Forretningsplan for Film-Efterskole I Ebeltoft Forretningsplan for film-efterskole I Ebeltoft Vi tror på, at når helt unge filmmagere fra hele verden bor og lever et helt år sammen for at dyrke deres fælles passion, så vokser ikke bare deres evne til at lave film, men også deres mod og lyst til at gøre en forskel i verden 3 Baggrundsoplysninger Projektejer: Eva Klinting Nørreport 14 8400 Ebeltoft [email protected] www.evaklinting.com 4 Indhold Resume ............................................................................................................................................. 6 Værdigrundlag ................................................................................................................................. 9 Det fokuserer vi på .......................................................................................................................... 11 Det tilbyder vi ................................................................................................................................ 14 Filmfag ............................................................................................................................................ 16 Fællesfag ......................................................................................................................................... 19 Pris .................................................................................................................................................. 21 Markedsanalyse .............................................................................................................................. 24 Slag og markedsføring ................................................................................................................... 29 Handleplan ...................................................................................................................................... 30 Organisation .................................................................................................................................. 32 Personalepolitik .............................................................................................................................. 33 Etableringsbudget .......................................................................................................................... 35 Opstartsbudget .............................................................................................................................. 36 5 Resumé Vores vision er at starte en film-efterskole i Syddjurs i tæt samarbejde med filmbranchen samt med lokale personer og organisationer, der arbejder for at udvikle Syddjurs. Planen er, at vi åbner dørene for elevholdet på en helt ny efterskole i Syddjurs i år 2021. Vi vil lave en film-efterskole, der er båret af tre tanker: • Vi vil være en skole for filminteresserede unge • Vi vil have elever fra hele verden • Vi vil klæde unge på til at kunne handle aktivt for en bedre verden lokalt og globalt Vi vil være en efterskole, der tilbyder god undervisning i filmskuespil, instruktion, filmmusik, redigering og alt hvad der hører til filmproduktion. Film skal forstås bredt som det medie, der benytter sig af levende billeder dvs. også tv, dokumentar, animationsfilm, kunstfilm, film på scenen og digital storytelling. Vi vil være ambitiøse omkring vores undervisningstilbud. Skolen vil holde tæt kontakt med filmbranchen og med de ungdomsuddannelser, der aftager elever med interesse for film. Det gøres bla. via et advisory board, hvor der sidder filmfagfolk. Advisoryboard I advisoryboardet sidder: • Ditte Mejlhede, Filmkonsulent i hele landet • Steen Risom, Leder af Aarhus Filmby • Erik Bjerre, Leder af POV-projektet, Aarhus Filmby • Rune Lünell, Leder af HF-film i Aarhus • Line Arlien-Søborg, gymnasielærer og masser af erfaring med undervisning i filmproduktion • Aage Rais, Aarhus Filmværksted • Alice Bonde Nissen, Seminarielærer • Hanne Algot Jeppesen, Aarhus Billed- og medieskole • Simon Falkentorp, Aarhus Billed- og medieskole • Mille Obel Høyer, initiativtager til kreativ gymnasieuddannelse 6 Storytelling Vi ser et kæmpe potentiale i, at unge mennesker lærer at fortælle historier om sig selv og verden på så spændende måder som muligt – både analogt og digitalt. Vi ønsker en skole, der oser af kreativitet, og hvor eleverne bliver fortrolige med at arbejde med film. Et af formålene med at drive efterskole er, at unge mennesker får et dannelses-år af deres forældre og samfundet, hvor de kan modnes som mennesker og bliver klar over, hvad der driver dem i tilværelsen. Det at lave film forbinder dem både med de historier, de har med sig i rygsækken og de drømme de har for fremtiden. Det giver dem mulighed for at dele deres livserfaringer med andre unge og give de fornemmelser og anelser de har om fremtiden form gennem levende billeder og lyd. Samtidigt er filmarbejde én af de arbejdsprocesser, der er om noget kræver samarbejde og evne til at give sig lidt og tænke med på andres gode ideer. Der er både æstetiske læreprocesser forbundet med filmarbejde og læreprocesser, der handler om samarbejde og indsigt og i projektarbejdets faser. Dannelsesmål Vi har som dannelsesmål at klæde unge mennesker på til at møde de udfordringer, som verden står overfor i den fremtid, som bliver deres. Det kan være svært at spå om, hvad mennesker har brug for at kunne i år 2050, men vi forsøger alligevel, for det er jo fremtiden, vi uddanner unge til. Allerede nu er der udfordringer, der kræver viden om verden, og som kræver, at unge træner empati med mennesker, der har et andet udgangspunkt end én selv. Udfordringer som beskyttelse af miljøet, konfliktløsninger, politisk vold osv. er udfordringer, der kræver, at mennesker kan samarbejde på tværs af grænser og kan begå sig på flere sprog og i flere kulturer. Derfor ønsker vi at fremme et internationalt miljø på skolen, hvor der også er elever fra andre lande. Det betyder at dele af undervisningen foregår på engelsk. Vi vil lære vores elever noget om bæredygtighed, ligeværdighed og tolerance og vi vil gerne opøve deres evne til at drømme stort og mod til at turde føre drømme ud i livet. Vi har også som mål, at skolen bliver værdifuld for Syddjurs. Det er med andre ord vigtigt for projektet, at andre der arbejder med udviklingen af Mols og Syddjurs lige nu, kan se værdien i, at der også kommer en efterskole med fokus på film, bæredygtighed og international forståelse. Vi vil gerne ride med på den bølge af politisk velvilje, lyst til at kulturelt entreprenørskab og behov for at tænke nye samarbejdsstrukturer, som vi ser i projekter som Grobund, NyMalt og Mols i Udvikling for at nævne nogle af de mest markante lokale initiativer, som vi ser. Der er også flere og vi håber at kunne sammensætte en bestyrelse, der har blik for det. 7 Mange unge har en begrænset viden om hvordan livet leves i andre kulturer, og kan være usikre på, hvordan man taler med nogen, der ikke taler samme sprog, men samtidigt er de åbne og nysgerrige og de er et sted i deres liv, hvor de er i stand til at knytte meget stærke venskaber, som holder hele livet 8 Værdigrundlag Vores vision er, at vi åbner dørene for elevholdet på en helt ny efterskole i Syddjurs i år 2020. Vi vil lave en film-efterskole, der er båret af tre tanker: • Vi vil være en skole for filminteresserede unge • Vi vil have elever fra hele verden • Vi vil klæde unge på til at kunne handle aktivt for en bedre verden Vi vil være en efterskole, der tilbyder god undervisning i filmskuespil, instruktion, filmmusik, redigering og alt hvad der hører til filmproduktion.

