"Doppelt kocht besser" is an entertaining cooking show where amateur chefs put their culinary skills to the test — with a unique twist: while one team member cooks live in the studio, the other guides them solely via earpiece. That means one explains, the other cooks — often resulting in chaos, misunderstandings, and a good dose of humor.

In the end, a jury decides which team manages to deliver the best dish despite the communication hurdles. The show thrives on teamwork, communication, and creativity — all wrapped in an engaging format with recipes viewers can try at home. It offers not just cooking inspiration, but is driven by the dynamic interactions between contestants, their personal stories, and the amusing moments that arise from “cooking by instruction.”

Aktenzeichen XY... Cold Cases is a special edition of the well-known ZDF crime-solving program Aktenzeichen XY... ungelöst. This format revisits unsolved criminal cases—so-called “cold cases”—with the aim of generating new leads from viewers that may help bring these investigations closer to resolution.

In each episode, multiple unsolved cases—some dating back decades—are presented in detail. By revisiting these stories, investigators hope to receive crucial new information from the public. The program combines dramatized reenactments, original footage, and interviews with detectives and the victims' families, offering a comprehensive view of each case.

Through this format, ZDF plays an important role in supporting law enforcement in solving long-standing criminal investigations, while also empowering viewers to take an active part in the fight against crime.

The Blauer Panther – TV & Streaming Award (2022) is one of the most prestigious media awards in Germany. It annually honors outstanding achievements in the fields of television, streaming, and digital content. The award celebrates creative storytelling, social relevance, and innovative productions—regardless of the distribution platform.

The award show represents a modern evolution of the former Bavarian Television Award, placing its focus on content that moves people—whether broadcast on traditional television or via streaming platforms. The festive gala brings together prominent presenters, award winners, and show elements, and is available both as a live stream and on demand in the ARD Mediathek.

For the 2024 award ceremony, Bendixen Media Service was responsible for the entire post-production of the gala show, including:

Editing of both the broadcast and streaming versions

Color correction and visual finishing to ensure a high-end, cinematic look

Audio mixing and final sound editing, preserving the live atmosphere while delivering technical perfection for on-demand distribution

Thanks to BMS’s work, the emotional impact, tension, and elegance of the event were seamlessly preserved across all channels—high-quality, contemporary, and audience-focused.

A key factor in the success of „One Stand Mic“ is the post-production company Bendixen Media Service. They handle the high-quality editing of the show, including image and sound, ensuring top-notch visual and audio quality. The expertise of Bendixen Media Service plays a crucial role in presenting the show at the highest technical standards, delivering an exceptional viewing experience for audiences.

“Bergfreundinnen” (literally “Mountain Girlfriends”) is a multimedia format by BR that targets a younger, mountain-loving audience – especially women. The three protagonists, Kaddi (Katharina Kestler), Toni (Antonia Schlosser), and Vroni (Veronika Meier), share their personal experiences in the mountains through documentaries, podcasts, and social media. The show explores topics such as:

Self-empowerment & women's roles in the outdoor world

- Sustainable tourism in the Alps

-Adventure and physical/mental boundaries

-Life on remote mountain huts

-Balancing city life with a longing for simplicity

This is not about peak performance or climbing records – it’s about real stories, authentic moments, and personal growth in nature. Bergfreundinnen encourages viewers to reflect on their own lives and find strength in solitude, nature, and friendship.

For “Unter unserem Himmel,” BMS handles the entire post-production process, including:

Editing, Color correction, Sound design and audio mastering

One example is the episode “Gwand ist Handarbeit” (“Clothing is Handmade”), aired on September 8, 2024, which features traditional craftspeople like hat makers and shoemakers working on Bavarian attire.

Thanks to BMS’s professional post-production, the visual and acoustic quality of “Unter unserem Himmel” supports the show’s mission to authentically reflect Bavarian culture and craftsmanship.

On November 7, 2024, a unique adventure began on ProSieben and Joyn: Eight celebrities embarked on the new adventure-reality show "Destination X", a 4,506-kilometer road trip across Europe – without knowing where they were. The crucial question every second: "Where am I?"

The raw footage for the show was processed at Bendixen Media Service (BMS), where the entire post-production, including post-editorial work, took place. BMS was responsible for editing and refining the material, ensuring the show’s high quality and delivering an exciting, visually and audibly impressive experience for the viewers.
