Nu există nici o restricție în privința temei sau a subiectului piesei, singura cerință este ca aceasta să poată fi jucată de maxim patru actori. Rezidențele sunt remunerate, iar cazarea va fi asigurată pentru rezidenții din afara Clujului.

Rezultatele selecției vor fi anunțate în 15 mai.

Athens Summer School in Visual Ethnographic Practices

7 – 27 July 2025

Applicants: 

Students from the last year BA, Master & 1st year PhD 

in Social/Political Sciences, Humanities, Fine Arts & Film Studies

The Ethnofest – Athens Ethnographic Film Festival, in collaboration with the University of Amsterdam (UvA), organises the intensive “Athens Summer School in Visual Ethnographic Practices”. 

We are excited to welcome you to Athens from July 7th to July 27th. During your time here, you will immerse yourself in the city’s rich offerings, spark your creativity through the visual stimuli of your urban surroundings, participate in collaborative practices, and enhance your skills in ethnographic methods.

About the School

Visual anthropology and multimodal ethnography are increasingly crucial for those engaged in ethnographic research, visual analysis, or material culture studies, as well as for critical discussions about cinema and various forms of cultural expression. By exploring the methodologies available and reflecting on their application in urban settings, we aim to highlight the significance of visual ethnographic practices and documentary filmmaking.

The city of Athens offers an excellent setting for participants to explore what camera-based research can accomplish. During summer school, we will concentrate on visual theory and the practical application of audio-visual tools, while the courses will examine historical and contemporary examples of ethnographic documentaries. 

Structure of the school

The school will run from Monday, July 7th, 2025, until Sunday, July 27th, 2025. 

During these 3 weeks, the students will be:

Attending lectures

Planning small-scale research

Conducting fieldwork

Receiving supervision for their ethnographic projects

Filming 

Editing

Students will collaborate in teams of three to explore the process of creating a 10-minute short film. This project will provide them with valuable hands-on experience and creative skills. A selection of these films will be showcased in a special section called “Initiations” at the Ethnofest – Athens Ethnographic Film Festival in November of the same year.

The seminars and group meetings will run daily in a space situated at the centre of Athens, where the participants will be able to participate in the programme while taking inspiration from their urban surroundings. Field research will take place in selected areas and locations around the city. The seminars will provide students with a general framework of visual anthropology/ethnographic theory and methodology and a basic knowledge of all the steps of ethnographic video production. At the same time, the seminars will introduce them to contemporary approaches to field research in an urban setting through lectures, practical exercises, and guided walks. Students should expect to have one or two sessions per day (e.g. 3h- 6h), while, they will conduct fieldwork and filming in parallel.

Students are encouraged, though not required, to read the literature before their arrival in Greece to prepare for the seminars.

Aim

The school aims to provide the opportunity for students to experience filming in a highly diverse and multi-layered urban setting and obtain an overview of current debates and research topics in visual anthropology and multi-modal ethnography. By learning and participating in the film production process, the students gain practical experience in a new context, develop their skills, work in a team, make new contacts, and present their research topics.

Methodology

The summer school expects students to participate actively in all the courses and conduct visual ethnographic field research in group teams. Their small-scale ethnographic projects could focus on diverse research objects such as life stories,  popular beliefs, urban legends, material culture, performative practices, and intangible culture (music, dance, crafts, etc.). Students are encouraged to contact various people to discuss, interview, and materialize their topics, focusing their filming ethnographic process on specific neighborhoods, social networks, civil society organizations, etc. Broader societal questions/approaches that include politics, identities, gender perspective, immigration/migration, religious beliefs, social class, and human rights, among others, can be addressed and framed in concrete ethnographic filming projects. 

Participants will record and edit original filming material, which will be discussed under the guidance of experienced staff and presented/screened in the format of a short documentary at the end of the school. The supervisors will guide and encourage students to follow a clear idea and an ethnographically meaningful narrative plot to create their storytelling.  

