La plateforme réunit des chercheurs de 18 sociétés spécialisées suisses en biologie et échange avec les unions internationales. Elle s'engage pour la mise en réseau entre les différentes disciplines et pour la relève scientifique. Elle encourage le dialogue avec la société et la politique et transmet des connaissances spécialisées indépendantes.en plus

Filmmaking Marathon for Scientists & Artists

Lieu de l'événement

ETH Zürich

A major challenge for us, scientists, is to communicate complex concepts and detailed content in ways that are appropriate for the wide audience. Films are a powerful tool for scientific communication, but the technical skills for filming and editing, as well as developing a strong narrative, lie outside our training as academic scientists.

Filmmaking Marathon for Scientists & Artists

This Filmmaking Marathon includes:
I. 2-day Workshop (only for scientists): you will learn about camera, audio, lighting equipment, and how to use film editing software, together with how to write, design and carry out the basics of making a documentary that is attractive for a broad audience.
II. 2-day Filmmaking Marathon: filmmakers and artists will join us and we will work together to prepare short films. The resulting films will be screened at the Global Eco Film Festival

www.globalecofilmfestival.com

The number of places is limited to 45 scientists (practical exercises will be in small groups) and 10 filmmakers and artists. The filmmaking marathon will be held in English.

WHERE
University and ETH Zurich. Practical films will be shot in Zurich University, ETH-Zurich, EAWAG, WSL and Zoo Zurich.

APPLICANTS
Scientists, Postdocs and PhD students enrolled at a Swiss higher education institution
