Profis Plaudern Praxis XVI: Finding Truth and the Creative Process: Investigative Strategies in Film and Media Production

With this year's topic of Profis Plaudern Praxis XVI, we would like to take a closer look at the relationship between the creative process and finding truth and shed light on investigative strategies in film and media production. Established professionals from the fields of production, research, consulting and directing assist young talents in finding the right approach to their artistic project and in assessing what is necessary to produce credible work.

On November 15, four short lectures will open different perspectives on the balancing act between finding the truth and the creative process in film and media production. Afterward, individual questions can be addressed in a moderated panel discussion and one-on-one conversations, taking place at the media project center Offener Kanal in Kassel or via Zoom.
Language: German. Language one-on one conversations: German / English.

The lectures and one-on-one conversations are primarily addressed to students from the network of the Hessian Film and Media Academy (hFMA) and the participants of the 15th Hessian University Film Day. Other interested persons are welcome to join as well.

This year, the hFMA and the Kassel Dokfest are providing overnight accommodation and festival accreditation for students from Hessian universities who wish to take part in PPP.
The contingent is limited. If you are interested, please note this in your registration and send it by Tue, 5.11.24.

Free registration until November 14, via Anna Bell: bell@kasselerdokfest.de
