day 4 @ Berlinale 2013

Oh wow... so many things to do, movies to see and events to attend, and it seems that everything happens at the same time!!!!

Today started with a great discussion panel of Ver.di regarding comditions of employment/production, retirement provisions, the role of politics in the whole scenario, suggestions to solve these problems we all are facing right now and so on and on; it was actually quite informative and interesting!

As the day went on, I attended another discussion panel, which was not only interesting but furthermore absolutely inspiring! Hosted by BVC the guests (Debbie McWilliams, Ros Hubbard, Lina Todd, Donna Morong, Anne Lindberg and John Sloss) were talking about "How does an actor become "seen" in the film business and how do the actors’ talent and team develop images and careers." A huge THANK YOU to all the guest speakers for their time and their contagious enthusiasm!

In the evening you've got a choice of several parties tonight.. unfortunately I'm not able to beam myself from one place to another, so I chose to go to a party called "screeners" where filmmakers could submit their shorts and showcase their work!

After another day, full of huuuge amounts of impressions, thoughts, ideas, etc...:
Good night everyone! I'm definitely looking forward to Day 5 @ Berlinale 2013!

Berlinale - take 3

I've had another wonderful day at the Berlinale 2013.
My Saturday started with an interesting panel discussion regarding "TV Drama Series - The New Art House?", hosted by WIFT Germany in collaboration with WIFT Sweden and FC Gloria!
Followed by a meeting of "Strasbergians" (German/Austrian/Swiss students of the Strasberg Institute Los Angeles), which was absolutely lovely and inspiring, 'cause each and everyone of them are full of passion and have such an unique spirit!
And, last but not least, I attended the award ceremony of "Hoffnungsschimmer" (to honor fair conditions of tv/movie production/employment), followed by a reception of the union of film technicians!
