<\/a><\/p>\nWith this project, we aim to contribute to a higher level of media literacy among older adults, encourage intergenerational connection, and reduce generational misunderstandings. We also seek to increase the inclusion of senior citizens in the active life of the community and improve their quality of life. Regardless of their maturity or retirement status, older people can continue to actively contribute to their own development and to the development of their community\u2014especially through media and film literacy.<\/p>\n
The workshops are intended for anyone who wants to learn more about film and new media, about what their children or grandchildren are engaged in, and about what often remains hidden when we watch films, television, or play computer games on computers, tablets, and smartphones. Of course, we will not be checking ID cards\u2014participants under the age of 54 who wish to learn more about film and media are also welcome. However, in the case of high interest, priority will be given to retirees and unemployed persons.<\/p>\n
All participants will be provided with a free hot meal<\/strong>.<\/p>\nDESCRIPTION<\/strong><\/p>\nThe workshops are designed as an introduction to film and media creation through practical and interactive work. Participants will learn the basics of film language\u2014shots and framing, film genres, screenwriting, elements of editing, and the process of creating a fiction, documentary, animated, or experimental film. Through the workshops, the development of ideas and stories, teamwork, and creative expression will be encouraged. Participants will have the opportunity to try out different phases of film production\u2014from concept development and preparation, through filming, to final post-production.<\/p>\n
Special emphasis is placed on familiarizing participants with contemporary media and media content that young people use on a daily basis. The workshops are led by experienced film and media professionals with many years of experience in education and working with young people, and the program is adapted to the interests and prior knowledge of the participants.<\/p>\n