Course requirements, language, and evaluation

The course is open to students from the last year of their BA to Master’s degree and first year PhD. All lectures will be delivered in English. The participant’s performance during courses, their final product (short film), and a one-pager presenting the film will be discussed at the end of the school. The student groups also have the opportunity to submit their films – with minor revisions and corrections – to the special section of Ethnofest – Athens Ethnographic Film Festival titled “Initiations.”

Courses period, dates, and times

The school consists of 21 intensive days with lectures, field research, filming, and editing. Classes, including breaks, are daily for the first half of the school term. The rest of the time, students will conduct fieldwork research, filming, and editing under the supervision of their tutors. 

Participation – application

Students can apply using this online application form. 

Application Timeline

Application Deadline: Friday, 21st of March 2025

Notification of Successful Applicants:  Friday, 4th of April 2025

Confirmation of Participation: by Friday, 11th of April 2025*  

*Note: Failure to confirm will result in the position being offered to the runners-up on the waiting list.

Zoom Call with Final Participants:  Thursday, 24th of April 2025

Students are encouraged to bring their own equipment and laptops in order to make their training process smoother; however, the summer school will provide in-rotation cameras, audio equipment, and laptops for editing per group of students. Please fill in the relevant section of the application form.  

The number of participating students is limited (max. 18 to 21). 

Costs and subsidies

The total cost of the course is 850€ for EU and international students. Greek students are eligible for a concession fee of 600€. Students are expected to cover their flights from their country of residence to Athens and back, as well as their accommodation and lunch and dinner costs. Upon confirmation of the participants, the selected students will be contacted to discuss the prospect of sharing accommodation. 

Important information for candidates applying to the Athens Summer School in Visual Ethnographic Practices

As the programme takes place during the summer season, when the temperature in Greece is relatively high, we recommend that the participants keep this in mind while preparing for their stay. Lightweight clothing, portable fans, water bottles, and hats would be of great use.

What to expect

Three intensive weeks of theory courses, stimulating discussions and critical engagement, introduction to technological media to facilitate your filmmaking process, and consulting sessions with your tutors. Also, walks and cultural visits. These days will be heavily loaded to give the participants a complete sense of what visual ethnographic practices entail. For the smooth flow of the programme, it is essential to acknowledge the importance of team bonding, cultivating safe spaces for collective discussions, troubleshooting, and horizontal decision-making in the working groups. 

What not to expect

This is an ethnographic documentary filmmaking programme. Our primary concern is that the participants leave feeling richer in ethnographic documentary filmmaking rather than necessarily acquiring technological novelties to create a highly professional visual product. Prior knowledge of technical skills such as editing and shooting is appreciated and will be considered when forming teams to ensure skill diversity in each group. The equipment used will complement these goals but is not our main priority. 

Further announcements will follow at the end of the selection procedure around mid-May.

Teatrul Național Aureliu Manea Turda deschide un #opencall prin care caută dramaturgie pentru copii!

Căutăm texte pentru copii care nu au fost încă montate, scrise în ultimii ani (cât mai recente).

Așteptăm textele voastre la adresa proiecte.tnamt@gmail.com până în data de 1 mai 2025!

Căutăm aproximativ 20 de persoane pentru o filmare ce va avea loc la UNATC pe 24 martie, între 9:00 și 12:00. Scena se desfășoară într-o sală de facultate, așa că avem nevoie de participanți care să arate ca studenți – îmbrăcați casual, cu caiete, cărți, pixuri etc.

Pe platou vom asigura o masă de snacks-uri, apă, cafea și pizza.

Hoinar.Crossroads, proiect conex festivalului Hoinar.Odyssey 2025, este o serie de 5 instalații artistice ce vor reflecta cele 5 spectacole din festival. Fiecare instalație va include muzică nouă (compusă și imprimată/cântată live de studenți de la UNMB) și un scenariu de teatru non-verbal sau coregrafie care să exprime tematica din spectacol: călătoria (inițiere, căutare de sine, imigrație, călătoria sufletului între lumi, dilema răscrucii). Este de preferat ca instalațiile să fie făcute sub formă de scurt film, sau un performance care folosește un spațiu de dimensiuni restrânse. Esențial este ca ele să conțină atât un element muzical, cât și unul dramatic.

