experts from ve continents and nearly 2,000 Talents
from more than 100 countries have taken part in this
international arena of dialogue, co-operation and
exchange. Furthermore, it seems fair to conclude that
the opening of Talent Campuses in Cape Town, New
Delhi, Buenos Aires and Kiev testies to the progressive
environment that is created both by and for the young
lmmakers that attend the event each year.
We are happy to announce that in 2006 Euromed, the
Euro-Mediterranean Partnership Programme, has
joined our group of long-time partners and established
sponsors such as MEDIA, Medienboard Berlin-Branden-
burg, Skillset and the UK Film Council, and Volkswagen.
The co-operation and willingness of these sponsors to
endorse and support young lmmakers around the
world has turned the Berlinale Talent Campus from an
idea into a reality.
Come be inspired by the unique and creative spirit of
the Campus. Be part of the excitement and enjoy the
week.
Dieter Kosslick
Director Berlin International Film Festival
Join in as 520 of the worlds most eager young lmmakers
work together, get in touch with each other, and learn
from experienced international professionals at the fourth
edition of the Berlinale Talent Campus. The Campus ena-
bles the lm industrys most creative young Talents from
around the globe to assemble and work together for one
week in Berlin. It is the collaboration of these unique and
fresh international lmmakers that places the Berlinale
Talent Campus at cutting edge of the lm industry.
The Berlinale Talent Campus 2006 has selected editing as
its focal point and looks forward to showcasing editing as
one of lms most fundamental and fascinating features.
The art of editing encompasses far more than putting
together a story shot by shot, or rescuing a director when
a lms continuity is nowhere to be found. Editing not
only establishes a lms rhythm, it is the heart beat of nar-
ration, the spirit between the shots, and the conductor of
the audiences emotional journey. Any lm can provide
an audience with a cli while only a well edited lm can
grant an audience the pleasure of a cli-hanger. This year,
we are very fortunate to have some of the industrys most
esteemed editors joining the Berlinale Talent Campus.
These editors include Angie Lam, Sabine Krayenbhl, Jim
Clark and Dirk Grau, each of whom will share their experi-
ence and insight regarding this exciting element of lm.
In building the programme for the Berlinale Talent Cam-
pus 2006 it became apparent that the question of exclu-
sion vs. omission is not only important for editors. This
very inquiry is equally applicable to the many decisions a
cook has to make while preparing a dish. The connections
between lmmaking and cooking are manifold and give us
a lot of food for thought in the special programme Films
on Hunger, Food and Taste. Thanks to the support of peo-
ple like Vandana Shiva, Alice Waters, Tom Luddy and Carlo
Petrini, the Berlinale Talent Campus will oer entertaining,
critical and widely opened discussions on the theme of
Hunger, Food and Taste.
Be it culinary or editorial, the hallmark of the Berlinale
Talent Campus lies within the wonderful cross-section of
opinions, thoughts, and views that its constantly increas-
ing global network of Campus alumni, friends and col-
laborators share with its students. Over the last three years
BE A PART OF IT!

The strength and success of the UK lm industry hinges
on the skills, talent and ideas of the people working in
it. Film is a global marketplace with a global audience.
To continue to cater for and appeal to that audience we
must remain fresh and exciting. Skillset is committed
to encouraging and nurturing the next generation of
bright new lmmakers to do just that.
For the second year in a row Skillset, Sector Skills Coun-
cil for the Audio Visual Industries, is supporting the
Berlinale Talent Campus.
Last years highly successful speed-matching sessions
will take place again every day at lunch time start-
ing on Orientation Day, when all 520 Talents will have
the chance to meet each other informally and start
networking. It is an invaluable way for Talents from
around the globe to discover potential co-production
partners. We will also be giving Talents the opportunity
to Meet the experts, staging intimate group sessions
with leading industry gures to discuss topical issues
in lmmaking. The Campus is an amazing opportunity
for lmmakers and we are delighted to be working with
the Berlinale again in 2006.
To sign up for speed-matching or a meet the experts
session please visit the Skillset stand in the Campus
Lounge. For more information on how Skillset can help
lmmakers please visit our website at www.skillset.

A WELCOME FROM OUR PARTNERS
PARTNERS
As an o cial partner of the 56th Berlin International
Film Festival, Volkswagens support for the Berlinale
Talent Campus has now entered its third year, and
we are again focusing on encouraging young tal-
ent. Our work with promising talent, which began
in 1997, when the Volkswagen Sound Foundation
was established to support young musicians, has
been extended to the lm industry and is growing
steadily stronger. Over the coming days, 520 talents
from 101 nations will come to the House of World
Cultures. These young lmmakers will exchange
past experiences, create new trends and put team-
work to the test. Representatives from our Career
Development Department will lend their support
during the workshop entitled Potluck Recipes for
Inspired Teamwork. The Volkswagen Score Compe-
tition, where young composers and musicians from
the Babelsberg Film Orchestra set a Volkswagen clip
to music, will again take place in 2006.
We look forward to our partnership at this years
event and wish all participants an exciting and
stimulating time in Berlin.

Great ideas are at the root of all great lms. And where can a new
generation of lmmakers go to brainstorm about great ideas? To the
Talent Campus of the Berlin International Film Festival, of course!
The Talent Campus is a ve-day creative get-together attended by
hundreds of young industry players from over 100 countries.
Berlin German capital and creative metropolis - has always held
a special attraction for the international lm industry. The entire
Berlin-Brandenburg region oers all the essential ingredients for
lm production and much more. Hardly any other location in Europe
features such a variety of cultural and creative currents. Berlin has
also long been famous for its avant-garde atmosphere, its cutting
edge combination of history and myth, its independent scene and
its pioneering club culture. This inimitable atmosphere acts like a
magnet for young and creative people from all over the world. The
Berlinale continues to be one of the most important lm festivals on
the planet, bringing the industrys leading lmmakers to the German
metropolis each year.
The Medienboard helped to initiate the Berlinale Talent Campus and
has provided comprehensive support for the meeting from the very
beginning. We are especially looking forward to congratulating this
years winner of the Medienboards Berlin Today Award for young
talent on February 11th at the opening of the Campus. Incidentally,
each and every participant at the Talent Campus is once again invited
to apply for the award. The top three nalists are then asked to make
a 20 minute lm about contemporary Berlin.
Welcome to Berlin-Brandenburg!

