Aim of the practical: Link the theory section to the film production study for first year department students. The aim of the practical is to use theory knowledge from „Introduction to Film Production Studies“ and acquire basic practice. First year students acquire skills in practical examples: technical script analysis, developming technical elements and from simple assignments they develop (in simple form) a shooting plan and film budget. Acquiring this basic bearing in the production field and subsequent use benefits students in all studies. Some meet with others in these exercises. For Production dept. students the expanded number of theory introduction classes in the first semester is this practical experience useful for work on the first exercise of the first study year. With a good theory bearing, it is the foundation of all further study in production.
