This workshop is apropriate for anyone who wants to try and make a film with more images and less words. Participants explore personal techniques and poetic associations, using small cameras and digital editing. At the end of the week, we have a unique cinematic adventure for all... and a series of individual Haiku films. 

 

The "Haiku Film" workshop gives everyone a chance to create, shoot and edit a small film. The process encourages personal discovery and offers a chance to experiment with avant-garde techniques including sound. No advanced technical abilities are required. An own small camera and a laptop are useful.