The Berlinale Talent Campus brings young talents
from all over the World to Berlin for one week, where
they get to know each other, share their experience
and meet exceptional international lmmakers. This
not only builds the foundations for future closer
international co-operation and business relations
but also contributes to stimulating the exchange
of ideas and views and hence a better understand-
ing between peoples and cultures. The objective of
the MEDIA Programme of the European Union is to
encourage and support the circulation and diver-
sity of European works and professionals in Europe
and in the world. The MEDIA programme devotes
a signicant share of its budget to support dozens
of training initiatives in Europe. The MEDIA pro-
gramme has been happy to support the Berlinale
Talent Campus as a major partner since its creation
in 2002. We would like to whish every success and
lots of encounters to the 520 Talents
gathered by the Berlinale Talent Campus in the
appropriately named House of World Cultures.

Legend has it that Zhang Yimou donated blood to raise
money for his rst camera an action which in spirit
is not far removed from the Hunger, Food and Taste
at the focus of this years Berlinale Talent Campus. The
anecdote captures the passion of a director, whose
work the House of World Cultures will feature as part
of the Spring 2006 programme China Between Past
and Future. This form of hunger is of course familiar to
all the Talents it is the same passion that transforms
the House of World Cultures into the Campus every
February, the same passion driving our co-operation
with the Berlinale and our long-standing commitment
to providing Berlin audiences with programming fea-
turing cinematic highlights from around the world.

Im far more interested in the well-made lm than I am in the razzle-daz-
zle of CGI, says Jim Clark in Vincent LoBrutto's portrait for the ACE Tribute
Book. Because these days you can do anything provided you have enough
money but it doesnt necessarily make the goods any better.
Making the goods any better that was Jim Clark's challenge as editor of up
to fty productions till this day. Born 1931 in Boston, Lincolnshire, England,
he was attracted at a young age by moving pictures, and started out his
editing career at the le gendary London-based Ealing Studios. As an assist-
ant editor there he learned the editor's crafts, as well as montage tricks and
strategies on lms like Alexander Mackendrick's famous THE LADYKILLERS,
or THE TITFIELD THUNDERBOLT directed by Charles Crichton. In the early
1960's Jim Clark established himself in England and in the USA as a freelance
editor by working with directors like Stanley Donen on successful lms such
as THE GRASS IS GREENER and CHARADE.
In the late 1960's, the New Hollywood began to emerge and also in Europe
alternative lmic forms enriched the contemporary cinema. A younger
generation of directors came to the fore, including John Schlesinger, with
whom Jim Clark edited a couple of thrillingly structured lms, like DARLING
and then MARATHON MANN. Michael Apted (AGATHA) and Roland Jo also
the editing of some of their lms to Jim Clark. The collaboration with Roland
Jo yielded honorary fruit when Jim Clark won an Oscar for best editing for
THE KILLING FIELDS in 1985 and a nomination for THE MISSION in 1987.
For the last ve decades the English editor Jim Clark has improved internationally acclaimed lm
productions with his ne grasp of rhythm and dramaturgy. Honoured with an Oscar for his editing
of Roland Joff's THE KILLING FIELDS, Jim Clark graces the Campus by sharing his experiences.

EDITING
Edited by Jim Clark: Mike Leigh's VERA DRAKE
Jim Clark
Bruce Beresford (A GOOD MAN IN AFRICA),
Michael Caton-Jones (THE JACKAL), Richard
Loncraine (THE GATHERING STORM) and most
recently Mike Leigh (VERA DRAKE), to name just
a few, are some of the directors he has worked
with during the past decade.
All the lmmakers Jim Clark prefers to collabo-
rate with possess a unique cinematic signature,
and above all a distinctive passion for the craft
of the lm medium. It's the strict technical prin-
ciples with attention the story and content, as
Vincent LoBrutto wrote, that characterises the
highly acclaimed editing of Jim Clark. One of
his latest works is Peter Cattaneo's OPAL DREAM,
which opens this year's Berlinale Kinderlm-
fest. This year's Campus Talents will be oered
a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: watching Jim
Clark edit his new project DECAMERON: ANGELS
AND VIRGINS, directed by David Leland, live on

Considered by many one of the worlds top
lm editors, Angie Lams passion for her work
borders on the poetic. Based in Hong Kong,
she has dozens of lms to her credit, having
worked as both an editor and a post-pro-
duction supervisor. She is known for having
edited lms such as HERO, HOUSE OF THE
FLYING DAGGERS and IRON MONKEY, and
her reputation as an editor for martial arts
lms is unparalleled.
Lams editing philosophy ensures her active
participation in the editing process, because
in her words, the editor is not a bystander
Making it simple, I am the ultimate ghter
when I am cutting on an action lm... And I
know where to cry when I am cutting a mel-
odrama. Getting into the lm as an editor
takes away the prominence of the technical
elements of editing, and gives a truly human
feel to the lm. The human element is not
limited only to an editing style: according
to Lam, real human contact is still the most
important kind of contact.
She sees her expertise as a martial arts editor
fully transferable to other genres, the key
being in the rhythm and impulse of the edit-
ing. She explains if you are cutting with the
wrong rhythm, its like singing a song in the
wrong tune. Lams straightforward approach
to nding the heartbeat of narration is a val-
uable tool for all aspiring editors.
No stranger to the food and lm theme, Lam
said that when she was learning to edit, her
mentor inuenced her with a wide variety
of ideas. She told the Berlinale Talent Cam-
pus that her mentor explained to her that
to make a cut is to complete a dish from a
designated recipe. If the script is the recipe,
Angie Lam is known the world over for her editing on martial arts lms. This year,
she shares with the Campus her editing strategies in an intensive seminar, and below,
she gives the Campus Magazine some insight into her editing philosophy.

then the process of cooking is the job of
editing. You cannot at this point choose to
make a dierent dish, since the director has
already selected all his ideal ingredients.
Obviously these were wise words, as they
have led Angie Lam to great success in the
editing world.
The connections between food and lm dont
end there for Lam She also told the Cam-
pus that she had initially planned to name
her editing suite The Cutting Kitchen. The
2006 Berlinale Talent Campus is very excited
that Angie Lam will be joining us for several
sessions.

