Description

Project aim is audiovisual education and young audience development. To attract and involve children and youth, it is important to work closely with the adults (parents, teachers) who suggest or bring the young spectators to the cinema therefore we have to contribute to the audiovisual education of teachers and adults that would allow to improve their understanding of the everpresent importance of films, videos, clips not only in their everyday life but also in the development and personal growth of the young audiences.To continue the ongoing work with the young audiences during last couple of years and achieve these goals, as part of the project “Youth film masterclasses and teachers'' education” Kino Bize will implement educational course for teachers during which we will collectively design Kino Bize Home Cinema new platform for school screenings with additional film educational materials in order for teachers to be able to enrich film screenings with educational texts, videos and activities; as well as in cooperation with Apagon AS from Bergen, Norway we will implement youth filmmaking masterclasses (from 11 to 16 years of age) in Riga and regions of Latvia. The cinema lectures for teachers and youth masterclasses will be available onsite and online to be able to easily adapt to governmental health restrictions and to reach the interested teachers and youngsters regardless of their place of residence or access.
