We are offering 5 weeks of intensive instruction in principal filmmaking methods both in theory and in practice. Of course, our Campus offers so much more as part of the curriculum, but, first and foremost, it is an unforgettable experience for everyone involved. Time disconnects and everything that was prior to the workshop remains blurred in the memory 😊
Are you at a crossroads in your studies, or planning a life changing twist? Are you creative, witty and bold? Are you a passionate filmgoer and keen on the filmmaking process?
We are looking for open-minded talented young people who are open to the challenges presented by the various stages of the filmmaking process. The challenge is also present in collaborative work, the ability to deliver ideas and participate in developing input from one’s colleagues.
Do you wish to gain a brief yet comprehensive experience in the fields of directing, cinematography, sound design and editing? Our summer course may also serve as your summer university activity; the content of the studies is defined in ECTS credits and students obtain a Transcript of Records upon graduation.
