💼 What the programme involves
Hamburg-Wilhelmsburg is the biggest river island in Europe and an ever-changing multicultural part of the city. Many different kinds of projects and events both big and small, such as the Hamburg international building exhibition (IBA), the Hamburg international garden show (igs) and Dockville/Artville have partly influenced the many different places, people and themes of the Wihelmsburg district. Even the current intensified accommodating of refugees is keeping the people of Wilhemsburg busy. Within the structure of this media workshop, your task is to use film to represent what is so particular about Wilhelmsburg and how people who live and work in the district deal with the socio-cultural and social changes and challenges in the area. Led by an experienced media pedagogue, you will develop your ideas for interviews, learn different camera techniques and how to cut and edit scenes. At the end of the project you will show your finished product in a self-produced programme, that will be shown in the TIDE TV television channel in Hamburg. In contrast with other ijgd media workshops, we are already providing you with the topic for filming. Have a look at the websites listed and think about whether you would like use film to represent how projects, events, and socio-cultural and social changes can influence a district. We would ask of you to capture many different voices and pictures, to promote the idea of giving a voice to people, who are usually very seldom heard. http://www.hamburg.de/wilhelmsburg/ http://www.iba-hamburg.de/en/iba-in-english.html http://www.hamburg.de/igs-2013/ http://en.msdockville.de/ http://www.wilhelmsburgonline.de/