5 echipe de studenți selectați din cadrul UNATC și UNMB vor lucra fiecare la câte o instalație artistică ce va fi expusă în foaierul teatrului Act în fiecare seară de spectacol (cu excepția ultimei instalații care va fi expusă pe scena Ateneului Român).

Echipa de mentori din partea festivalului este formată din
– Actrița și cântăreața Sarah Gabriel (visiting professor la Royal Academy of Music, Londra)
– Regizorul Michael Hoffman (regizor a numeroase lung metraje printre care The Last Station – 2009, cu Helen Mirren și Christopher Plummer, și The Best of Me – 2014, cu James Marden și Michelle Monaghan)
– Pianistul Florian Mitrea (Royal Academy of Music, Londra)
Îndrumarea studenților se va face prioritar în mediul online, dată fiind echipa de profesori cu rezidențe în Marea Britanie și Statele Unite.

Desfășurare

– Lansarea apelului și selecția studenților – jumătatea lunii martie
– Primele apeluri cu profesorii – începutul lunii aprilie
– Masterclass/atelier online cu regizorul Michael Hoffman despre story-telling prin teatru și muzică – mijlocul lunii aprilie
– Al doilea apel cu profesorii – începutul lunii mai
– Expunerea instalațiilor artistice – 15-20 mai

Pentru înscriere, studenții sunt rugați să trimită un email de intenție la adresa admin@festivalulhoinar.ro, însoțit de un CV actualizat, până la data de 28 martie 2025, inclusiv.

PROTV le oferă posibilitatea de practică la serialul Tătuțu, în perioada 17 martie – 10 iunie 2025, studenților de la următoarele programe de studiu: Producție de film, Regie de Film și TV, Imagine de Film și TV.

Developing Art lansează un nou call: cercetător/cercetătoare interesat/ă de intersecția artei și tehnologiei!

De data asta, ne adresăm masteranzilor, doctoranzilor, asistenților de cercetare & cercetătorilor pe care îi preocupă zonele de intersecție dintre cercetarea artistică și cea tehnologică – noi vă oferim cadrul tocmai bun de observație practică: proiectul Performing the digital. in progress.

Contextul în care vei interveni

15 studenți la facultățile de arte și 4 mentori cu interese și experiență în coregrafie, muzică/sunet, arte vizuale și noile media vor intra, în săptămâna 13-17 aprilie, la Centrul Naţional al Dansului Bucureşti, într-un proces de cercetare colaborativă.

Scopul lor e de a chestiona artistic interacțiunea dintre tehnologie, corp și comunicare și o vor face lucrând împreună, în echipe interdisciplinare. După zilele de laborator, vor avea timp o lună să creeze o serie de lucrări artistice pe care Goethe-Institut Bucuresti le va găzdui, în perioada 21-27 mai, într-o expoziție multimedia.

Ce vei face tu?

Ca cercetător, vei însoți laboratorul artistic și perioada de lucru propriu-zis a tinerilor artiști și vei observa procesele interdisciplinare care s-a conturat. Le vei ilustra, apoi, într-o prezentare publică și un material scris. Textul scris va constitui baza unui viitor material științific publicabil într-o revistă de specialitate sau va completa un articol/o cercetare aflat/ă deja în stadiul de dezvoltare. Bineînțeles, cercetarea ta din cadrul proiectului va fi remunerată.

Cum aplici?

Trimiți până pe 30 martie (inclusiv), pe adresa asociatia.developing.art@gmail.com, un CV și o scrisoare de maximum o pagină în care să detaliezi cum se intersectează tema ta de cercetare cu contextul proiectului. Până pe 4 aprilie o să-ți transmitem rezultatul selecției.

Ținem pumnii și v-așteptăm!

Se caută actor cu vârsta între 18-22 ani, aspect adolescentin, înălțime peste 160 cm.

