Course contents

The Implementation workshop is the main professional course for Documentary Dept. students. The focal point of its content is the most intensive communication with the workshop lead instructor. The Implementation workshop is a community arising from the mutual selection of the students and teachers in which free creative impulses arise and in the process of creation projects are improved in an atmosphere of regular collaboration, educationally effective sharing of experience in all phases of the rise of a work and in open discussions in which personal viewpoints, art and personal signature are refined and consolidated.

The foundation of the work is a thorough analysis of student proposals in a collective workshop and indivudal discussions about their social and artistic effect and a systematic presentation of how to proceed in their execution. The the work creation phase (shooting and composition finishing) the instructor analyses material, primarily in the editing room.

The Implementation workshop guides the student to no succumb to professional habits, but to try through their own investigations and searching for forms to surprise not only viewers but themselves as well. This leads the students to investigating manners of how to understand the current events and period in which we live and an ability to review and document it on film.
