“a unique opportunity for networking.
in my professional life, there will definitely
be a ‘before’ and an ‘after’ the campus.”
Yves Heck, participant 2010
Nine years old and going strong: The idea of the Berlinale
Talent Campus has lost nothing of its freshness and international
attraction. On the contrary, this year nearly 4,000 filmmakers from as
many as 141 countries sent in their applications to be part of this
worldwide film community. 350 of them were chosen to gather at this
year’s Campus to attend the exemplary series of workshops and
lectures given by a range of top-notch international film experts.
Back home these up-and-coming filmmakers will profit from
the global network the Berlinale Talent Campus is able to provide
them with. And we definitely know that – because they come back!
Many Campus alumni send us their work, they apply with their films to
the Berlinale – that's one of our ways of keeping in touch.
And so, every year the Official Selection of the Berlin International
Film Festival is enriched by films made by Campus alumni. In
this manner, the spirit of the Campus swirls permanently within the
different sections of the festival. This year is not any different: We are
proud to present 35 films made with the major involvement of 38
current or former Talents in the Official Berlinale Selection – among
them is OUR GRAND DESPAIR by 2005 alumnus Seyfi Teoman in the
Berlinale Competition. This displays the immense potential of the
Campus and is the best proof of its growing significance.
But besides networking and learning from Berlinale guests,
as well as from other renowned professionals, there is another opportunity
offered to the participants of the Berlinale Talent Campus: the
chance to position oneself, the chance for self-orientation within a
world and an industry full of endless possibilities. As this year’s Campus
focus “Framespotting – Filmmakers positioning themselves“ stresses:
Every filmmaker has the chance to find an individual frame in which
she or he wants to work. Like a camera needs a perspective to shoot a
scene, a filmmaker needs a vision from which she or he can tell a story.
Positioning oneself is not an easy task; it might demand courageous
decisions and a good sense of responsibility. Nevertheless, to develop
a strong artistic profile, a clear approach and focus are indispensable.
The Berlinale Talent Campus offers support by way of unique pos si -
bilities to connect and discuss with people of a similar disposition as
well as with industry old hands or creative minds of all kinds.
That the Berlinale Talent Campus was able to position itself
over the course of the past nine years as a world-spanning community
of young filmmakers is due to a group of true partners who have
Berlinale Talent Campus #9

tirelessly supported it from the very beginning. First and foremost we
extend our gratitude to Bernd Neumann, the Federal Government
Commissioner for Culture and the Media (BKM) as one of our funders.
Together with a congratulation on its 20th anniversary, we also sin -
c er ely thank the MEDIA Training Programme of the European Union,
as well as our founding partner Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg.
Another founding partner, UK Film Council / Skillset, has unfortunately
not been able to join us anymore – nevertheless, thank you for your
backing in the past years! With out the support of all our partners
and sponsors we would not be able to create this fascinating frame
around the world‘s next filmmaking generation.
i wish everybody an exciting campus week – and we all look
forward to seeing you again with your films in the next years!

“i have learned so much, met many people
i would have never met otherwise,
and now i feel ready for the next stage
in my filmmaking career.”
Kyoko Miyake, participant Berlin Today Award 2011
Bringing together 350 up-and-coming filmmakers with around
150 film experts in a Kreuzberg theatre in one of Berlin’s most chilly
months is something we do every year for a very specific reason. Even
though most of us today connect more easily with the rest of the
world than ever before, we strongly believe that offering a real-life
platform where each attending filmmaker can meet 499 new people
in a short time, also makes sense more than ever before.
You’ll see that the Berlinale Talent Campus is a wide-span ning
event that sets out firstly to talk about the vibrant issues of today’s
cinema – not purely to philosophise about them, but also to set things
straight and break the often complex filmmaking reality down to
human proportions. For us, the film business is a people’s business
Matthijs Wouter Knol Programme Manager
Christine Tröstrum Project Manager

which evolves and depends on human relations. Even with an array of
different events, the Campus is set up to make people meet people:
talented young people eager to learn, talented experienced people
willing to share.
The mere fact that this is done during the Berlin International
Film Festival, makes a huge difference to the opportunities the
Berlinale Talent Campus can effectively offer: the huge amount of
different curated programmes and events during the Berlinale makes
it the perfect place to meet film-loving audiences on every level.
At the end of the day, making films comes down to building
trust. In order to find the people you want to work with intensively on
new film projects, people who can support you to find and face your
audience – meeting them and looking them in the eye is inevitable
and necessary to ensure that they share your passion. Filmmaking
requires you to commit yourself, to show who you are, to pay attention
to details that might seem trivial, but can change people’s attitude
and open doors for the future. To be able to join you, people need to
know where you stand.
That‘s insofar as real life meeting go. Beyond that, the Berlinale
Talent Campus enables you to stay connected more easily afterwards
through our online network of almost 4,000 filmmakers around the
world. All of them have been at the Campus, quite a few of them have,
in the meantime, found their way into the industry. Having a shared
experience in Berlin or anywhere in the world makes it easier to reach
out, to build new friendships and start collaborations.
And collaboration is what the Campus stands for: we aim to
enhance knowledge. Not only by enabling contact between filmmakers
but also by bringing together people from various disciplines
in order to refresh minds and make sure that you’ll have another
perspective on routines and procedures you’ve been taught or experienced
until now. Our global dynamic is reinforced by the colla borations
we have ourselves with Talent Campus programmes in Central
and South America, Africa, and Southeastern Europe.
out of 3,967 filmmakers who applied, you have made it to
berlin, europe’s creative capital du jour, which hosts the largest
audience film festival in the world. that‘s no reason to lean back
and relax, but to make the most of it!

“to ensure that creativity of the highest order continues

costas daskalakis
media programme
Continuous training of professionals and talented individuals
is essential to reinforce the competitiveness of the European audiovisual
industry, a core objective of the MEDIA Programme of the European
Union. That is why ever since its beginnings in 1991 the MEDIA
Programme has devoted a substantial amount of its budget to cofinance
training initiatives developed by professionals for pro fessionals.
More than 1,500 professionals from countries participating in
the MEDIA Programme are trained every year through more than 60
MEDIA funded training initiatives where they have the opportunity to
acquire new skills, learn from others’ mistakes or successes, fine-tune
their projects thanks to experienced tutors, explore new technologies
or expand their contact base.
It has therefore been natural for us to be the main financial
partner of the Berlinale Talent Campus since the beginning. We strive
for the same objectives and values: training professionals, fostering
projects, connecting people in Europe and the world.
Apart from training activities, there is a lot more that the MEDIA
programme offers to young filmmakers: project development, international
distribution, networking and access to key markets and coproduction
forums in Europe and around the world. This year, the
MEDIA programme is celebrating its 20th Birthday so we are especially
proud to look back on how much the European film industry has
developed over this period, and to stress our continued commitment
to supporting the EU film industry in the future. I wish you an exciting
Campus week and rich, vibrant coll a borative filmmaking adventures.
bernd neumann
Federal government commissioner
for culture and the media
The Berlinale, which will take place for the 61st time in 2011,
showcases the best of international cinema in Berlin. To ensure that
creativity of the highest order continues to be available in the future,
the Berlinale Talent Campus, now in its ninth year, brings the most
promising up-and-coming filmmakers from all over the world to Berlin
to engage them in creative exchange with one another as well as with
big names in cinema.
Accordingly, this year’s theme “Framespotting – Filmmakers
positioning themselves” is both a challenge and an encourage ment
for young filmmakers to find themselves and their place. At the
Berlinale Talent Campus, they are incited to examine their approach to
personal subjects, interact with new media and cinematic forms, and
last but not least, to ask themselves how to create a cinematic future.
At the same time, looking beyond national borders broad ens the
horizons of the participating young German filmmakers and thus
strengthens the German film industry.
As the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the
Media, I have once again decided to lend financial support to this
unique initiative that is dedicated to artistic exchange, creative sustainability
and cinematic diversity. I wish all the Campus par ti ci pants
and visitors exciting en coun ters full of inspiration, creativity and new
visions.

the worldwide campus network is the central feature
of the berlinale talent campus website – our online community.
The Berlinale Talent Campus website is not only a great source
of information about the current edition, the next application deadline
and ongoing programme elements like the Berlin Today Award, it is
also continuously updated with news on Campus events around the
globe and the current status of alumni projects. Moreover, for the
Campus’ 9th edition, a selection of master classes will be streamed live
on the Campus website and accessible thereafter on the Campus-on-
Demand section.
Campus-on-Demand offers a variety of videos, scripts, programmes
and photos from preceding Campuses. Panels and dis cussions
with experts such as Isabel Coixet, Stephen Daldry, Claire Denis,
Tilda Swinton, Shah Rukh Khan and Wim Wenders can be watched
online and are a great way to get information on con tem porary topics,
themes or discussions within the industry. As our international network
is vital to the Campus experience, we introduce this year’s Talents
online. Computer stations in HAU 1 and HAU 2 give direct access to this
network, where you can browse profiles that show samples of work
and filmographies, as well as the opportunity to contact fellow
filmmakers directly. The Berlinale Talent Campus community also includes
profiles of Campus alumni, including alumni of the Campus
International initiatives and a bulletin board where news on festivals,
events and calls-for-entry are collected and shared.
You can stay updated all year round with the Campus newsletter.
Featuring not only news from Berlin, it also reports on all
Campus ventures around the world, on the programmes in Guadalajara,
Durban, Buenos Aires and Sarajevo. The latest newsletter can be
read online or you can register to receive it via email on the Berlinale
Talent Campus homepage. Of course you can browse former Campus
editions too and find information about Campus locations and the
team.
With www.talentpress.org, young and up-coming film critics
have found their platform. Read articles, reportages, interviews and
features on films, filmmakers and festivals from Talents and Campus
alumni. Our virtual Campus is there for you to interact, collaborate,
inform yourself about fellow filmmakers and present yourself actively:

Four international editions of the campus, modelled along
the lines of the berlin-based archetype, have taken off abroad:
in guadalajara, buenos aires, durban and sarajevo.
3rd talent campus guadalajara (march 24-28, 2011)
ana de la rosa Zamboni and lorena rossette riestra, talent campus guadalajara
“The Talent Campus Guadalajara has created and consolidated a place where emerging
filmmakers and worldwide experts can come together: a forum that encourages and reinforces
future film productions allowing us to reflect our features; a place of creative exchange and
cinematographic collaboration. A country confesses itself through its filmography: if it does
not see its culture recreated in the audiovisual media, it loses the possibility of developing and
transforming its identity. It is important to establish venues that promote the creative exchange
between different cinematographic narratives, focused on highlighting the values and cultural
identity of each country, as well as the intercultural relationship among them.“
6th talent campus buenos aires (april 6-9, 2011)
maría marta antin, talent campus buenos aires
“Bringing together young professionals and experts around the same topic is our main
goal, with the aim of creating a space for exchange both intellectually and professionally. The
topic for the Campus 2011, ‘Cinematic forms‘, has been chosen to inspire discussions on how
the forms of cinema have changed or resisted throughout its history. The Talent Campus
Buenos Aires has become a main event for South American young filmmakers and professionals,
providing Talents the opportunity to profit from networking while developing a platform for
their own projects. For the second year we motivate them to join the hands-on programmes:
the result is an intense and rich debate around the fact of sharing a continent, South America.“
4th talent campus durban (July 22-26, 2011)
peter rorvik, durban international Film Festival
“The first three editions facilitated meaningful exchange between African filmmaking
Talents, generating inspiration and opportunities for participants. A powerful affirmation of
the contribution of this project in empowering a new generation of filmmakers in Africa is the
fact that the 31st Durban International Film Festival in 2010 programmed an unprecedented
13 films from Campus alumni. Problems of access are a big issue in Africa – access to resources,
infrastructure, funding and networks. Talent Campus Durban provides a highly valued networking
and skills training opportunity, bringing together about 40 young filmmakers from
nearly 20 different countries in Africa, in programmes that address these challenges.“
5th talent campus sarajevo (July 22-28, 2011)
mirsad purivatra, talent campus sarajevo
“Our first five-year plan was directed towards creating a proper community out of the
new generation of talent in Southeast Europe, introducing the standards it should operate on,
raising the bar for the achievements they aim for and finally building a brand out of Talent
Campus Sarajevo that can rightfully represent them. The main achievement of Talent Campus
Sarajevo must be the annual impact it has on rejuvenating the film industry in our region. An
annual, targeted injection of a critical mass of emerging talent into the system helps the in dustry
make its goals and approaches more youth-oriented. The industry now understands this
and trusts the Talent Campus Sarajevo to highlight the most promising talent.“

Funding matters!
the robert bosch stiftung and the manfred durniok Foundation have been supporting
the berlinale talent campus over the past years. their contribution, both financial
and conceptual, are invaluable to its success.
the co-production prize of the robert bosch stiftung
Especially interested in Eastern Europe? The core ambition of
the Co-Production Prize of the Robert Bosch Stiftung is to encourage
collaboration and foster mutual development between producers and
filmmakers in Germany and Eastern Europe. Supporting filmmakers
and producers has had a profound impact over the past years: films
have been screened all over the world and won awards or were Oscarnominated.
Take German producer Stephan Grobe: he joined the
Talent Campus Sarajevo as a guest in 2009 upon learning about the
Co-Production Prize. Having applied with Kazakh filmmaker Katya
Suvorova, their documentary film project SEATOMORROW won the Co-
Production Prize in 2010, and the film THE HOUSEMAID (directed by
Anna Hoffmann), which he produced, was screened at the Berlinale
Perspektive Deutsches Kino in 2010.
Ideally, film projects supported by the Robert Bosch Stiftung
are only the first of many projects between up-and-coming filmmakers
from Eastern Europe and Germany. One example is the collaboration
between German producer Henning Kamm and Hungarian director
Lili Horváth, whose film SUNSTROKE won the Co-Production Prize in
2008 and premiered at the Sarajevo Film Festival; Horváth and Kamm
have joined forces again for a feature-length film.
Nominated for the European Film Award was Paul Negoescu’s
RENOvATION (produced by 2010 alumnus David Lindner), also a winner
in 2008, which premiered at the Berlinale Shorts in 2009 and was
shown at numerous festivals in Europe and beyond.
The Robert Bosch Stiftung’s Co-Production Prize competition
is open to young filmmakers between 18 and 35 and graduates from
film and media academies from Germany and East and South East
Europe. Joint production teams with a producer, director, camera oper
ator (not for animated films) and a screenwriter in a balanced mix
from both regions are allowed to submit projects. The categories
qualifying for three co-production prizes for joint short film pro ductions
are animated film, documentary and short film, and each winning
production can receive up to 70 000 euros in funding.

manfred durniok Foundation
German producer, filmmaker, photographer and writer
Man fred Durniok was always drawn to distant places. Although a
visi tor of many continents, it was Asia that captured his imagination.
Con si dered a pioneer who brought Asian cinema to the attention of
Western audiences, he promoted and encouraged multicultural
encounters and exchanges through film co-productions. The Manfred
Durniok Foundation, founded by the late filmmaker’s daughter,
Ayano Teramoto, is a non-profit organisation established in 2006 to
support and promote cultural exchanges between Germany and
Asia, to grant scholarships, award prizes and to give financial support
to intercultural gatherings.
It is not only the Berlinale Talent Campus’ decisive inter -
nat i onal perspective and interest in a dialogue that goes beyond
poli tical and cultural borders that makes this cooperation a fruitful
one. Intercultural awareness is a recurrent theme in the films that
Dur niok made and produced; it is that spirit that the foundation
hopes to continue.
The Manfred Durniok Foundation once again supports
Talents from South East Asia attending the 9th edition of the Berlinale
Talent Campus by covering the costs of their travel, as they have
since 2007. Meet fellow East Asian Talents at the Manfred Durniok
Foundation‘s reception on Feb 13 from 12:30-13:45 in the Kaiser saal

which world do you
want to live in?
the 9th Berlinale talent campus encourages a new generation of filmmakers to
position themselves and to tackle contemporary issues head-on in films that are
stamped with their distinctive styles and artistic visions.
“ the past was neither as good nor as bad as we suppose: it was just different.
if we tell ourselves nostalgic stories, we shall never engage the problems that face
us in the present – and the same is true if we fondly suppose that our own world
is better in every way.“ Tony Judt, “Ill Fares the Land“
Every year, the Berlinale Talent Campus centres attention on
the most promising filmmakers from all over the world. It means 350
people from different backgrounds with their own reasons to be
work ing in film, their dreams and the differing options open to them.
Their passion for film and their willingness to travel and widen their
experience by learning from others is what unites them. Nevertheless,
each one of us brings another story to Berlin. Each story shows a new
undiscovered piece of our world, it tells us something about what the
world around us means.
This Campus edition focuses on the awareness of that world
and one’s active position in it. Which world do you want to live in? A
world that presents itself to you in a way others have decided it should
be, a world in which you follow the rules and the regulations and do
things like they’ve been done for decades? Or a world in which you try
to change things? A world in which you are allowed to redefine, adjust,
question or oppose things because you feel the urge to do so.
These are big questions. We think that for every single filmmaker,
these are issues that matter, that one should think about and
be aware of, issues that coincide with the film you work on, that shape
your personality and influence the circumstances in which you find
yourself at the moment.
The Berlinale Talent Campus #9 aims to frame these issues and
to focus on a new generation that firstly positions itself in modern
society: speaks out, dares to question things that make you think, that
make you doubt, that enrage you or that you’re passionate about. In
2011, the Campus focuses on how emerging filmmakers can poli ti ­
cal ly or socially engage themselves and take a stand in today’s world.
Filmmakers like Kerry Fox, John Greyson, Barbara Hammer, Claudia
Llosa, Sepideh Farsi, Samuel Maoz, Janus Metz, Rafi Pitts, Isabella
Ros sellini, Abder rah mane Sis sako, Danis Tanović and Christine Vachon
will address this in a variety of sessions – talking not only about what
they think it should be, but also about how they engage with contemporary
society and how they use their work to make a difference.

An increasingly demanding film in du s try often requires clear
po sitioning in yet an other way. What are the new trends and in which
direction are technology, financing mo d els and production work ­
flows devel op ing? Pioneers and grand masters will un veil their se crets
and share their insights with a selected group of Campus film makers,
among them Shekhar Ka pur, Edward Lach man, Alex Mc Do well,
Mi ch el Reilhac, Philippe Ros, Wim Wenders and Jasmila Žbanić.
In a world dominated by social net work ing and non­stop
stimuli, focusing has be come an art in itself. Following your in stincts
might not be enough – focusing asks for daring and decisiveness, for
choices and thorough concentration.
This year’s pro gramme includes an array of workshops by
experts who help you train yourself to deal with these vital issues: not
postponing de cis ions, having an aim and becoming aware of what
you can com mu ni cate non­verbally. It‘ll help you realise that you're
part of a com mu nity of promis ing film makers and not fighting alone
against dead lines, industry pressure or disappearing funds.
We believe that a new generation of filmmakers does care
about the world they live in – and the Campus challenges you to de ­
fine your own way of expressing this in your work.

