Katja Ponickau

For many years, I have been appearing in front of the camera for national and international film and television productions. I develop my characters thoroughly using the Chubbuck Technique, which I continuously refine at the Chubbuck Studios (D/A/CH) and directly with Ivana Chubbuck. On set, I combine emotional depth with technical precision: I bring a strong inner vision to every scene, switch between emotions in a fraction of a second, and immediately implement directorial notes down to the smallest nuance. My additional training in stunt acting also gives me the high physical capability needed for demanding roles. To further my artistic development and cultivate my international network, I regularly attend film festivals worldwide.

My On-Set Bonus:

When I'm not in front of the camera, I work successfully behind the scenes as a film dog handler and animal trainer (dogs & horses). For you, this means: I understand set dynamics from both perspectives, remain absolutely focused even in the greatest chaos, and am the perfect choice for any role requiring strong, professional interaction with animals.

I look forward to collaborating with you and bringing multifaceted characters to life.