Inspirationen til skolen er bla. hentet fra European Film College i Ebeltoft. 9 Skolen vil arbejde for, at unge mennesker bliver klædt bedst muligt på til at tage vare på sig selv og hinanden. Vi tror på, at verden har brug for nye måder at tænke på. Vi ønsker, at vores elever sammen med os undersøger, hvordan man kan leve mere bæredygtigt. Vi ønsker, at vores elever udfordrer hinanden og udvider deres forestilling om verden. Det gør ikke noget, at de undrer sig over hinanden og kommer på tværs af hinanden, så længe de lærer noget værdifuldt af det. Ud over det, så ønsker vi, at de på det rent praktiske plan forbereder sig

  • Nikolaj Kunsthal Press Release the Museum Is Closed
    PRESS RELEASE “THE MUSEUM IS CLOSED – AN EXHIBITION ABOUT KNUD PEDERSEN” December 10 2015 – January 24 2016 Opening: Wednesday December 9 2015, 5-8pm With an untraditional exhibition format, Nikolaj Kunsthal presents a retrospective exhibition about Knud Pedersen. It is the story of a versatile and productive artist, project maker, resistance fighter, author, and exhibition organizer. An art library, football in the dark, nine seconds of screaming, the loaning of the crown jewels, portrait paintings of travellers in an airport, a museum of lifts, and a Copenhagen museum of modern art. With his wealth of ideas and projects, many of which were never realised, Knud Pedersen, who died last December, was one of a kind on the Danish art scene. In his projects, the potential of ideas and thoughts was turned into the artistic material that tested its surroundings. To him, the pivotal points were an exploration of what art could be used for and how best to make it for everyone. He aimed for the utopian, rejected authorities, and the range of his imagination seemed to know no bounds. MUSEET ER LUKKET (“THE MUSEUM IS CLOSED”) is a retrospective exhibition with no works. The title is inspired by Knud Pedersen: In 1967, he pretended to have created a much sought-after art museum in Copenhagen that he named Copenhagen Museum of Modern Art. Despite the fact that this museum was never given the permission to open by the Copenhagen Municipality, Knud Pedersen would later travel the world as the Director of this enterprise. The idea of the museum became the actual work.

  • The Øresund Region on Film and Television, 1999–2014
    ‘A Symptom of Something Real’: The Øresund Region on Film and Television, 1999–2014 Pei-Sze Chow University College London Ph.D. Scandinavian Studies 2015 1 SIGNED DECLARATION I, Pei-Sze Chow, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. __________________________ 2 ABSTRACT The Øresund is a transnational metropolitan region comprising Greater Copenhagen (Denmark) and Skåne (Southern Sweden), joined by the Øresund Bridge built over the strait separating the two nations. Historically a site of cultural encounter between Denmark and Sweden, the region took shape as a political-economic entity during the 1990s against a wider backdrop of European Union initiatives to encourage cross- border cooperation. One aim of the Øresund development strategy is to foster regional culture and identity; the production and distribution of audiovisual media supported by the respective national film policies and industries are key here. I explore how the Øresund region has been imagined and critiqued in popular film and televisual texts since the 1990s and provide new readings of a largely un- researched body of material related to the development of this transnational region. Drawing on a small-nation approach to cinema, I study the emergence and development of screen culture in the region and how audiovisual texts construct the sense of an ‘Øresund identity’, a cultural and geopolitical identity that is still being forged and negotiated by various actors. In particular, I investigate how the region’s spatial identity is mediated to local and international audiences through representations of postindustrial urban change and intercultural encounters.