It may seem that nobody cares about the techni-
cal aspects of post production in the rst place.
But somewhere down the line, when you are
sitting between hours of footage, every scene
an essential fragment of your story, the nal cut
can separate a nice try from a masterpiece. At
this point you are sitting at the cutting edge of
making movies.

you the exibility to work with every format,
from lm to DV and native HDV to fully uncom-
pressed HD just in case. Tools you can use
down the road, with your PowerBook or your
new MacBook Pro. Tools that are aordable, so

HUNGER, FOOD & TASTE
The Five Ps
Preparing delicious meals like high concept lmmak-
ing makes the highest demands on quality, team
members, logistics, taste and composition. Alice Waters,
chef, gardener, writer and special guest at the Campus,
built up her career on these standards. Her restaurant
Chez Panisse in Berkeley, California opened in 1971,
serving a single xed-price menu that changed daily.
The set menu format remains at the heart of her phi-
losophy of serving the most delicious organic products,
but only when they are in season. Over the course of
three de cades, Chez Panisse has developed a network
of local farmers whose dedication to sustainable agri-
culture assures Chez Panisse a steady supply of pure
and fresh ingredients.
The ve Ps of lmmaking (philosophy, pre-production,
production, post-production, promotion) that struc-
ture not only the course of lm production but also
the Campus programme are also basic elements in the
cooking process of chefs like Alice Waters.
Step One: Recipes / Philosophy
Filmmaking, like every creative act, begins with a phi-
losophy, with thoughts leading to an idea. An idea will
guide the lmmaker from the very beginning to the
very end of the production. A cook may make up his
or her mind by reading recipes or inspecting raw mate-
rials at the market. Wherever the inspiration comes
from, the maker needs a concept to start cooking or
lming.
Step Two: Ingredients / Pre-Production
The second phase in lmmaking is pre-production,
which in some cases can last years. Several drafts of
a script grow out of the original idea. A core team is
formed, and theres work to be done on nancing and
casting until everything is ready for shooting. What
about the cook? In the pre-production phase she or
he is assembling the ingredients: some may come a
long way by cargo, others might have taken a whole
season to grow. The components of the meal must be
cleaned, chopped, mixed and prepared. The ingredi-
ents and the tools must already be in place to make
the timing possible.
Step Three: Cooking / Production
Be it in the kitchen or on the lm set, in the hot phase
of production, smooth interaction of the crew is vital.
The actors transform the screenplay into a three-dimen-
sional reality which is recorded by the camera.
The camera is the equivalent of the oven. The word
focus comes from Latin and means hearth. The appli-
cation of heat transforms raw material into a tasty sub-
stance. This process can also be compared with transla-
tion. In many cases the body doesnt understand the
composition of the raw material and refuses to take it
in. However, when it is translated into another form,
the body understands and absorbs it. A lm director
should know how the chemistry of the camera and
the language of lm transform the reality before his
or her eyes.
Step Four: Arranging / Post-Production
In the post-production phase, lm takes its nal form.
Discontinuity is transformed into a continuous chain of
events. Scenes might be digitally reworked. Sound and
picture are blended together until the day of the nal
cut. Thus many elements together became a whole.
But, the picture is still not ready for release.
Cutting back to the kitchen: The chef and the crew
are busy arranging the courses of the meal such as
soup, entres or dessert, preparing the side-dishes,
and reducing the sauce. The sommelier takes care of
the wine. The feast can almost start.
This year's special at the Berlinale Talent Campus is dedicated to the relationship
between food and lm. A wide range of parallels will be uncovered during several
Campus events, with help from chef Alice Waters and other special guests, and what
seems to be a special idea at rst sight, may suddenly work on many levels.

Step Five: Serving / Promotion
Promotion is the nal stage of lm production. A concept is needed to present
and sell the lm. The producers will reformulate the original idea of the lm,
which might have changed along the way. Agents and distributors start mar-
keting in the hope of having a hot selling point. The critics are the rst ones
to judge whether the fresh release suits their taste.
In the kitchen, it is the turn of the waiters to serve the meal. Service is an
important element in achieving your primary goals. Even if you just cooked
pasta for yourself, it is the way you serve yourself that will bring you satisfac-
tion. Charlie Chaplin couldnt digest the shoe laces in THE GOLD RUSH but he
kept his dignity which ultimately saved him.
At Chez Panisse
Serving succulent dishes implies a large amount of responsibility towards
consumer as well as the environment. Alice Waters, Vice President of Slow Food
International, and her natural food concept do exactly this. Her Chez Panisse
Foundation, for example, committed in 1996 to transforming public education,
and continues to support projects that integrate gardening, cooking, and the
sharing of a daily school lunch into the core academic curriculum. The Edible
Schoolyard at Berkeleys Martin Luther King Jr. Middle School is the Founda-
tions primary beneciary. This hands-on programme involves children directly
in growing, and cooking, their own food.
In 2003, Alice Waters helped conceive The Yale Sustainable Food Project, with
the goal of making food an integral part of the academic experience at the
university level. By supporting small-scale, organic farmers in the Northeast
who care for the land, Yale hopes to set an example of responsible eating for
institutions around the country.
At the Campus Table
The Berlinale Talent Campus will be a place
to watch, eat, and explore the relationship
between lm and food. Talks on Hunger,
Food and Taste, hosted by Tom Luddy, will
take place at the Campus with a solid back-
ground. As Bertolt Brecht said: Erst kommt
das Fressen und dann die Moral (Chow rst,
then moralise).
Alice Waters will enrich the Campus pro-
gramme in three events by arguing for two
substantial passions: quality food and qual-
ity lms.

HUNGER, FOOD & TASTE
In a world of fast food, slow food is occupying a healthy
counter position to mass consumption. Will the lm
industry also nd a counter balance favouring small
independent productions as opposed to industrial
mass production? The simple pleasure of making time
to break bread with friends and family, the healthy
goodness of locally grown produce and the impor-
tance of maintaining a connection to the land through
what we eat are at the heart of the Slow Food philo-
sophy.
Petrini is the face behind Slow Food, and in his daily
work he places gastronomy out in front as a creative,
educational, diplomatic and cultural tool that is not
only aimed at individuals, but that can also be used to
breathe fresh life into ecological movements across the
globe. The 2006 Berlinale Talent Campus is not the rst
time that Petrini has stood at the intersection between
food and lm, because while the philosophy of Slow
Food is simple, the projects that have emerged from
the movement are diverse, and include a biannual Slow
Food on Film Festival. Every two years, the Golden Snail
is awarded to the team that produces a documentary
that best captures the essence of a food that is dying
out or a cooking tradition that is being forgotten. Film
is here combined with food in a way that makes it a
sort of memory, a record of past traditions that can be
stored for future generations.
The connections between food and lm certainly
dont stop there. Petrinis approach to the realities of
unsustainable mass production, ecological destruc-
tion, unhealthy fast food, and the loss of traditional
knowledge is valuable to lmmakers because it is prag-
matic, and not just philosophical. A lmmaker might
have similar worries: the hyper-proliferation of digital
technology, the amount of waste generated and the
excessive resources used during shooting, the produc-
Already a household name to natural food buffs, Carlo Petrini is the founder of Slow Food,
a movement that is quietly changing the way that people eat and think about food. He joins this
years Campus as a special guest, examining the points of contact between food and lm.
I EAT, THEREFORE I AM
Founder of Slow Food: Carlo Petrini
tion of cinema only to satisfy a commercial appetite,
and the loss of knowledge with regards to cinematic
customs now deemed out of date.
Instead of complaining about the sorry state of aairs,
Petrini advocates the relevance of a new way forward,
rooted in rural knowledge and cultivation traditions.
He encourages people create local demand for local
products, to take the time to eat together, and to get to
know their local gastronomic traditions. Through these
simple measures, real change and education happens.
Filmmakers have a lot to learn from this philosophy,
and Talents and guests will have a chance to hear Carlo
Petrini speak twice during the Campus.

