Get Your Own Picture
Start date: Aug 3, 2015, End date: Jan 2, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

“Get Your Own Picture” is a youth exchange in which 32 young people from Turkey and 32 young people from Germany meet and recording their own audiovisuals together for 14 days. After learning something about the theories of making audiovisuals they will be supported in transforming their ideas into practise and make an own audiosvisuals about “being European”. The main aim is to give them an understanding of new media as a medium for expression of opinion and participation. They will deal with the question of differences and similarities between the cultures and will go into detail with the youth’s interests. The young people will become aware of their shared historical roots and can experience interculturalism. It is not a secret that youngsters have a specific interest for audiovisual medias such as photography, music and films in these days.The common passion for the topic “Image & Sound” will be very helpful here. The participants will experience that they have many similarities in spite of different cultural contexts and different religious opinions. In addition to the audiovisuals, the intercultural meeting is very important. Therefor we will offer for example the possibility to visit some regional places of interest or special theme nights, where the participants can present their countries and what is typical for them. All participants will live together. The finished end-products will be shown in Datca and Detmold and sent to other festivals all over the world. Afterwards they will be analysed together with reviewers.
