AL DENTE TEAM
Our team is a colorful bunch. And that’s just as well. Everyone does what they do best – and yet we are all somehow all-rounders.

PARTNER
Peter Schels
CEO
Now the Managing Director, Peter had been previously working in the media industry for over twenty-five years, including as a film and series curator for RTL and as a producer and director of various award-winning TV formats and shows before he founded al Dente Entertainment in 2004. Schels is a lecturer for corporate film at the Bavarian Television Academy, the LMU Munich and the Fresenius University of Applied Sciences. Peter collects festival prizes for al Dente as a director and author. He is a member of the Grand Jury at the New York Festival and the Cannes Corporate Awards. Due to his very direct communication philosophy he may be not the best choice for the diplomatic service, but very much so if clear communication is something you desire.
David Meadows-Hertig
Partner
Responsible for digitalisation, technology and production. David Meadows-Hertig seeks to constantly expand al Dente’s freelancer network and is always on the lookout for new system improvements (especially regarding his personal sweetheart, the al Dente editing server). He is a juror for the “Deutsche Webvideopreis” (German Web Video Prize) and has let the company drones rise on four continents to date. Considered a very charming late night worker.
Oliver Berger
Partner
Co-founder of al Dente Entertainment. Oliver Berger has a stake in a number of other corporate endeavours through his company Berger Venture. As a communications expert (master of all important dialects, even Schwyzerdütsch!) with a unique quick-wittedness, he is a specialist for “ice breaking”. Doesn’t take himself too seriously, like everyone else at al Dente.