BERLINALE TALENT CAMPUS #4 PAGE 17
HUNGER, FOOD & TASTE
Vandana Shiva is one of the worlds most recognizable physicists,
known for her strong stances in favor of local control over land,
water, agriculture and seeds against the patenting of life, and for
her strong support of ecological feminism. She has been and
continues to be on the front lines of the so-called anti-globali-
sation movements that are today changing the worlds political
landscape, one demonstration at a time.
Based in New Delhi, Vandana Shiva is a dedicated writer, com-
menting at least weekly on various websites and magazines on
topics ranging from the miniscule (a particular local seed) to
the massive (anti-WTO protests from Seattle to Cancun to Hong
Kong). She is an authority on Indian politics, and an important
gure in third-wave feminism, but when it comes to food and
activism, Dr. Shivas central axis rests on diversity: biodiversity
and diverse people.
Shiva founded the Research Foundation for Science Technology
and Natural Resource Policy in 1984, the same year that the Bho-
pal disaster rocked India and showed the world the ugliest face
of careless development. Today, in addition to research facilities,
the foundation features a school, an organic garden and a Slow
Food caf.
Whether helping to create markets for local farmers, advocating
for the right to sovereignty over seeds through lawsuits, brin-
ging a Third World perspective to a discussion or making space
for womens voices in the environmental movement, Dr. Shiva is
eminently holistic in her approach. The Guardian newspaper has
called her one of the worlds most prominent radical scientists.
A respected writer and speaker, with hundreds of articles and
many books to her credit, she has also contributed to a number
of documentaries, including LIFE RUNNING OUT OF CONTROL
(directed by Bertram Verhaag and Gabriele Krber). Her multifa-
ceted approach to activism can serve as a model and inspiration
to creative people, breaking with the consumerist mold to create
new meanings and to savor forgotten recipes.
A prominent scientist and activist, Vandana Shiva, winner of the Right Livelihood
Award, will be attending this years Campus. Her voice will add an essential scientic
and political aspect to the Campus theme of Hunger Food and Taste.

Filmmakers young and old will most denitely

mental and feminist awareness not only in their
creations, but also in their lmic practices.

HUNGER, FOOD & TASTE
The idea of combining the themes of food and lms has matured
from a rough sketch to a multifaceted and challenging element
of the 2006 Berlinale Talent Campus. The creative vision is best
summed up in the poetic words of Campus Talent Manager Tho-
mas Struck, Your body is a Cinema. Films are food for your soul.
Cinemas are restaurants for feelings. It is with this sense of open-
ness and creativity that food and lm metaphors have begun to
overlap, and the lm and food idea has crystallized.
Producer of nine lms and consultant to many more, Tom Luddy
is also the former programme director of the Pacic Film Archives
in Berkely, California, and currently sits on the advisory board for
ALL-STORY, a short ction magazine published by Francis Ford
Coppola.
The intersections of lm with hunger, food and taste have become a special
programme for the 2006 Berlinale Talent Campus. This has been developed with the
creative support of Tom Luddy, co-director of the Telluride Film Festival, Colorado.
APPETITE FOR CREATIVITY
Cuisines et Cinma places to be for Tom Luddy
Luddy brings to the Campus great know-
ledge and skill as a programming director,
as he is well known for making the Tellu-
ride Film Festivals line-up one of the most
interesting and exclusive in the world. He
chose the lms that will be shown in the
Cuisines et Cinma section of the Campus
that is made possible in partnership with
the French Embassy in Berlin and was on the
jury of the Campus short lm competition
on hunger, food and taste.
In addition to Luddys Cuisines et Cinma
programme, the Campus has invited very
special guests Vandana Shiva, Alice Waters
and Carlo Petrini to help us make new lin-
kages between social responsibility, hunger,
food and taste, and lmmaking.
The Campus team is also very excited about
the 350 lm samples about hunger, food and
taste that were sent as applications to the
Campus. The best of these short lms will
be shown at the Campus Exhibition Hall as
well as in the Food for Thought program-
mes. They are also invited to compete for
the Golden Snail at the Slow Food on Film
Festival, an initiative of Petrini that will take
place this April in Bra, Italy.
Talents can catch Tom Luddy as he mode-
rates a variety of seminars and discussions
during the course of the Campus.

PORTRAIT
This dynamic South Korean director is the face of
new Korean cinema most familiar to the West, grac-
ing the big screen with his own cinematic style ever
since the release of his rst full-length lm in 1992. He
has enjoyed great mainstream success in Korea, with
lms like JOINT SECURITY AREA, and won much critical
acclaim for others, like SYMPATHY FOR MR. VENGE-
ANCE, a phenomenon he attributes simply to the fact
that people have diering tastes.
Park Chan-wook grew up in Seoul, South Korea, where
he later studied philosophy, with the aim of becoming
an art critic. An avid cinemagoer, he was inspired by
Hitchcocks VERTIGO to become a director in his own
right, and to this day remains focused on the aesthetic
aspects of his work.
Twelve years after the making of his rst feature lm,
Park Chan-wook was awarded the Grand Prix at the
57th Cannes festival for his lm OLDBOY. He is quoted
after his acceptance speech at Cannes as having told
a journalist that he made the lm in the spirit that
spectators could watch OLDBOY many times, and dis-
cover new elements each time. His attention to detail
and the richness of his work come through in the fact
that it is only through multiple screenings that one can
truly appreciate his craft.
Park Chan-wook is at the forefront of a new generation of Asian directors, turning
out lms that provoke the audience and please the eye. He joins the Campus this
year to lend a skilled and steady hand to the Talent Movie of the Week teams.