The Campus‘ Score Competition from above to below:
Last year's three finalists in the studio | Michael Nyman working
on an orchestration | German Film Orchestra Babelsberg
Score Competition
underscoring a film
three composers get ready to score
to the moving image.
If music communicates anything at all, it communicates emotions.
Think about your favourite film and it’s a good bet that you’ll find
a powerful score inextricably linked to the experience. Some great
scores have imprinted key cinematic moments in the minds of the
audience; sometimes they assist in raising their status to classic film.
At the nerve centre of theory and practice, the Score Competition
offers composers and sound designers hands­on experience in composition
for film. They have the opportunity to draw on the extensive
skills of established professionals and experiment with the high­end
equipment of the German Film Orchestra Babelsberg and the Film and
Television University (HFF) “Konrad Wolf“.
Composing a new score for selected film material is what it’s all
about. The three finalists of the Score Competition – Ehud Freedman
(Israel), Roger Goula (Spain/UK) and Felix Rösch (Germany) – will each
compose a score for the short film LITTLE REd by Romanian director
Eva Pervolovici. LITTLE REd is one of the five short films pro duced for
the Berlin Today Award 2011 (see page 33).
“ it was amazing to be involved in every
aspect of the composition and production
process from the sketches to the final mix.”
Camilo Sanabria, Score Competition winner 2010
Priceless insights from their mentor, renowned composer
Michael Nyman will guide their nine­day musical journey in Berlin. The
unique chance to record their compositions with the German Film
Orchestra Babelsberg will be followed by the final mixing at the Film
and Television University (HFF) “Konrad Wolf“ and editing at the postproduction
company Wave­line. All three finalists will receive direct
individual feedback not just from their mentor Michael Nyman, but
also from the various experts involved in all stages of post­production
– from preparing scores, using studio resources and re cor d ing with an
orchestra to the final editing and mixing.
Since 2004, the Score Competition has been training composers
in the art of film scoring and many of them have gone on to
score a variety of both short and feature­length films, documentaries,
commercials, television programmes and other productions that require
original music composition. The intense and enriching sound
journey of the three finalists reaches its climax at the Score Competition
Presentation on Feb 17, where the winning contestant will be awarded
a trip to Los Angeles with an exclusive guided tour to the best sound
studios in the city, sponsored by dolby Laboratories.

Score Competition
create your world
score competition mentor michael nyman about his work
with Peter greenaway and the specific needs of young film composers.
you began as a musical theorist – how did that
influence you as a composer?
Yes, I started as a would­be musicologist in the 1960s. I edited
early music and was a music critic for ten years. So even before I
became a composer there was already a career I left behind. I have a
sort of awareness that comes from all those diverse elements that
made up my career before I was 25 that stays with me. And I have a
knowledge of European musical tradition and how to find source
material which is, I guess, why it sometimes appears in my original
work. So my whole history moved into the direction of what I do
now. Although it is sometimes added – maybe confused – by also
being a photo grapher and a filmmaker…
Have there been moments in your career where you thought
you would need to position yourself more clearly?
The market place for young composers today is very different
from how it was when I started composing and also from the position
which I was in when I started composing. At that time, 1976, writing
music was kind of simultaneously with me writing soundtracks. It’s
not that I was in the film or soundtrack business as a young composer
has to be now, but I’ve worked with a very specific director, Peter
Greenaway who had the most specific ideas and very specific needs
for a composer. He made films which were not generic films, which
from an aesthetic point of view, from a structural, conceptional,
ironic point of view happened to be close to the kind of music I was
writing anyway. So, the collaboration with Peter Greenaway was, in
the first place, a way of me exploring my new found creativity as a
composer.
this way you were able to develop a certain personal
style – would you consider this an important qualification
for a young film composer?
Well, on the one hand I say: Find your own voice, be an individual.
Try not to be part of a generalised music direction where
your music could be mistaken with the music of a hundred others.
But on the other hand, from the economic point of view that position
of the soundtrack composer as an original artist is also very
dangerous because if your particular brand, your particular sound of
music is not liked by the people who have the power to make de ci sions
then you never get any work. So you do have to be a generalist
too, you do have to be able to write for a full orchestra, street music,
rap music and so on. But I obviously prefer far more to be in the
position I am. I create my world and that’s my life, to be Michael
Nyman, to sound like Michael Nyman.
Michael Nyman
Film composer
British film composer, pianist, librettist and musicologist.
Nyman became widely known as a film score composer
for his work in many of Peter Greenaway’s films (A ZEd
& TWO NOUGHTS, THE COOK THE THIEF HIS WIFE & HER
LOV ER, PROSPERO’S BOOKS), and his scores for WONdER­
LANd and GATTACA. His soundtrack for THE PIANO sold
more than three million copies. He has written numerous
orchestral and ensemble pieces and tours as a performing
pianist with the Michael Nyman Band. His credits as
filmmaker include the 2010 documentary NYMAN WITH A
MOVIE CAMERA.

Script Station
scriPting in Process
script consultants work with talents for greater depth
in their storytelling.
It doesn’t matter how good your idea is if you can’t find a way
to tell the story. A fantastic narrative and intriguing charac ters can
convert an idea into a captivating script, but this is no mean feat.
Helping scriptwriting Talents to find creative solutions to their speci ­
fic script problems, develop characters and dialogues to their fullest
and fine­tune their script is what’s on hand at the Script Station. It
connects scriptwriters and leading script consultants from around the
globe to discuss and develop the yet unpolished scripts.
The Script Station commences with an intensive Project devel
opment day that prepares the ground for subsequent coaching
and feedback sessions with men tors Gyula Gazdag, Louise Gough
(SOURCES 2), Lucile Hadžihalilović, Marten Rabarts, Franz Rodenkirchen
and Selina Ukwuoma. This note worthy line­up of mentors will
work with writers and directors on the in­depth development and enhan
cement of their projects at this very critical phase in the filmmaking
process.

Doc Station
accelerating develoPment
industry professionals assist documentary directors
to refine their film projects.
As creative projects that put real life struggles and aspirations
into cinematic stories, documentaries provoke thought and reflec ­
tion, and sometimes even action. At the Campus doc Station, it is the
authors of these stories who reflect on their concept and treatments
and work at developing the quality, range and ambition of their
projects, as well as their own creative skills.
This hands­on training, which owes its existence to the support
of the German Federal Film Board (FFA), assists twelve determined
documentary filmmakers at a time when the pressures and challen ­
ges of structuring their treatments are mounting. A week of undivid ­
ed attention, insights and advice by high­profile industry experts will
take them a long way in strengthening and improving the narra tive
structure of their treatments. doc Station mentors include Kathrin
Brink mann, dick Fontaine, Jakob Kirstein Høgel, Ulla Simonen
(SOUR CES 2), Fleur Knopperts, and Meike Martens. Mentoring ses s ions
running parallel over the week will be preceded by an intensive Project
development day.
The Doc Station: a week of undivided
attention, insights and advice by experts
twelve documentary film projects were
selected in early december for the

Campus Studio
tackling tecHnology
“ the editing studio gave me
the rare chance to see editing in
a new light from an experienced
editor.”Leong Huat Michael Kam, participant 2009
The bustling Campus Studio: state­of­the­art digital workflow
equipment from editing suites (above) to digital cameras (below)
the campus studio is a bustling post-production hub
where aspiring filmmakers give films their final touches
for the big screen.
Good films – those that tell a compelling story and effectively
deliver the filmmaker’s vision – are the result of a magical blend of
ideas, aesthetics and the mechanics of filmmaking. A good understanding
of filmmaking tools and techniques is a prerequisite to
translating these ideas into cinematic language. designed to assist
Talents in finding the right artistic expression for their films, the Post­
Production Studio is an intensive hands­on educational experience
that gives them a thorough understanding of the integral steps in the
post­process and focuses on improving films in the final stages of
production. Professionalising work processes is the keyword which
Talents learn by way of technological know­how and the expertise
pro vided to them: The latest technology for ingest and transfer,
editing, grading and mastering digital material are made available to
Talents in the Post­Production Studio. The Editing Studio, for its part,
allows selected Talents to fine tune their rough­cuts and strengthen
the narrative structure of their stories on the advice and expert
guidance of world­class editors. The Campus Studio has been made
possible through the support and cooperation of Camelot Broadcast
Services and the German Film and Television Academy Berlin (dffb).
Post-Production studio
The Post­Production Studio places the reputed cine matographer
and post­production expert Philippe Ros and post­production
supervisor Ugur Yildrim at the disposal of Talents, who direct them on
using state­of­the­art digital workflow equipment and offer a comprehensive
survey of the practical filmmaking techniques – from
shooting with digital cameras like Sony F3 and ARRI Alexa to digital
post­production processes including editing, grading, mast ering and
data management.
editing studio
Editing can be an exacting process. And yet, often after weeks
of being closeted in the editing studio, you’ve made little progress.
Noted editors Andrew Bird, Katja dringenberg, Susan Korda, Gesa
Marten and Molly Malene Stensgaard work with around nine Talents
in the editing room, giving them valuable insight and tips to improve
and strengthen the narrative structure of their projects. Talent editors
and directors will have an entire day with a renowned editor to polish
the rough­cuts of their fiction or documentary short films or excerpts
of their feature­length film. As Astrid Rondero, participant in 2010, explains,
“I had been working on the editing process for a year afraid of
loosing the important part of my short film. The Editing Studio was a
great journey of rediscovery, everything finally found its place”.

