Timothy Tremper attended Pepperdine University in Malibu CA, from 1986
* 1990. He dropped out of college when he got a first job in the
industry as a reader for executive Rico Cattani at MGM. In 1992 he moved back to his home country Germany to work as a runner for Luggi Waldleitners production company Roxy Film. He worked as 2nd and 1st AD up to production manager mainly for German TV movies and series shoot in foreign territory. In 1999 he formed his own production company, TTD Checkpoint Berlin Film productions. Under that banner and with two partners he produced six feature films. Due to the financial collapse of Senator Film, who didn't distribute the "Planet B" series, Tremper decided to pursue his career without the back up of any partners. Since 2003 he is a freelancer writer and producer. He lives with his wife and children in Germany and England.