Park Chan-wook on set
OLDBOY was the second lm in a loose trilogy on venge-
ance, the last being SYMPATHY FOR LADY VENGEANCE
(in competition in the 2005 Venice lm Festival), which
explores themes of revenge and violence. His scenes
are often fraught with disturbing, excruciating violence,
while at the same time stylish and controversial, all the
while visually overwhelming. He is sometimes com-
pared to Quentin Tarantino and David Fincher. Parks
future plans include crafting lms in varied genres,
with a romantic comedy of sorts planned for 2006, to
be followed by EVIL LIVE, a vampire movie.
Park Chan-wook described his movie making formula-
tion to the Hollywood Reporter as follows I plan out
the outline with the speed of a jet, write out the draft
with the speed of a sports car, and retouch the script
like an afternoon walk. These attributes will make Park
an invaluable mentor for the three teams selected for
the Talent Movie of the Week, as he guides each team
through the ne points of lmmaking.

PORTRAIT
Stephen Warbeck started out as a composer in 1977, and from his
humble beginning as a young man making music, he has followed
his passion, leading him to where he is today: an established com-
poser with many musical projects on the go. He has scored music for
dozens of lms, including BILLY ELLIOT, CAPTAIN CORELLIS MANDO-
LIN, and SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE, for which he won an Oscar. His work
for theater is just as broad, having written an abundance of scores
for plays, as well as for touring plays, such as THE INSPECTOR CALLS.
Most recently, he completed his rst score for a ballet, expanding
again his frontiers as a composer.
What makes Warbeck unique in the music world is the scope of his
interaction with other creative people in his daily work. In an inter-
view with the BBC, he described his job as wonderful, because it
gives me the opportunity to work with a huge number of dierent
people dierent musicians, lm directors, theatre directors on a
very wide range of dierent projects so I am constantly stimulated
by dierent things outside this room where I work. This constant
interchange of ideas and projects can only kindle the creative spirit,
and in Warbecks case it has certainly been a successful formula for
producing innovative, top quality scores.
The hKippers, a band for which Warbeck composes as well as sing-
ing and playing the accordion, mandolin, and piano allow him yet
another creative outlet for his music. In an interview with amazon.
co.uk, he described playing in a band as being like a safety valve. In
my work Im writing for lm and theatre and you have to keep your
silliness slightly under control or things go horribly wrong. But with
the hKippers, we dont have to.
Warbeck has also participated in a BBC programme called Challenge
Cantata, where he was given a week to compose, write, arrange,
rehearse and perform a cantata for an orchestra and choir. This long
list of credentials make him the ideal mentor for the Volkswagen
Score Competition at this years Campus. As the three Score Com-
petition Talents work through a similar process during the Campus,
theyll most denitely be glad to have the support and guidance of
Stephen Warbeck.

The rst oshoot of the Campus took place 2003 in
Ukraine, during the Molodist Kiev International Film
Festival. The rst Molodist Campus (molodist means
youth in Ukrainian) saw young Ukrainian lmmakers
get together for master classes, and gave three young
directors the chance to realise their lms and present
them at the 2004 Berlinale Talent Campus in Berlin.
Since 2003, two more successful Campus Abroad Initia-
tives have taken place in Kiev.
This back and forth ow of lmic knowledge and expe-
rience typies the goals of the Talent Campuses abroad.
2004 saw the beginning of two more Campuses abroad,
extending the Campus to the Southern tip of Africa,
and to India, where the rst Campus was held in New
Delhi.
The South African Campus, known as the Sithengi
Campus, takes place in November, during the Cape
Town World Cinema Festival, in conjunction with the
Sithengi Film and Television Market. It was held with
great success in 2004 and again last year, in 2005, when
46 Talents had the chance to participate in workshops
focused on various aspects of lmmaking.
The roots of the Talent Campus are rmly planted
in Berlin, but since 2003, new shoots of the Campus
initiative have been sprouting internationally.
CAMPUS, CAMPUS, EVERYWHERE!
From Berlin to Cape Town: Christine Trstrum surrounded by Talents
The success of the Sithengi Campus is bound to grow,
as the Goethe Institute announced at the last campus
that they would provide a grant of 15,000 towards
travel costs of Talents from Sub-Saharan African coun-
tries for the 2006 Sithengi Campus. This exciting infu-
sion will ensure that more budding lmmakers from
countries like Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Angola
and Malawi to name a few are able to attend the
next Sithengi Talent Campus.
The New Delhi Campus, now two years old, is held in
conjunction and partnership with the Osians Cinefan
Festival of Asian Cinema yearly in July. In each 2004 and
2005, 50 young lmmakers from India and Sri Lanka
attended the Campus, including Sainath Choudhury,
the winner of the Talent Movie of the Week Competi-
tion at the 2005 Berlinale Talent Campus. Experts at the
New Delhi Campus in 2005 included Christopher Doyle
and Andres Veiel, as well as reputed Indian lmmakers
Apama Sen and Adoor Gopalakrishnan.
The newest incarnation of the Talent Campus took
place in Buenos Aires, in partnership with Universidad
del Cine and in the context of the Buenos Aires Inde-
pendent International Film Festival, in April of 2005.
65 Talents from the entire continent were invited to
Buenos Aires to participate in four jam-packed days of
lectures, workshops and presentations. The overarch-
ing theme of the Buenos Aires Talent Campus was the
relation between cinema and the city, featuring experts
including Chantal Akerman and Agns Godard.
With all these Campuses and more potential cam-
puses in store the diusion of the energy and extraor-
dinary possibilities of the Talent Campus is exponen-
tially amplied. It is with great excitement that we look
forward to a long and continuing tradition of Talent
Campuses worldwide!