Campus Studio
tHe editor as transformer
campus editing studio expert, the danish film editor molly malene stensgaard on
her collaborative work with lars von trier, useful skills and the nature of editing.
film editing is referred to as the “invisible art form“:
the less you notice the editing the better it is. do you agree?
Well, I think it’s somehow right that editing is an invisible art
form. But I don’t think in general that it is not good when you notice
it. Editing is very often an art form that is blended into the film, it’s
built in and that is quite beautiful. So if people experience the film
well, then I feel happy because then I know I have done my job well.
so then, should the material influence the style of editing?
Yes, the material and the vision for the film. I don’t believe in
editors having their own way of editing or having a personal style
and applying it to any film. That doesn’t make sense to me.
How do you put the first cut together – do you follow
the script exactly or do you just try to read the film
by watching the material?
A kind of mixture, I think. In the beginning I use the script as
a reference, as guidance to orientate myself in the story. For the first
cut, I don’t take out many lines out of respect for the efforts that
went into the script. I think, at this early stage, it is too soon for me
to be that “wise“ on the story. So normally, I do the first cut pretty
much according to the script. But after that it is very much the
editor’s task to work at the transformation from written language to
film language. And that also means taking a distance from the script
and cutting out dialogue, if reasonable. Being exactly at the point of
this transformation: That’s one of the beauties of the editor‘s work.
what is your way then of finding the ideal rhythm for a film?
Oh, that’s actually the easy part. It results very much from
working with the material. I think, basically, that is the talent you
need as an editor from the beginning: You can learn a lot about story ­
telling, structure and stuff like that, but a sense for rhythm, music and
movements you have or you don’t have.
you just finished your 7th film with lars von trier – what is
it you both share that you can work together so well?
Humour is a very important part of being together for such a
long time in the editing room. Then, we use very little energy on
power struggle issues, which is whose territory and so on. The important
thing is to create a room of trust and respect for each other.
Our working relationship is also based on the fact that I am always
allowed and expected to do experiments. Lars von Trier and I never
say to each other: “What a bad idea!”, and then discuss it for ten
minutes. We just try it out.
Molly Malene Stensgaard

The Talent Project Market: the unique opportunity
to present projects to potential co­producers
and financiers
Projects selected for the Talent Project Market compete for
four prizes: three pre­selected projects will be pitched publicly to
producers and potential financiers of the Co­Production Market and
receive the three VFF Highlight Pitch Awards of Euros 3,000 each. One
project, to be selected on the spot, will receive the International
Relations ARTE Prize of Euros 2,500. The “Talent Project Highlights“
event is sponsored by VFF (German Collecting Society for Inhouse and
Commissioned Production of Film and TV Programmes).
Not only do Talent directors and producers have the unique
opportunity to present their projects to co­producers and fin an ciers,
the four­day programme of the Talent Project Market also allows them
to prepare for their meetings and learn about the international business
and market. In du stry experts and experien ced pitching trainers
offer valuable insights and guide participating directors and producers
on presenting and marketing their projects and the technicalities of
international co­pro duc tion, financing and markets. These initial
training elements serve to prepare Talents for their oncoming one­onone
meetings with potential partners in ter estedin getting on board
projects while they are yet in an early stage of development.
Over and above, Talents can avail of a multitude of informal
networking possibilities including fruitful exchanges and sharing of
projects with co­participants.

Talent Press
notHing if not
critical
Passionate and informed criticism is the buzzword
as upcoming film critics and journalists plunge
into the world of cinema.
Writing about films just before they open in cinema halls, the
“job“ part of being a film critic for a daily or weekly publication, is often
far more challenging and stressful than writing film essays for a
monthly magazine or film blog. Talent Press, a collaborative venture
of the Berlinale Talent Campus, the Goethe­Institut and FIPRESCI, has
participating press Talents experience the pressures of working in an
editorial room situation with its very tight deadlines, preparing them
for the real life challenges of the “job“.
In its eighth edition, eight film critics and journalists at different
stages in their careers and from different corners of the world come
together in Berlin: Josefina Maria Garcia Pullés (Argentina), Francis
Joseph Cruz (Philippines), Conall Cash (Australia), diego Faraone
(Uruguay), Eren Odabasi (Turkey), Nicholas deigman (UK), Bethsheba
Achitsa (Kenya) and Pamela Pianezza (France).
For many of them, Talent Press facilitates their very first ex ­
po sure to an international film festival, where they gain the opportunity
to explore the inner working of the Berlin International Film
Festival and sharpen their knowledge and views on independent and
experimental, as well as mainstream cinema. Exchanging views and
receiving feedback and guidance from prominent film critics as they
review films, write about Campus events and conduct high­profile
interviews makes it an invaluable experience. Talent Press, as an
estab lished forum for eclectic film criticism, also provides a space

as build networks for the development of their writing careers. Mentor
Chris Fujiwara stated in an interview: “At Talent Press, you have the
chance to talk and work with people who are motivated by the same
thing as you: the desire to see and understand cinema.” Joining him as

features articles of press Talents and alumni throughout the year – and
on those of the Goethe­Institut and FIPRESCI “Best of Talent Press”, a
print publication comprising a selection of articles written during the
Campus week, will be released on the last Campus day.
Talent Press begins with an “Introduction day“; mentors and
press Talents come together and get to know one another before they
commence their fervent writing and reviewing of films and events.
They also gain a more in­depth understanding of the Campus and its
vast range of events and activities, as well as an overview of the current
state of film criticism worldwide.

Talent Actors Stage
develoPing tHe actor
in you
in its second year, the talent actors stage assists actors
to enhance their technique and develop their craft.
It’s rigorous, but exhilarating! The Talent Actors Stage offers a challenging opportunity
to explore acting techniques, dialogue delivery, casting, improvisation and more. In its second
year and going full throttle, this hands­on training programme is not just for actors, but focuses
on interdisciplinary collaboration with directors, producers, scriptwriters and cinematographers
to foster exchange, dialogue and effective cooperation among practitioners of the different
fields of filmmaking. As such, the Talent Actors Stage facilitates the improvement of actors’
per formances by bringing them together with professionals from other film disciplines. In addi
t ion to networking possibilities with other film practitioners and co­Talents, the Talent Actors
Stage endeavours to give more prominence to acting Talents within the Campus.
the talent actors stage offers actors five special events:

assist them in delivering compelling per formances.

five directing talents will have the special opportunity to make a short film based on the theme
“every step you take” in collaboration with a production company from berlin / brandenburg.
the berlin today award, the annual short film competition of the berlinale talent campus, is within reach.
“ i met great collaborators and was given a
huge leg-up to grander production values;
from here-on there's no turning back.”
Bryn Chainey, Berlin Today Award winner 2010
The short film competition of the Berlinale Talent Campus
invited directors from all over the world to submit ideas inspired by
the motto “Every Step You Take”. does the flap of a butterfly's wings in
Thailand set off a tornado in Texas? Small decisions we take in everyday
life intrinsically influence our near future. What is a harmless accessory
in one part of the world might be a major statement in another that
leads to a chain of reactions. Whether political or private, it is these
moments of taking a step and being aware of it, that are at the core of
the Berlin Today Award 2012.
Fifteen Talents selected prior to the Campus will be able to
present their film ideas to selected producers during the Producers’
Meeting at the Berlinale Talent Campus 2011. The top five projects will
be produced by five production companies from Berlin and Bran denburg
– with funding from the Medienboard Berlin­Bran den burg and
in­kind contributions from the film industry.
The short films will celebrate their world premiere at the
Opening of the Berlinale Talent Campus 2012 as part of the 62nd

five sHorts are
“leaving tHe familiar sector”
sharing the limelight, the five short films competing for
the berlin today award 2011 celebrate their world premiere
at the opening ceremony of the berlinale talent campus.
Since its invention, cinema has helped us to imagine what our
lives could be like and how the world could look. Film offers an extraordinary
glimpse into a world you've never seen, never dreamt of or
dared to enter. How do you imagine a world beyond what you've
known, and what do you see when you leave the place you know
best? The motto of this year’s competition encouraged film makers
to envision a world beyond the familiar.
A jury comprising actress dorka Gryllus, director Hannes Stöhr
and producer Peter Rommel selects the winner of the Berlin Today
Award 2011 from:

the rules of engagement
Kerry fox, Henning Mankell and José Padilha.
Moderated by Matthijs Wouter Knol.
In cooperation with Berlinale Panorama.
11:00 | Hau 1
Whether mainstream blockbuster or low­budget documen tary,
films are capable of engaging the realm of politics, society and
culture. But tackling contemporary issues or working within a very
specific niche is by no means easy. How could a new generation of
filmmakers position themselves in such a climate? Brazilian director
José Padilha won the 2009 Golden Bear for ELITE SquAD, and his latest
ELITE SquAD 2 – THE EnEMy WITHIn features in this year’s Berlinale
Panorama. Padilha explores in his films the problems of crime in Rio,
particularly in relation to police corruption and middle­class in difference.
Joining him on stage is new Zealand actress and director
Kerry Fox who won the 2001 Silver Bear for Best Actress for her role in
InTIMACy, and Swedish author, screenwriter, dramatist and activist
Henning Mankell, who is best known for the “Kurt Wallander Mysteries”.
Mankell was on the “Ship to Gaza“ in 2010, which tried to break the
Israeli embargo of the Gaza strip. The three panellists will talk about
how it all began for them – the initial impetus that led them down
their individual paths, how it impacted their lives, shaped subsequent
projects, and how this engagement further developed taking on a life
of its own.
diving into Post-Production
Case Study with Philippe ros.
In cooperation with Camelot Broadcast Services.
11:00 | Hau 3, top floor
Reputed director of photography and digital imaging supervisor
from France, Philippe Ros will conduct a case study on OCEAnS, a
film directed by Jacques Perrin and Jacques Cluzaud, which was in
production for over six years. As digital imaging director, technical
supervisor of the image and one of 17 DOPs on OCEAnS, Ros will
divulge “secrets“ to dealing with the challenges that arise when
matching film and digital formats, in particular when numerous shots
are taken under totally different conditions, at differing depths and
with varied lighting, as was the case for OCEAnS. He will explain how
Berlinale Talent Campus #9

