Due to numerous requests, we have expanded our range of courses.
In 1.5-hour discussion rounds on 3 consecutive days, festival director, author and director Tom Bohn and actress and coach Beate Maes will talk to the filmmakers about the following topics:
Lead In Snowdance – Open discussion round for filmmakers
Thursday, 30.01.2025
There will be an opportunity to get to know each other, to talk about completed or planned projects and to share experiences. The open discussion with festival director Tom Bohn and the participants themselves will generate inspiration and ideas to make the best possible use of the time at the festival and the resulting opportunities.
Guided acting tour for directors directors – Communication on set
Friday, 31.01.2025
Beate Maes gives an insight into her work, which offers the director opportunities for successful communication and collaboration with the actors at eye level. Techniques and approaches are presented that reliably support actors and actresses in maximizing their potential and talent in front of the camera.
Independent Film – Brainstorming and Networking
Saturday, 01.02.2025
At the end of the festival, this discussion round offers time and space for summaries, networking and an outlook on the next plans for the Snowdance Festival. What was good, what can be improved? How can we reach more sponsors – also for film projects? What can Snowdance do to further strengthen the indie scene?