I consider this experience to be very special, says direc-
tor Harrie Verbeek, whose digital short lm project was
realised during 2005. 182 proposals were submitted by
last years participants of the Berlinale Talent Campus, and
Verbeeks project UNDER THESE WINGS was among the
three nominees for the Berlin Today Award. Nomination
means receiving a grant worth 50,000 Euro from the Medi-
enboard Berlin-Brandenburg and an additional 20,000

ALUMNI SUCCESS STORIES
At the last three Campuses, many Talents have gotten to know each
other, and started working on common projects.
German cinematographer Philipp Blaubach, alumnus from 2004, was
invited to shoot the feature FLESH AND BLOOD thanks to the Talent
Database, via which director Caradog James contacted him. London-
based Blaubach will also photograph US-alumnus Lance Hammers next
lm. Another international alumni-collaboration was established by
Spanish writer/director Diego Maximiliano Sabans and editor Cristian
Perenyi who together completed the documentary SEEDS. The very
successful short lm UNDRESSING MY MOTHER won the European Film
Award in 2005, and was produced and directed by two Irish lmmakers
who are both previous Talents, Andrew Freedman and Ken Wardrop.
Many, many international lm festivals have been conquered by Cam-
pus alumni lms over the last three years. Vimukthi Jayasundara from
Sri Lanka, for example, won the Camra dOr at Cannes in the section
Un certain regard for his documentary THE LAND OF SILENCE. In the
same section at Cannes, SANGRE, the rst feature by Mexican alumnus
Amat Escalante, won the FIPRESCI Prize. Malaysian alumnus James Lee
was also happy about winning the FIPRESCI Prize, which was awarded
to him at the Bangkok International Film Festival along with the award
for Best Asian lm for his debut THE BEAUTIFUL WASHING MACHINE.
Romanian actress Ana Ularu, Talent at the 2005 Campus was recently
chosen as Best Actress of the Year by the National Association of Film-
makers in Romania. In addition, US alumnus Dean Wareham scored

national Film Festival. In the 2006 Berlinale Pro-
gramme, there are 18 lms that were made with
major involvement of current or former Talents. As
a Talent in 2004, German director Marc Bauder had
presented a project at the Co-Production Market
which this year is included in the Panorama section:
the documentary LAST TO KNOW. A second result
of the Talent Project Market is the lm BIG RIVER. In
2004 Japanese Talent-director Atsushi Funahashi
pitched his project in Berlin to O ce Kitano, Take-
shi Kitanos production company. BIG RIVER, star-
ring former Talent and co-producer Mohammed
Naqvi from Pakistan, will run in the Forum. The lm
that will open this years Berlinale Kinderlmfest,
OPAL DREAMS by Peter Cattaneo, was co-written
by 2003 Campus alumnus Philip Traill. Singh Hard-
esh, a former Talent from Malaysia, has composed
the scores for two lms in this years Forum: THE
LAST COMMUNIST and MONDAY MORNING GLORY.
JACOUBIAN BUILDING (Panorama), the most suc-
cessful Egyptian lm ever, was directed by 2003
alumnus Marwan Hamed. And in the Perspektive
Deutsches Kino, three Talents, siblings Dietrich
and Anna Brggemann as well as Benjamin Hrbe,
directing, acting and sound designing alumni in
2003, will present NEUN SZENEN.
This list of Talent success stories is far from exhaus-
tive, and with a little luck and a lot of hard work, you
might eventually see your own name amongst the
Talent success stories.
BERLINALE TALENT CAMPUS #4 PAGE 25
First of all you will need to choose the section for which you
should apply. The O cial Programme is comprised of the fol-
lowing: Competition, Berlinale Special and Panorama, the
Kinderlmfest/14plus, the Perspektive Deutsches Kino, the Ret-
rospective and the International Forum of New Cinema which is
organized independently.
You may choose a section to which you wish to apply with your
lm. Be aware that there are distinct regulations covering partici-
pation in each section of the festival. In order to submit a lm to
the Berlinale you have to send the completed entry form to the
festival before the given deadline. After the submission selection
screenings are held at the Festival. For these screenings, lms
must be submitted in their original language. Films in German
and English may be submitted without subtitles, but lms in any
other language should either be subtitled or accompanied by
a complete dialogue-list in German or English. In exceptional
circumstances, work prints and double-headed prints may be
accepted.
Check all the regulations on the internet at www.berlinale.de.
There you will also nd the entry form and all of the information
you will need to apply. Films that have a former Talent as editor,
cinematographer, producer, director, production designer, sound
designer or lead actor are subject to a waiver of entry fees. Ulti-
mately, the most important factor will be the quality of your lm.
With a little good luck, we'll meet again in Berlin!
When the Berlinale Talent Campus is over, you know at least one thing for sure:
what it is like to walk the Red Carpet. And there is one chance to repeat it:
Go further, tell your stories and apply for the Berlin International Film Festival.
GOODBYE, CAMPUS. HELLO BERLINALE!

MANFRED DURNIOK PRODUKTION
The Berlin based lmmaker and producer Manfred Durniok, who
passed away three years ago, had a deep passion for South- Eastern
Asian culture. Manfred Durniok successfully produced Istvn Szab's
Oscar-awarded MEPHISTO and OBERST REDL, and was, in 1986, one
of the rst Europeans to originally shoot a lm in Beijing. EIN CHINESE
SUCHT EINEN MRDER, directed by Hans Borgelt, was a Chinese-
German co-production one of many lms that Durniok dedicated
to this beloved region.
A foundation is currently being esta blished to administer the estate
of Manfred Durniok. One of the aims of this foundation, soon to
be established by Ayano Teramoto, Manfred Durniok's 18-year-old
daughter, will be the promotion of South-Eastern Asian lm art and
the support of young creatives. This year, for the rst time, the travel
expenses of Talents from South Eastern Asia will be covered. Thirty
artists have learned the true promise of the Durniok-Ticket, and are
taking part in the Campus 2006 (further info at www.durniok.com).
FROM ASIA WITH LOVE
Thanks to the Durniok-Ticket 30 Talents from South-Eastern Asia
are given the opportunity to attend the Berlinale Talent Campus.

Eat and Shoot the Indie Way
Angie Lam, Vandana Shiva, Alice Waters,
Carlo Petrini, Jeremy Thomas,
moderated by Davia Nelson and Tom Luddy. Discussion.
Creating a product that covers the needs and the taste of
the masses is a fundamental goal of Western capitalism.
Having a product like this in distribution means large-scale
production and large-scale benet. In the food world as
well as in the lm world industrial production is part of
reality, leaving a bland aftertaste for many individuals.
But shooting and eating the independent way is more
than just satisfying the egos of a minority. It is crucial for
ecological reasons on one hand, and essential for artistic
reasons on the other hand. A round of distinctive panelists
on how to protect quality by staying independent.