the combination of old lighting tricks, new contrast curves and colourist
skills allowed him to achieve his goals quite successfully.
Plac ing emphasis on the relationship between the chief digital imaging
technician and the colourist, Ros will show how the directors of
OCEAnS succeeded in creating a strong team and involving the DoPs
in extensive research at various levels.
filming War
Janus Metz, Samuel Maoz and danis tanović.
Moderated by ben Gibson.
In cooperation with Robert Bosch Stiftung.
14:00 | Hau 1
Portraying high pressure and life­risking situations is inherent
to film making processes that depict war and crisis situations, whether
fiction or documentary. The very notion of crisis implies that filmmakers
have to deal with specific issues: decide what to show and how
to deal with the (fictitious) reality of war and extremity. Reflecting on
such issues are three reputed filmmakers – Danis Tanović bagged an
Oscar in 2001 for nO MAn’S LAnD, Janus Metz won the 2010 Grand
Prize at the International Critics' Week of the Cannes Film Festival for
his documentary ARMADILLO, and Samuel Maoz won the 2009 Golden
Lion at the Venice International Film Festival and two European Film
Awards for LEBAnOn. All three critically acclaimed films depict war and
portray people under tremendous pressure. Janus Metz and his cinema
to grapher had to expose themselves to the same risks as the
soldiers. They filmed with two cameras the entire time and even had
some soldiers wear helmet cameras. The absence of dialogue in Maoz’
film script for LEBAnOn meant that rehearsing seemed pointless: “I
took each of the actors and, separately, locked them in a very small,
dark and hot container. After about two hours, when I knew their
bodies would have shut down, as if hypnotised, I knocked on the iron
walls with a bar, something that sounded very like an attach on a tank
[…] When they came out and I looked in their eyes, I could see that I
didn’t have to explain anything else.” In nO MAn’S LAnD, Tanović relies
heavily on humour to defuse the tension and highlight the ironies
of the situation. The three filmmakers will discuss their distinctive
approaches to depicting tense, life­threatening situations, as well as
the creative and political decisions they took while making their films.
Kill your darlings
Master class with Susan Korda.
14:00 | Hau 2
The editing process which sounds simple enough – you select
shots and you arrange and modify them to clarify and refine their form
and content – is actually a rather complex and dynamic process. It is a
question of technique and art. Film editing isn’t just about how the
stories you choose to tell in your films can be enhanced, it sometimes

comes down to rescuing an entire film project. Films often find their
true form in the editing room. This master class by Susan Korda will
take you on an inspiring and educational journey that lays bare the
lessons learnt by previous film teams and editors. you will learn how to
craft a film’s structure and perfect its look such that it grabs an
audience and keeps it there.
Susan Korda, editor, director, writer and lecturer at Columbia
university, and long­time Campus expert, will provide an insider view
of the dynamics of the craft of editing showing clips from a selection
of films such as BOnnIE AnD CLyDE to draw attention to a multitude of
details from the sound and edit to the background of a film. She will
discuss different approaches to the work of an editor and elaborate on
the importance of experimentation, for example, by illustrating how a
film can function quite well despite flaws in the wardrobe or the angle
of the camera. She will guide you on how to “kill your darlings“ in the
editing process without losing your collaborators in the montage
stage of filmmaking, and explain how an editor can work with an
overwhelming amount of excess footage, and yet succeed in extracting
the best material which is carefully woven into the film, every
decision shaping the tone and pace of the film.

14:00 | Hau 3, top floor
Acting is first and foremost a craft. And although honing one’s
acting skills is crucial, it doesn’t come with certified roles or with the
experience of dealing with the demands of each role. Prominent ac tress
and filmmaker, winner of the 2001 Silver Bear for Best Actress for
her outstanding performance in InTIMACy, Kerry Fox will reflect on
what it means to dive head and heart into a role and how directors can
assist actors in delivering compelling performances. Drawing on her
vast and versatile acting career and sharing her per spective as a
director, she will give insight into her own style of working with actors
and her personal experiences with the various directors in whose
films she has starred. Kerry Fox stepped into the limelight with her role
in Jane Campion’s An AnGEL AT My TABLE and went on to establish
herself in ter nationally, working in independent films and television.
Amongst numerous others, she has starred in Gillian Armstrong’s THE
LAST DAyS OF CHEZ nOuS, Danny Boyle’s SHALLOW GRAVE, Thom Fitzgerald’s
THE HAnGInG GARDEn, Michael Winterbottom’s WELCOME TO
SARAJEVO and Hans­Christian Schmid’s STORM.

In the Limelight: Isabella rossellini
With Isabella rossellini.
Moderated by Peter Cowie.
17:00 | Hau 1
As the daughter of Ingrid Bergman and Roberto Rossellini,
Isabella Rossellini has been in the limelight her entire life. An actress,
writer and director, it was her gut­wrenching performance in David
Lynch’s BLuE VELVET which shot her to fame, and subsequently her
prominent roles, among others, in DEATH BECOMES HER, IMMORTAL
BELOVED and WyATT EARP. She also delivered an unforgettable per formance
in Canadian avant­garde filmmaker Guy Maddin’s THE SADDEST
MuSIC In THE WORLD and narrated his film BRAnD uPOn THE BRAIn! at
the 2007 Berlinale. The famed actress then turned her hand to writing
– collaborating with Maddin on My DAD IS 100 yEARS OLD, a film about
her father – and directing. She wrote, directed and starred in the
delightfully surreal short film series GREEn PORnO about animal sex.
Isabella Rossellini, Jury President of the 61st Berlin International Film
Festival, will talk about the various transitions in her professional life,
her recent foray into writing and directing and her spirited engagement
in human rights advocacy. The session will commence with the screening
of My WILD LIFE, a documentary film that portrays her life and
work by German director Gero von Boehm.
two Producers Sharing their Secrets
Carole Scotta and Paul trijbits.
17:00 | Hau 2
Many jobs in the film industry are well­defined, for example,
that of the director, scriptwriter or director of photography. Any
de fi nition of the role of the film producer is imprecise at best! Film
pro duction requires someone who has the expertise and vision to
take decisions through all four stages of filmmaking. uS­American film
producer Richard Zanuck once said: “The producer is like the con ­
duc tor of an orchestra. Maybe he can't play every in stru ment, but he
knows what every instrument should sound like.” Pro duction neces ­
si t ates a command of hundreds of details while keeping the broad
objective of the film firmly in view. This simultaneously implies providing
in sights and feedback on the creative aspects of filmmaking.
Two veteran film producers, Carole Scotta (THE CLASS and BLACK
HEAVEn) and Paul Trijbits (TAMARA DREWE and TOAST – which features
in this year’s Berlinale), who between them have been involved in the
production of up to a hundred films and received numerous awards
and nomi nations, go behind the scenes to explain not just their role
vis­à­vis finance, marketing and distribution, but also the creative
elements to being a producer. Giving examples of some of their past
projects, they will focus on the role of producers as sparring partners,
working closely with directors right from the start, connecting content
with the harsh but creative reality of producing films.

your body Speaks: the art of Presenting your film
Jean-Louis rodrigue.
17:00 | Hau 3, top floor
How the director and producer present their project to
potential studio executives and investors often determines if the film
will be made. Effective presentation requires clarity of expression,
confident body language, accessing the imagination and engaging
the audience’s attention by connecting to their emotions. This involves
under standing how to use “watcher identification“ and empathy as a
way to connect and “seduce” your audience, using mind mapping to
plan a presentation that communicates effectively, developing physical
and mental coordination in order to act out the story dynamically
in time and space, using heroism as a way of making your presentation
un for gettable, and connecting to your senses to create the “dream
world” of your story so they “hear and see it”. This is an interactive,
hands­on workshop led by acting coach, movement trainer, choreographer
and senior teacher of the Alexander Technique Jean­Louis
Rodrigue. Some Talents will have the opportunity to present their
projects to Rodrigue in front of an audience as practical application.
This workshop is open primarily to directors, writers, and producers.

Let’s Make It Legal
Mareile büscher and Michael C. donaldson.
In cooperation with Raue LLP.
11:00 | Hau 3, top floor
One of the major worries of a filmmaker is the threat of a lawsuit,
and consequently the fear of the completed film languishing in
legal limbo for an indefinite period of time. Indeed, filmmaking is and
should be a creative endeavour, but in order that this creativity is recognised
and appreciated, it is vital to invest attention and resources
to the legal aspects of filmmaking. In fact, taking care of these rather
unglamorous issues in a timely manner can be just as important to the
ultimate success of the film as having a great script, an outstanding
cast, spectacular cinematography or stunning special effects.
This session focuses on the legal issues likely to be encountered
during film production. Michael C. Donaldson has represented
writ ers, directors, producers and artists for over 30 years; his book
“Clear ance and Copyright: Everything the Independent Filmmaker
needs to Know” is used as a textbook in over 40 colleges and uni versities.
Join ing him onstage is Mareile Büscher, legal counsel at Raue
LLP, who specialises in intellectual property matters, media and entertainment
law and copyright litigation and negotiation; she is also a
lecturer on art and copyright law at various institutions. The two legal
counsels will advise, using examples from the productions they have
dealt with – Donaldson in north American and Büscher in Europe – on
what to beware of when making films.

