Creating and finnishing media products by using different new and innovative technologies in Europe
Start date: Sep 10, 2014, End date: May 31, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The 14 participants are students of a vocational school for photography and for book binding technique, as well as the vocational school for printing and media design in Munich, Germany ("Städtische Berufsschule für Fotografie und Buchbindetechnik", "Städtische Berufsschule für Druck und Mediengestaltung"). For most of the particants practical time abroad is not affordable, because the apprenticeship wages for photographers are often very low. Most of these participants wish to absolve an English Certificate Check. In 2014/15 the participants will take part in a two-week vocational course in partner schools in Finland, Spain and Hungary. Their intercultural and social abilities in Europe are strengthened during their time abroad. In the partner's network are also institutes from Estonia, Austria and Slovenia, which can be integrated if desired in the context of the open flow management. The participants are trained usually two weeks in the partner institutes in special techniques within the area of the new media, or in traditional photo-techniques, which are not teached in the sending institute. The participants use the local course system. Concrete learning contents of the lectures are HDR, portrait- and jewelery photography in Hungary. Particularly in Finland the learning contents are 2D-animation with Toon Boom Studio Animation and 3D Studio Max, as well as video cut with Adobe After Effects and Adobe Premiere, probably too at our new partner institute in Spain. Additionally the participants complete one-week practical courses in and for companies, federations and public institutions. The participants receive certificates and EuroPasses with usually 3 ECVET /ECTS points for a later study. In the annual final ceremony in the aula of sending institute the euro passes are presented. The participants receive besides appropriate entries in the intermediate and in the school-leaving certificate. Several documentations were created and can been seen online (http://issuu.com/dirkhund/docs/media_professionals_2013print) or in printed brochures. This shows the experience that this project under certificate encourages former users and improve their mobility, resulting in winning excellent awards (i.e. Kodak Silver Award), founding photo studios, or starting studies in CGI (computer generated imaging) at an university. The sending institution executes successfully the LdV mobility projects since 2006, since 2011 with the LdV mobility certificate, at least the sending institute's projects has been awarded as "good practice projects" for two times successively.