Peter Kubelka:
The Edible Metaphor
Peter Kubelka. Lecture-Performance.
In the view of legendary Austrian avantgarde lm-
maker and art philosopher Peter Kubelka, everybody
who makes lms should also cook. For Peter Kubelka
cooking is performing art, and a meal is the ances-
tral sculpture of mankind cooking is the origin of
culture, as the mother of all arts. Food, exactly like
popular art, constitutes a means of communication. For
Peter Kubelka, prepared food is a medium to express
thoughts and feelings.
In The Edible Metaphor Peter Kubelka will perform
one of his famous food and art lectures. Philosophically
substantiated and marvellously entertaining, this sce-
nic and improvised lecture oers new ways of regard-
ing something that in every-day-life too often becomes
a robotic act of routine: cooking.

moderated by Larry Sider.
Discussion. In co-operation with School of Sound, NFTS.
The Cutting Crew is an in-depth discussion about the essence of cinema
editing and the role of the editor in the lmmaking process. A panel
of editors who have worked on lms ranging from Hong Kong Kung-Fu
to feature documentaries debate what exactly an editor does in shaping
a story or narrative. They will explore the strategies they follow in the
cutting room: the relationship between editor and director, the thinking
and intuition they need to organise image and sound into meaning and
emotions, and how editing diers between ction and documentary.
Moderated by Larry Sider, this panel features Jim Clark (VERA DRAKE,
THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH), Angie Lam (KUNG FU HUSTLE, HERO),
Sabine Krayenbhl (MAD HOT BALLROOM, MY ARCHITECT) and Dirk
Grau (RHYTHM IS IT, A FULL CIRCLE).

ment of manipulated species, which are being

Art as Moral Action
Peter Sellars. Lecture.
The self-conception of artists changes with the development
and the justication of society. The global community of the
21st century is aected by complex inuences and has ended
up in a diuse Distraction Culture, as Peter Sellars put it. The
highly acclaimed theatre, opera and lm director speaks out
against the culture of distraction and proclaims the need
for a culture of focus. In this lecture, Peter Sellars, Profes-
sor of World Arts and Cultures at the University of California
Los Angeles, will encourage artists to combat apathy and to

work is still deeply inuencing New Asian Cinema fol-
lowing the lms he has done with Wong Kar-wai, Zhang

The process of editing is often equated with sit-

Dick Fontaine. Screening and discussion.
Max. 90 participants.

Art is beautiful, but causes a lot of work, Ger-

while working, communicating and nding
compromises, one might lose his or her inner
voice and the deeper meaning of what he or
she was originally aiming for.
Whose Voice Is It Anyway? is a programme
for Talents to identify and, perhaps, to rethink
why, who and where they are in their work.
Dick Fontaine, Head of the Documentary
Direction at UK's National Film & Television
School (NFTS), will present a very diverse
group of student lms from the NFTS. In
these lms young lmmakers have used
strikingly dierent methods to express their
point of view. Analysing these methods will
challenge attending Talents to discuss how
they intend to deal with questions of iden-
tity, perspective and meaning in their own
lms.
The lm sometimes
ends before it's nished.

Maximize Distribution
Peter Broderick. Lecture. In co-operation with
the New Producers Alliance.
Independent lmmakers nowadays have unprec-
edented opportunities. Digital production is
shifting the balance of power from nanciers
to lmmakers. Filmmakers who can make mov-
ies digitally with lower budgets are no longer
wholly dependent on nanciers for the resources
and permission to make their lms. Likewise,
new distribution models are freeing them from
dependence on traditional distribution systems
that have been failing them. Peter Broderick's
revolutionary and successful approach will be
the topic of Maximize Distribution, a fantastic
opportunity for lmmakers to take control and
responsibility for the sales of their own lms.
Peter Broderick is president of Paradigm Con-
sulting, which provides consulting services to
lmmakers and media companies. He is one of
the leading experts on distribution strategies
and alternative means of distribution.
I believe that there
are as many ways to look
at something as there
are viewers.

Risking It All
David Thompson. Workshop. In
co-operation with BBC Films.
Risking it all in Independent Film-
making: For an independent lm
to be successful it needs to be out
there on the edge lms in the
centre dont get noticed. Being
out on the edge is obviously a very
dangerous place to be because
you can fall o! Giving examples
from recent BBC Films, especially
those using radical improvisatory
techniques, David Thompson will
explore the theme of risk taking
within independent lmmaking
and ask the question: what ingre-
dients give us the best chance of
making an independent lm suc-
cessful? Extracts will include A
COCK AND BULL STORY, IN THIS
WORLD, CONFETTI, MRS HENDER-
SON PRESENTS and LOVE + HATE.

Confessions
of a Dramaturg
David Wingate. Max. 30 participants. Tickets via voucher required.
In co-operation with SOURCES 2.
Imagine that people developing a lm ask you to join their working
process as a dramaturg and a member of their creative team. They
send you what they have written so far, and you plan to meet for
a rst working session. As a professional dramaturg, how do you
approach the written material? How do you prepare for that rst
working session? How do you judge and analyse the material? And
how do you translate your preparatory work into input which is going
be creatively stimulating for those working on the lm?
David Wingate talks about working methods, based on his own and
colleagues experience of working all over Europe in the Sources 2
programme.

REFLECTION is a Polish-German lm project produced
by two lm schools: the Andrzej Wajda Master School of
Film Directing and the ifs internationale lmschule kln.
It started with the idea of portraying life in a Polish and a
German small town. The project was guided by a series of
international workshops and resulted in a production of 12
short documentaries, directed by the students under the
artistic supervision of experienced lmmakers and tutors.
These twelve shorts form the lm REFLECTION which
presents the directors vision of life in two small towns:
Gora Kalwaria (Poland) and Remscheid-Lennep (Germany).
The students made short portraits of the people living in
these places.
In today's programme, student lmmakers as well as the
project's mentors will introduce their lm and talk about its
genesis. REFLECTION is not only a nished cinematic form,
but a programme of intercultural cooperation in a eld of
lm, which allowed the authors, characters and cultures to
reect each others point of views and nd a new meaning
in the confrontations and relations.