In cooperation with Camelot Broadcast Services.
feb 14, 13:00 | Shuttle leaves at 12:30 from Hau 2
feb 15, 10:00 | Shuttle leaves at 9:30 from Hau 2
Camelot‘s camera workshop during the Campus offers participants
the possibility to see first­hand and ask questions about a
variety of cameras. They will be demonstrated and guided through
the cameras’ many functions and possibilities. Of particular interest
will be Sony‘s F35, the Arri Alexa, the Red One with MX sensor, the
PMW F3, the Pro­35 adaptor and the Canon 7D with PL mount. Par ticipants
will be able to learn about the cameras‘ many different properties
and recording possibilities, and will also be warned of potential
pitfalls in addition to receiving tips on the best ways to avoid them.
This will place them in a better position to shoot material in a way that
best suits whatever production or post­production work flow they
might find themselves in, in the future. Moreover, this practical workshop
allows participants to gain real hands­on experience with the
cameras in question and to try them out for themselves. This way, they
can perform their own tests, whether shoulder­held or tripod­based.
excursion to the Costume House theaterkunst
In cooperation with Theaterkunst.

at the entrance to Hau 1
Whether it is a dark thriller, a heart­warming comedy, an opulent
period drama or a racy science fiction film – they are all fitted
with costumes and accessories at the Costume House Theaterkunst.
The largest and oldest costume house for film, television, theatre and
advertising in Germany, the institution celebrated its hundredth
anniversary in 2007. With branches in Hamburg, Munich and Cologne,
and headquarters in Berlin, the costume house offers about 10 million
pieces from all styles, epochs and trends, making it possible to trace
the past decades of film history and costume equipment. They have
fitted such films as VARIETé, BEn HuR, METROPOLIS, and more recently,
the likes of InGLOuRIOuS BASTERDS, THE READER and THE WHITE RIB-
BOn. Innumerable rows of clothes and accessories, the latter in clu des
scarves, gloves, glasses, jewellery, hats and umbrellas, from every era
imaginable adorn the racks of the Theaterkunst, making one wonder
about the extent of creative expression and extreme attention to contextual
and historical accuracy that go into putting together each
costume and film. This general tour is open to ten Talents.

Every gesture has enormous implications in telling the story
and revealing the character. The workshop will explore the elements
that make an actor charismatic, emotionally authentic and clearly expres

the basic principles of the Alexander Technique, connecting to breath

Wed 16, 10:00 + 12:30
The European Film Market (EFM), a film trade fair, is a major
industry meeting for the international film circuit. For nine days during
the Berlinale, film professionals have the opportunity to find out about
the latest productions and developments in the global film scene. The
annual EFM acts as a vital barometer for the upcoming film year, attracting
distributors, film buyers, producers, financiers and co­production
agents, as it assists their positioning in the market and offers op portunities
to develop and cultivate business contacts. This year, over 400
exhibitors from 54 countries and over 650 films will be presented to
industry visitors. The historical location of the EFM, which is housed in
the renaissance­style exhibition hall of the Martin­Gropius­Bau, lends
the vibrantly active event lasting nine days, a certain gla mour and
charm.
Excursions guided by Sydney Levine, who will also conduct a
“Meet the Expert“ session (see page 35), will enable Talents to acquaint
themselves with the structure and workings of the EFM. Talents spe cialising
in documentary filmmaking can also join the special tour to
“Meet the Docs”, a joint initiative with the European Documentary
network (EDn) and specifically dedicated to the documentary industry.
“Meet the Docs” aims to promote networking and exchange
among buyers, sellers, directors, producers as well as distributors of
docu mentaries.

Moderated by Maike Mia Höhne.
In cooperation with Berlinale Shorts.
17:00 | Hau 2
Short films that find their way into regular cinema programmes
remain few and far between. And although some dismiss short films
as a medium for filmmakers just starting out, this under­appreciated
genre is thriving, innovative and extremely active. What chances do
short films have these days to be screened in regular cinemas? new
strategies are being developed by proponents of the short film; one
such example is an initiative launched in Germany, which will be
presented by Catherine Colas (ZDF/ARTE). Berlinale Shorts curator
Maike Mia Höhne will discuss, the various ways, means and actions
undertaken to ensure that shorts get to the big screen, with Catherline
Colas, Alexander Stein, Interfilm Festival producer, and Rudolf Worschech,
chief editor of the German film magazine EPD Film. Addit ­
i onally, some of the shorts which have managed to reach cine mas and
audiences will be screened during this session.

val programmers and short film marketing institutions. The infor mal
event is meant to assist Talents in making contacts for screening and
distributing their short films, enquiring about oppor tunities, potential

Films using 3D technologies have gained immense populari
ty with audiences and filmmakers in recent years. The 3D experience
provides audiences with a new immersive experience while it gives
film makers the opportunity to narrate stories in ways that are more
ela bo rate, more life­like than ever before and to push the boundaries
of filmmaking to the limits of their imagination.
Internationally renowned filmmaker Wim Wenders, who has
made masterpieces such as WInGS OF DESIRE, the Cuban music
documentary BuEnA VISTA SOCIAL CLuB and PARIS, TEXAS, presents
his latest documentary PInA, a 3D dance film that is a tribute to the late
German contemporary dancer and choreographer Pina Bausch, at this
year’s Berlinale. As Wenders explains, “The two­dimensional cinema
screen is just not capable of capturing Pina Bausch’s work, either
emotionally or aesthetically. When I watched her dance for the first
time twenty­five years ago, I was captivated and deeply moved. I was
able to understand human movement, gestures and feelings in a
whole new way. And this magic is what I would like to translate to the
screen […] 3D gives us the possibility of taking the audience directly
onto the stage, into the middle of the event”.

Choosing Personal Strategies in daily Life
Workshop by thomas biniasz.
10:30 | Hau 3, top floor
Any kind of creative work requires the ability to grasp something
that exists purely in the imagination and shape it into something
tangible and successful. Translating innovative ideas into reality
requires a creative strategy. This hands­on workshop, led by psy chologist,
executive coach and management consultant Thomas Biniasz,
focuses on learning to define yourself and your projects in the present,
visualising possible options for the future and developing and improving
decision­making in order to synchronise the present and the
future.
Biniasz, whose core competencies comprise executive coaching,
developing and implementing leadership programmes and facilitating
change processes in large organisations, will take you through
the three­phased “Walt Disney Strategy“ which divides the world into
dreamers, realists and critics. This workshop, designed for up to 20
participants, will help you learn about your personal goals and your
professional positioning to enhance your individual impact.

Incorporating fictional­style elements in documentary films
have enriched the genre tremendously and resulted in compelling
storytelling taken from reality. yet, critics question re­enactments,
stag ing of interviews or even the adding of music in documentary
films. On this panel are two outstanding filmmakers who have creat ­
ed their own unique filmic language in both their documentary and
fictional work: Andres Veiel is considered one of Germany’s leading
documentary filmmakers; his latest feature IF nOT uS, WHO? features in
this year’s Berlinale Competition. Veiel’s social and political viewpoint
is strongly reflected in the choice of themes of his re mark able productions,
for example, the documentary BLACK BOX BRD and the
feature THE KICK. Another preeminent filmmaker, Heddy Honigmann
is noted for her ability to make an emotional connection with people
she films; her subjects have included cab drivers in Peru, immigrant
musicians on the Parisian metro and Cuban exiles in new Jersey.
Winner of major awards at festivals around the world, her artistic
œuvre has been honoured with retrospectives, for example, at the
MOMA in new york and Arsenal Cinema in Berlin. Through examples
from their respective filmographies, the experts will discuss the extent
to which directors can create their own filmic reality when making
docu mentaries or use documentary elements when making fiction
films.
Cinematography: the establishing Shot
edward Lachman. Moderated by ben Gibson.
14:00 | Hau 1
One of the most significant cinematographers of independent
and Hollywood cinema, Ed Lachman has worked with directors such
as Werner Herzog, Wim Wenders, Todd Haynes, Todd Solondz, Steven
Soderbergh and ulrich Seidl, and is reputed to successful switch bet ­
ween documentary and fictional forms. “It’s not a cameraman’s job to
make nice pictures,” says Lachman, “but to bring out the truth.” His
guiding principle can be seen in the multitude of films he has shot,
such as THE VIRGIn SuICIDES, FAR FROM HEAVEn – which earned him an
Academy Award nomination, ERIn BROCKOVICH, DESPERATELy SEEKInG
SuSAn and the documentaries LIGHTnInG OVER WATER and LA SOu-
FRIèRE. This highly acclaimed director of photography, who is also a
filmmaker – he directed the controversial KEn PARK together with
Larry Clark in 1995, will show excerpts from some of his independent
and Hollywood film projects and elaborate on his style of working and
his artistic influences, as well as on how one can create a particular
look and atmosphere of a film from the start, one that penetrates with
insight and accuracy and pervades until the end.

