After graduating from his journalism studies in 1999, Peter Schong was
asked by former college buddy Klaas Panjer and Rob van Steenbergen to
feature in their independent no budget film Fluorescerend Bloed
(Fluorescent Blood), playing the reporter Danny Berghorst alongside
Bjorn van Mierlo. Schong's ideas were very much appreciated by Panjer
and Van Steenbergen, and he quickly became the third partner on the
project, writing and directing scenes. Schong also became the founding
member of ChickenWings Productions, along with Panjer and Van
Steenbergen. In autumn 2000 Fluorescerend Bloed was released and
broadcast as a miniseries on a local television station in Amsterdam.
In 2001 ChickenWings worked on their second no budget indie feature The
Last Dutch Picture Show, starring Arjan Adelerhof as the tormented
Evert Radboud, with Schong wokring as script writer, director and
producer. Besides ChickenWings, Schong works as a music and technology
journalist.
