Aufbau vor laufender Kamera: Geschichten aus meinem Leben by Armin Maiwald

By Armin Maiwald

Armin Maiwald über sein bewegtes Leben – und die Anfänge des (Kinder-)Fernsehens in Deutschland
Seine Stimme kennt jeder. Seit über forty Jahren erzählt Armin Maiwald Sachgeschichten für Kinder. Und jetzt erzählt er auf seine unnachahmliche paintings – »solange das Gedächtnis noch funktioniert« – anlässlich seines seventy five. Geburtstags zum ersten Mal Geschichten in eigener Sache, angefangen beim Wiederaufbau nach dem Krieg und seinen ersten Schritten beim Theater und im Fernsehstudio. »Das ist viel zu schnell, das geht komplett über die Köpfe der Kinder hinweg« – zeitgenössische Reaktion auf die allerersten Sachgeschichten für Kinder, die heute recht lahm geschnitten wirken. Töne für Außendrehs wurden damals mit einer »Mikroport«-Anlage gemacht, für die guy eine Sendelizenz der Deutschen Bundespost brauchte; geschnitten wurde an vorsintflutlichen klobigen Maschinen. So fing das an mit dem Kinderfernsehen in Köln, und Armin Maiwald, der Vater der »Maus«, warfare von Anfang an dabei. Alles wurde zum ersten Mal gemacht, jeder neuer movie brauchte nicht nur gute Ideen, sondern auch ganz viel Recherche und Ausprobieren, bis ein Sachverhalt – »Wie kommt das Ei auf den Frühstückstisch?« – richtig erklärt und dargestellt battle. Und die Technik dafür musste immer miterfunden werden. Armin Maiwald erzählt in seiner schnörkellosen paintings von diesem ständigen kreativen Improvisieren, das nicht nur seine Arbeit als Fernsehproduzent, sondern sein ganzes Leben geprägt hat. Und er muss selbst staunen, wie viel sich verändert hat seit den Anfängen im kriegszerstörten Köln.