The look, the style of movement and the ability to adapt these
to the different character roles and filmic setting are core aspects of
the actor’s craft. Equally crucial to bringing characters of a script to life
is the smooth and effective delivery of dialogue. This workshop of the

actors reading vital scenes from a preselected script of the Script
Station. Mentor Alby James will work with Talent actors and scriptwriters
on building characters, exploring how characters would act,
react and talk in a variety of circumstances and in the different
situ at ions portrayed in each scene. Alby James, a successful theatre
direc tor for fifteen years before he moved into films, radio and
television drama, was previously head of development for two years
with EOn Screenwriters’ Workshop in London and is currently in dependent
producer. Scriptwriters will have the opportunity to ob serve

queer cinema originated in times when queer opinions and
lifestyles weren’t as yet part of the prevailing film industry in western
countries. queer filmmakers experimented with new, different forms
of storytelling working with low­budgets and digital shooting formats
way before the mainstream caught up with them. not only has queer
cinema established itself as a thriving niche in present times, it has
also been successful in forging greater mainstream acceptance of
queer perspectives in cinema and everyday culture. At the same time,
queer cinema appears increasingly less interested in demonstrating
the importance of “daring to be different“, but more in celebrating the
fact that “queer“ is now somewhat “normal“. Is this what the queer
movement has been striving to achieve? How does one define a
queer film today and are there differences at an international level?
Cele bra ting the 25th TEDDy AWARD, the queer film prize of the
Berlinale, five prominent filmmaking pro fessionals come together on
this panel: Filmmaker and queer activist Wieland Speck, who is one of
the initiators of the TEDDy AWARD in 1985; renowned indie producer
Christine Vachon, who has produced many of the iconic queer films of
the past two decades; Thai filmmaker Thunska Pansittivorakul, whose
THE TERRO RISTS premieres in this year’s Berlinale Forum; Canadian
filmmaker, video artist and activist John Greyson, whose uRInAL
(1989) and FIG TREES (2009) both won TEDDy AWARDS at the Berlinale;
and Monika Treut, one of Germany's most preeminent directors when
it comes to queer films, whose GEnDERnAuTS won the TEDDy AWARD
in 1999. They will discuss the concept and form of the “queer film“, the
possible future role of queer cinema and the challenges faced by
filmmakers in less queer­friendly parts of the world.

dial f for fiction: Script Station Presentation
Moderated by Merle Kröger.
In cooperation with German Federal Film Board (FFA) and SOURCES 2.
14:00 | Hau 3, White Stage
It isn’t the director alone who makes a great film artistic. They
do so because they work with exceptional, artistic scripts. The best film
scripts are therefore lasting works of art which contain moments of
bril l iance, elegance and emotionality that make us want to return to
them time and time again. As every year, the Script Station 2011 will
be a fascinating showcase of current global storytelling – locally rooted
in twelve writers’ experienced reality and personal imagination.
One topic depicted in several stories is farewell – as a long process of
accompanying a mother with dementia, as a harsh break when a wife
suddenly disappears, leaving her husband thrown out of his daily
routine, as a painful experience in letting go an impossible love to save
one’s own identity. Reflections of world politics shine through highly
personal encounters – taking place in Athens and Beirut, or even
beyond the coastline of Somalia. Remarkably strong women have to
deal with teenage pregnancy in the uS Bible Belt or with the drug
scene in Bucharest, with prejudice in Jordan and uganda. While male
protagonists catch our hearts in their vulnerability: be it an outcast
young rebel from rural India or a boy in love with death on the island
of Borneo, Indonesia. These screenplays, at various stages of de velopment,
will be discussed for the first time as works in progress by
their writers and expert mentors, each depicting the aural, visual and
lingual elements required to transform their stories into cinema.

Claudia Llosa, Kornél Mundruzcó and abderrahmane Sissako.
Moderated by dorothee Wenner.
In cooperation with ACPFILMS and Robert Bosch Stiftung.
14:00 | Hau 1
The most powerful stories emerge from the reality one is most
engaged in. They are linked to the place(s) you come from, situations
you’ve experienced and reflect issues that deeply move and interest
you. In the words of award­winning filmmaker and producer Ab de rrahmane
Sissako, “When you work as a filmmaker, you have an intense
desire to express yourself and I think that the best way to do so is to
speak about oneself or one's experiences”. But how does one transform
small, unique stories into compelling narratives that appeals to in ternational
audiences?
On stage with Abderrahmane Sissako, whose sharply political
films such as BAMAKO and LIFE On EARTH are fitting critiques of globalisation,
colonisation and social justice, is critically acclaimed filmmaker
Claudia Llosa, who won the 2009 Golden Bear and an Academy
Award nomination for THE MILK OF SORROW, and Hungarian director
and 2003 Campus alumnus Kornél Mundruczó, whose TEnDER SOn –
THE FRAnKEnSTEIn PROJECT screened in competition at Cannes in
2010, his current project features in the 2011 Berlinale Co­Production
Market. The noted filmmakers, whose films are deeply grounded in
stories from their own backyard and have received tremendous
international recognition, will elaborate on how they decide which
stories to develop into films and what makes a local film an international
one. They will discuss the significance of support at a national
and regional level, particularly if one is keen on working and distributing
films internationally.
barbara Hammer:
Making Movies Out of Sex and Life
barbara Hammer.
Moderated by Stefanie Schulte Strathaus.
In cooperation with Berlinale Forum Expanded.
14:00 | Hau 2
She has inspired a generation of queer, feminist and avantgarde
artists and filmmakers. Barbara Hammer, a highly prolific visual
artist working primarily in film and video, has made over eighty films
and videos in the past forty years. Galvanised by the second wave of
feminism, Hammer soon became a pioneer of queer cinema. Although
the subjects she addresses are astonishingly diverse, her innovative
and playful approach to form is unchanging. Her work is about re vealing,
showing, expressing, uncovering that which has not been seen
before. “I try to give voice and image to those who have been denied
personal expression.” Her experimental films of the 1970s dealt with
taboo subjects through performance, in the 1980s she used optical

printing to explore perception and the fragility of 16mm film itself,
and in the 1990s she began making documentaries about hid den
aspects of queer history. Her documentaries tell the stories of people
who have been excluded and relegated to the margins of history and
are often essay films that are multilayered and engage audiences
viscerally and intellectually with the goal of activating so c i al change.
Each decade has marked a new direction in her work as she continues
her inward exploration with an unfailing radical sincerity to talk about
sexuality, womanhood, illness, aging and mortality.
Her film A HORSE IS nOT A METAPHOR won the 2009 TEDDy
AWARD for Best Short Film, and her most recent GEnERATIOnS (made
with Gina Carducci) celebrated its world premier at the MOMA in
new york in 2010. Barbara Hammer, who will present the two films
GEnERATIOnS and MAyA DEREn’S SInK at the Berlinale Forum Expanded
this year, will talk about the evolution of her wide­ranging body of
avant­garde films and on how she views her own creative trajectory.

Turning a fascinating idea grounded in reality into a factual
work of art is indeed a long and lengthy process. The Doc Station gives
a unique snapshot of the world, seen through the eyes of 12 filmmakers
from five continents. They span from personal histories of violence

how the economic crisis hits a family business in China, and how an
Ethiopian girl is hit by her HIV diagnosis. The directors unravel complex
patterns of life in small­town Germany, in Barcelona’s suburbia,
mov ing from new Zealand to China, and from Chile to Sweden. They
seduce us with the timeless idea of love in Mexico, and with the
ancient songs of Belize. And last but not least, they surprise us with the
story of a Kenyan female truck driver, and the dilemma of two cagefighting
friends in Germany, who have to face each other. These stories
of the Doc Station, currently at different stages of development, will
be presented for the first time to a professional audience.

the Great World of Sound
Master class with Michael Nyman.
Moderated by Peter Cowie.
17:00 | Hau 1
Scoring for film is not a solo venture, but rather a collaborative
project that requires a comprehensive understanding of the film and
the aim of the filmmaker, envisaging it from a sonic perspective before
bringing it to life. That’s what most people are familiar with vis­à­vis
the music of Michael nyman – the distinguishing style of his film
scores. Having worked as a film composer for over 30 years, he has
composed a string of notable scores for over ten films of British art
house director Peter Greenaway, several Michael Winterbottom films,
and of course the astounding music for Jane Campion’s THE PIAnO.
But nyman is more than just a film composer – with over 300 works
only ten percent are film scores. He is also a conductor, composer,
leader of the Michael nyman Band, photographer and filmmaker. In
this master class, nyman will explore ideas behind the tension which
exists between music/soundtrack composing, sound effects and
mov ing and still images, and how all of these interact and affect each
other in the completion of a film. Showing excerpts from his own films
as well as the commercial films he has scored, he will talk about his
approach and understanding of soundtrack composing from the
perspective of a visual artist and filmmaker.
Why Poverty?
don edkins and Hans robert eisenhauer.
17:00 | Hau 2
Myriad films have been made on poverty but a large pro portion
of them are stereotypical approaches often seen on television.
Experts call them “development porn“ as images of passive help lessness
and deprivation are easy to absorb and easier to ignore. “Why
Poverty?” aims to initiate a global dialogue on poverty through public
media, challenging people to participate and come up with their own
solu tions to eradicate poverty. This cross­media project, launched by
Don Edkins, executive producer of the HIV/Aids project “Steps for the
Future” and “Why Democracy?”, will comprise eight one­hour and
thirty short documentary films to be distributed via innumerable
inter national broadcasters, the internet and mobile platforms during
a theme week in 2012. The films will depict how people find ways
to overcome and fight poverty in daily life, fostering the belief that
things can improve if we set our minds to it. Don Edkins will explain
the underlining concept and the objectives of the project, the broad
themes related to poverty under which the films will be made, and
the process of applying with short film ideas, which can be submitted
by interested Talents from February 2011. Joining him on stage is
co­initiator Hans Robert Eisenhauer (ZDF/ARTE), who will ela borate on
the process of initiating a project of this size and scale.

