The EuShorts Festival is planning an audiovisual workshop for 2009, with young people of five European countries participating. The aim is to have the debuting artists arriving in Budapest to test their creativity, their artistic ambitions and to acquire useful experience
with the help of Hungarian filmmakers. They will also have the opportunity to work with several European directors invited to the festival and get acquainted with the works of Hungarian artists and cultural institutions.
The one-week workshop will offer the conditions for cooperating in an environment encompassing several areas of audiovisual artistry (film, photography, graphic design, new media). The workshop aims to help participants create something new and fresh by harnessing the creative potential in this international and interdisciplinary environment through roundtable discussions and several unique workshop tasks.
The event will draw focus on the diversity of methods in urban audiovisual expression, the creative games with cinematical genres and the reconsideration of traditional aesthetic borders. The workshop aims to utilize imagination, spontaneity and professional
ingenuity. To track the influence participants have on their own professional and cultural development and to see how they are able to influence the image of Budapest of locals and foreigners through their work.
The workshop and its program is arranged and coordinated by the EuShorts team for simultaneously experiencing an intellectual challenge and creative entertainment.
