Electronic News – DEKRA Hochschule für Medien

Program :: Industry Zone :: Electronic News – DEKRA Hochschule für Medien

Electronic News is an interdisciplinary and intercultural project in the field of new media education, carried out in cooperation with DEKRA Hochschule für Medien in Berlin, the Academy of Art in Szczecin, and the University of Szczecin. Students and lecturers write about the events taking place as part of Szczecin European Film Festival ’16 and document them in Internet media throughout the festival. The project includes every stage of creating “electronic news”: research, editing, production, post-production, and broadcasting. It results in daily coverage, interviews, mini-reportages, and reviews published in the form of a live blog administered by professionals. The participants of the project co-create festival events in a way that is practical and develops the ability to collaborate in an international group. They take part in discussions concerning the place of new media in the contemporary world, learn how to be a journalist in an online editorial board, and co-organise talks with filmmakers and specialists. The European film festival therefore becomes a “practical laboratory for culture.” The international formula of the projects, including youth from Poland and Germany, together with the broad variety of topics (the lastest films touching upon issues that are important today) become the perfect ground for shaping intercultural dialogue.

The partners of Electronic News are the University of Szczecin and the Academy of Art in Szczecin.

The project is co-financed by the German-Polish Youth Office (DPJW/PNWM).