17:00 | Hau 2
The ninth edition of the Campus assists filmmaking pro fessionals
in their quest to position themselves in an ever­expanding and
fast changing world of cinema, where taking risks and facing chall enges
head­on is slowly becoming a matter of course. In the limelight
today are Campus alumni who have been invited to the Berlinale 2011
with the films or market projects they worked on since they attended
the Campus. Javier Fuentes­León and Rosario García­Montero will tell
us how they managed to make their film projects a reality, discussing
their personal and professional struggles in staying on the filmmaking
path and in positioning themselves. Presenting excerpts from their
films, they will elaborate on how they addressed the challenges that
arose whilst taking creative and strategic decisions for their projects,
decisions that have brought them back to the Berlinale with inspiring
new films.

He was once arrested for exhibiting a poster with the words
“Kill Helmut Kohl” (then chancellor of Germany), and a year later
form ed a political party, Chance 2000, which urged Germans to vote
for themselves in the 2000 national elections. Christoph Schlingensief,
the enfant­terrible of the German­speaking cultural scene, and certainly
its best­known artistic provocateur, passed away in August
2010. An artist, film, theatre and opera director, he was tireless in his
attempts to urge a critical reflection on issues such as immigration,
unemployment, rights of the disabled, etc.
This evening isdedicated to Christoph Schlingensief with selec
ted film, photo and sound material from his work in theatre, visual
art, film and opera. Five specialists, friends and companions will show,
comment and discuss their favourite Schlingensief work. With Anselm

Master class for production designers
at Costume House theaterkunst.
In cooperation with Theaterkunst.

Production designers and their teams would be at quite a loss
if it wasn’t for the Theaterkunst. A reputed institution with a long
tradition of outfitting films, Theaterkunst designs very personal and
in di vidual collections for each film in line with their specifications.
Their highly skilled team of wardrobe masters, tailors, designers and
costume painters custom­makes every piece of clothing (or disguise)
no matter how eccentric. As film costumes are a vital part of the narrative
elements and contribute to the overall effect of the film, nothing
about their form, colours, material, cut and design can be left to
chance. Visiting the Theaterkunst is similar to taking a journey into the
past where one revisits such classics as BEn-HuR, THE BLuE AnGEL and
METROPOLIS, and the more recent critically acclaimed films THE LIVES
OF OTHERS and InGLOuRIOuS BASTERDS.
A guided tour around Theaterkunst will introduce produc ­
t ion designer Talents to the vast collection of clothes and accessories
stretch ing back decades and to the tiny details that go into costume
and production designing. Talents will also benefit from an en lightening
case study of the historical drama THE LAST STATIOn, which was
filmed in Germany and supplied costumes by Theaterkunst. The film is
an adaptation from the best­selling historical novel by Jay Parini and
illustrates Russian author Leo Tolstoy’s struggle to balance fame and
wealth with his commitment to a life devoid of material things.

In cooperation with World Cinema Fund.
10:30 | Hau 3, top floor
With the aim of bringing new perspectives to the big screen
from countries with little financial aid, the World Cinema Fund, an
initiative of the Berlin International Film Festival, the German Federal
Cultural Foundation in cooperation with the Goethe­Institut, finances
independent productions from around the world. Supporting films
from Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, Central and South East
Asia and the Caucasus, the fund looks for independent cinema that
narrates local stories, embodies innovative ideas, concepts and aesthetics.
As Project Manager Vincenzo Bugno explains, “Our job is an
incredible privilege. We deal with countless stories, visions and visual
worlds but we are also very ambitious: we try our best in order to
support strong projects with an original artistic profile. And it works!”
Eighty fiction and documentary films have received funding from the
World Cinema Fund so far. One of their very recent success stories is
unCLE BOOn MEE WHO CAn RECALL HIS PAST LIVES by Thai director
Apichatpong Weera sethakul, which won the Palme d’Or in Cannes in

Paul Schrader. Moderated by Peter Cowie.
In cooperation with Berlinale Special.
11:00 | Hau 1
When the lights go off, the hall goes dark and the curtain rises,
its time to sit back and enjoy the film. The anticipation that comes with
the opening scene is often crucial to the success of the film as it sets
the tone and allows the viewer to delve into the world it is creating.
Many films hinge on the success of the opening scene as they compel
us to remember and relive the moment, either with relish or tense
with fear. Paul Schrader, uS­American screenwriter and director, has
written a range of outstanding films such as TAXI DRIVER – which
features in the 2011 Berlinale Special – RAGInG BuLL and THE LAST
TEMP TATIOn OF CHRIST, and is the acclaimed director of MISHIMA: A
LIFE In FOuR CHAPTERS, AMERICAn GIGOLO and BLuE COLLAR. With a
spotlight on the perfect opening scene, Schrader will talk about
creating an atmosphere that engages the audience, defines the film
and keeps the audience hooked from the very start. using excerpts
from the films he has written and/or directed, he will discuss how to
open a film story that imparts the opening thematic component of
everything that is to follow.
On track with Market trends:

12:15 | Hau 3, top floor
The 8th Berlinale Co­Production Market brings together about
500 reputed international producers, film financiers, sales agents and
distributors, as well as broadcasting and funding representatives, for
exclusive and concentrated networking. As its name implies, it is a service
platform for those interested in international co­production to
discover the most promising pre­selected projects, financing pos sibilities
and have productive exchanges on current topics. A per so nalised
schedule of one­to­one meetings with producers of selected
projects is put together for each participant based on their preference
of projects from the Co­Production Market’s catalogue. Since its in ­
cep tion in 2004, 115 films, comprising approximately 40% of all projects
presented at the Berlinale Co­Production Market, have been
made, premiered at major festivals worldwide and released in cinemas.
In addition, the Co­Production Market closely collaborates with the
Berlinale Talent Campus for the Talent Project Market, which opens up
tHurSday, feb 17
opportunities for young filmmakers to present their projects at the
Co­Production Market and connect with international film industry
professionals. Head of the Co­Production Market, Sonja Heinen, together

Moderated by Vincenzo bugno.
In cooperation with World Cinema Fund.
14:00 | Hau 1
Filmmaking remains politically sensitive facing censorship and
limitation of artistic expression in far too many countries, one such
example is Iran. Iranian filmmakers Jafar Panahi and Mohammad Rassoulov
were recently sentenced to imprisonment and banned from
making films. yet, films do get made in Iran, films that strive to tackle
social issues head­on. And despite the fact that Iran’s current creative
climate con tin ues to be in the clasp of a repressive regime, an im pressive
body of work earning critical acclaim and international recognition
is being pro duced. How do Iranian filmmakers deal with censorship
and the imposed restrictions, and what consequences does this have?
Pro mi nent Iranian filmmaker Rafi Pitts, whose film THE HunTER prem ie
red in the 2010 Berlinale Competition, will be joined by Mehrangiz
Kar, eminent Iranian human rights activist and author, Iranian director
Sepideh Farsi and Ali Samadi Ahadi, German filmmaker of Iranian
descent. They will talk about how filmmakers can join forces and
respond to political censorship.

can be quite intimidating. The Campus Post­Production Studio
is a technical hands­on training programme geared to assist Talents in
learning practical filmmaking techniques with the latest digital workflow
equipment and the guidance of prominent cine mato graph ers
and post­production experts. 24 Talents chosen to work with expert
practitioners in the Digital Workflow segment were able to shoot and

That extra little insight and input is sometimes all it takes to
polish a rough­cut and strengthen the narrative structure of a fiction
or documentary project. Internationally renowned editors join the
Campus Editing Studio to give advice and feedback that will help take
films that extra distance. Selected participants will present excerpts
from their rough­cuts and describe how the one­day session in the
editing room provided fresh insights and approaches to their projects.
In conversation with Susan Korda, the participants will explain the
challenges they identified within their rough­cuts and the various
approaches that were tried and tested in the Editing Studio.
Often the editing process can drag on longer than expected,
and film festival submission deadlines are fast approaching. When is
a rough­cut polished enough to present to festival programmers? Paz
Lázaro, Programme Manager, Berlinale Panorama, and Florian
Weghorn, Co­Director, Berlinale Generation, will join the conversation
and share their experiences when viewing rough­cuts during the
programming process. The discussion will turn to when and how to
present a rough­cut, as well as shedding light on the expectations of
programmers when they select a rough­cut for screening.

17:30 | Hau 1
Scoring for film is all about imagery – it not only helps to create
the ambience of the film and its plot, but also to elicit the emotions
of the characters. The transformative power of a score when com ­
bined with images is quite amazing. It guides emotions and can signal
a change in theme or mood, a quality in a particular character or lend
landscapes a certain character­like quality. As Francis Ford Coppola
stated, “Music is a big factor in helping the illusion of the film come to
life.” And it is most effective when it works subtly, evoking and tuning
the emotional response of the audience without them being aware of
it. This is the craft of the sound composer – complementing dialogues,
lighting, set­design and the montage of the film with music. Three
emerging composers and finalists of the Campus Score Competition
have spent the past week working on their scores under the guidance
of Michael nyman. The three composers join him on stage to discuss
the process of creating original music and weaving it seamlessly to
moving images. At the end of the session, the winner will be presented
the Score Competition Award 2011: a unique tour of the best sound
studios in Los Angeles, sponsored by Dolby Laboratories.
