for advertising, fashion and lifestyle.
Moritz Metzger is a very talented retoucher and does post-productions for this book.
After graduating from high school (1983) and studying audiovisual media (1990-95) in Stuttgart (Hochschule der Medien, diploma), I worked as a freelance photographer and film producer in Germany and abroad, produced numerous books and have been a freelance lecturer for film and photography at the Hochschule der Medien in Stuttgart for several years.
As a studio for photography and film production, we work for well-known national and international clients from the B2B and B2C sectors: productions for image, product, advertising, travel, portrait and lifestyle photography. Our creative centre is located in Ludwigsburg near Stuttgart.
‘What type of person am I?’ Very passionate, quick and enthusiastic about a lot of things, nothing can put me off my stride. I cook a lot and love good wine, I do a lot of sport, listen to and collect music incessantly, read a lot, love travelling and enjoy my free time with my family and friends.
Credo: ‘Life is short. Make something of it.’

about the photographer
I was born in Sonneberg, in the Franconian part of Thuringia, in 1965. I've been interested in photography since I was very young, thanks in part to my father, who was an ambitious amateur photographer. I was given my first camera at the age of 10, and from then on it became my constant companion.After graduating from high school (1983) and studying audiovisual media (1990-95) in Stuttgart (Hochschule der Medien, diploma), I worked as a freelance photographer and film producer in Germany and abroad, produced numerous books and have been a freelance lecturer for film and photography at the Hochschule der Medien in Stuttgart for several years.