Logline:

Un tânăr de 17 ani, plin de vânătăi, sună disperat la 112, cerând ajutor. Printr-o serie de flashback-uri bruște și fragmentate, descoperim treptat că noaptea care a dus la acest apel ascunde coșmaruri mult mai întinecate decât părea la început.

Trimite-ne un mesaj cu:

• numele, prenumele, vârsta și înălțimea
• câteva poze cu tine (nu neapărat de studio, pot fi poze simple)
• link de Instagram sau ce social media folosești + nr, de telefon

la adresa de e-mail: maximilian.liford@gmail.com

Deadline: 23 martie

Proiectul nu face parte din programul de studii la UNATC

Asociația „Acasă la Hundorf” organizează programul anual de rezidențe artistice Școala de-Acasă / ȘAH, destinate artiștilor emergenți care activează în toate mediile artistice – incluzând film, teatru, literatură, arhitectură, etc. Prin rezidențe de creație petrecute în mijlocul unei comunități rurale prietenoase, oferim
timp și spațiu participanților pentru a-și dezvolta propriile proiecte.

Pentru prima dată, în ediția din 2025 introducem un focus tematic: MUNCA

Munca e ubicuă. O găsim în toate cotloanele, în toate formele și funcțiile posibile. Ne structurează existența, ne susține identitatea personală, și ne ține în viață. Munca e în fabrici și uzine, dar și acasă, în familie; într-o prietenie, și chiar și în iubire. E prezentă până și în pauze, când nu avem stare și ”muncim” pentru a deveni mai buni pe plan spiritual, psihologic, fizic.

În ediția din acest an a rezidențelor ȘAH suntem curioși să aflăm cum se reflectă aceste idei și schimbări prin ochii artiștilor, și cum se văd ele de la firul ierbii, din Hundorf.

Suntem deschiși la proiecte care se inspiră din realitățile locale și care chestionează rolul muncii în viața satului contemporan. Cum se transformă satele pe măsură ce universul muncii evoluează? Cum se raportează comunitățile rurale la schimbările economice și tehnologice? Suntem curioși să descoperim idei legate de muncă care să conecteze lumea mică din Hundorf cu lumea largă, internațională.

Ce presupune rezidența?

– O rezidență de 4 săptămâni în satul Hundorf (Viișoara, jud. Mureș) în perioada iunie-august.
– Organizarea și curatorierea unei expoziții de grup la Târgu Mureș cu proiectele realizate în timpul rezidenței. Expoziția este inclusă în programul NAG / Noaptea Albă a Galeriilor.
– Prezentarea proiectelor online pe website-ul asociației: www.acasalahundorf.ro

Aplicaţiile se depun în perioada 3 martie – 18 aprilie

Dacă ai o relație complexă (un situationship) cu lumea virtuală (don’t we all?), dacă te interesează noile media și lucrul cu alți studenți la facultățile de artă, hai în Performing the digital. in progress!

Ce se va-ntâmpla e că vei avea parte de-o săptămână de laborator (13-17 aprilie la Centrul Naţional al Dansului Bucureşti, 10:00-16:00) pe tema tehnologiei & impactului ei asupra corpului nostru, a felului în care comunicăm și, overall, a vieții de fiecare zi. În cercetarea asta, tu și ceilalți tineri artiști veți fi mentorați de:

• Andreea Novac (coregrafie)
• Vlaicu Golcea (muzică și sunet)
• Sabina Suru (arte vizuale)
• Cristian Iordache (tehnologie)

Mentorii o să vă ghideze în realizarea unei lucrări cu caracter video interdisciplinar, deci veți colabora unii cu alții & vă veți folosi de muzică, dans, imagine, sunet, noile media etc.

După o lună de producție efectivă (oferim un buget pentru asta, dar și un onorariu pentru fiecare din voi), lucrările se vor prezenta la (20-27 mai), într-o expoziție colectivă. Curator e Andrei Tudose.

Înscrierea e simplă: așteptăm pe asociatia.developing.art@gmail.com CV-ul tău și un filmuleț scurt, de maxim 3 minute, în care să ne spui de ce vrei în proiect.

May the odds be with you!