Dagmar Benke. Lecture. Max. 90 participants.
In co-operation with Script House Berlin.
For many years we have learned that the perfect
form for lmic story telling is the chronological
one-hero-one-goal three-act-structure. However,
there are millions of great and successful lms that
did not force their stories into that form but found
a form that developed out of the story. Dagmar
Benke, Script Consultant at Berlin-based Script
House and author of the scriptwriting book Fre-
istil (Freestyle), will talk about alternatives to the
classic three-act-structure with a special emphasis
on non-linear narration. So break the rules, free
yourself from tting your story into paradigms and
discover the form inside your story.

look at them, tell them,

The Cutting Kitchen
Angie Lam, interviewed by Larry Sider.
In co-operation with School of Sound and NFTS.
For Angie Lam, the martial art lm has been a natural part
of her life: For me, its just a lullaby and brought me up.
Not surprisingly, she is best known for her editing of Hong
Kong Kung-Fu lms. In this session, Angie will look at her
editing in several lms from this spectacular genre (TAI
CHI, KUNG FU HUSTLE, HERO) as she reveals how she thinks
of the lm editor like a chef in a kitchen: My editing suite is
like a cutting kitchen. An overcooked lm may mean you
handled the timing and pace of the lm wrongly. If it tastes
too rich that may mean you used too many shots or angles
when one or two would do. Many young editors try to use
all their coverage which can spoil or distract from the story.
The presentation of the dish is how we package the lm.
Moderated by Larry Sider, participants in this session will
become aware of how editors approach feature lms and,
in this case, the details of editing martial arts movies.

Discussion. Max. 90 participants.
In co-operation with FIPRESCI and

Some lmmakers may feel as if they
have been eaten alive when they read
the reviews in the morning after a pre-
miere. But do critics really pleasurably
feast on directors? Isn't a review just a
written-down opinion about a piece of
art? The relationship between critics and
filmmakers traditionally suffers from
a two-way distrust: one party doesnt
believe in the others attitude towards
their art and crafts. On the other hand:
one couldn't exist without the other the
classical Catch-22 of a love-hate relation-
ship. But we want to help! Moderated by
Peter Cowie, lm historian and former
international publisher of Variety, crit-
ics Margret Khler (Germany), Michel
Ciment (France) and Derek Malcolm (UK)

The Holy Trinity: Writer, Characters and Audience
Julian Friedmann. Lecture. Max. 30 participants. Tickets via voucher
required. In co-operation with Blake Friedmann Agency.
The relationship between the scriptwriters holy trinity is usually taken for
granted. Unless scriptwriters understand why they write and why people go
to the movies, the chances are that they will write derivative scripts based
on movies they have seen. The creative process in script development is
not simply natural. Writing well means being devious and manipulative.
It usually means cheating. A love aair with your characters might destroy
your relationship with your audience and your career as a writer. How should
writers manage their mnage a trois?

Visual Rhythm Ian Christie on the
Rhythm and Editing of the Classics
Ian Christie. Lecture. Max. 90 participants.
Filmmakers from around the world worried that synch sound
would destroy their editing strategies at the end of the 1920s
much as some present-day lmmakers also worry that music
videos are enforcing a new editing rhythm, helped by the
rise of non-linear editing systems. But have the underlying
principles of editing really changed?
This lecture will be looking at some classics, from the 1920s
to the 1990s, to track the changes. Film publicist Ian Christie
is Professor of Film and Media History at Birkbeck, University
of London, and teaches regularly at the UK National Film and
Television School.
I prefer the lms that raise
questions over the ones that
try to answer them...

BERLINALE TALENT CAMPUS #4 PAGE 57
When you are on your way through the House of World
Cultures, or busy with one of the Working Campus projects,
and you suddenly get the feeling of being watched: Its no
reason to get nervous. Up to four camera crews are moving
from event to event, from project to performance and up
and down the hallways in order to document the entire
Berlinale Talent Campus.
The Making Of is organised by Germanys international
broadcaster Deutsche Welle TV (DW-TV), o cial co-part-
ner of the Berlinale Talent Campus 2006. Responsible for
this documenting project are DW-TV producers Melanie
Matthus and Bettina Kolb who try to cover the most
important and most interesting scenes and activities dur-
ing the six Campus days. Their team consists of 16 trainees
from Berlin (digital media designers/sound and vision)
and ve journalists who are divided into four TV crews.
One of these crews has already been on the road since
January to follow all pre-production activities of the Talent
Movies of the Week, whereas a second team closes in on
the work of the three sound designers at the Volkswagen
Score Competition. The other teams swarm the House of
World Cultures to collect atmospherical material, quotes
and event highlights. Canon supports the project by pro-
viding the Mini-DV cameras and equipment.
Every evening in the o ce of the DW-TV team at the
House of World Cultures the entire days material is viewed,
selected, digitalised and edited on AVID Adrenalin into a
5-8 minute-long Daily.
Beginning from the Philosophy Day these daily recaps are
screened every day at 14:00 in the Auditorium and Theatre,
and at 16:00 in the Campus Lounge and the Wild Screening
room. At the end of the week the DW-TV crew produces
its wrap up Making of Talent Campus the denitive
documentary of an unforgettable week, marking the best
moments, collecting voices and preserving extraordinary
experiences. It will be shown on Thursday, February 16,
20:00 at the Farewell Ceremony.
So, the next time you have the feeling of being watched in
the House of World Cultures: Dont panic! Its DW-TV or
someone who wants to get in touch with you. But thats
another story.
With 80 events and lectures over six days, 520 Talents from all over
the world, activities around the clock its impossible to be aware
of everything. But there is no need to: thanks to the Making Of.

The Doc Clinic
The Doc Clinic is back for its second year, thanks to the
support of the Filmfderungsanstalt (FFA) who also
contributed to the Script Clinic. The Doc Clinic allows
12 Talents from 10 countries the chance to bounce their
documentary script ideas o of industry professionals.
The mentors for the 2006 Doc Clinic include Aelrun
Goette (Director, DIE KINDER SIND TOT), Dick Fontaine
(Head of Documentary Direction, NFTS London), and
David Wingate (SOURCES2). The Doc Clinic is comprised
of intensive one on one meetings in combination with
a series of seminars, kicking o on Sunday, February 12
with a welcome session, and winding down on Febru-
ary 14 with a wrap up session.
The Script Clinic
The 15 participants in this years script clinic are mem-
bers of the third cohort of the Script Clinic. This years
mentors include renowned experts like Franz Roden-
kirchen (ScriptHouse), Alby James (Leeds University),

Femis) and Gyula Gazdag (Screenwriting, UCLA).
Before the Script Clinic begins, each of the ve men-
tors will read the scripts of the participants, and dur-
ing the Campus, Talents will have the opportunity
to meet with their mentors for feedback. The Script
Clinic runs over three days, from the welcome ses-
sion on Sunday, February 12 to the closing session
on February 14.
Talent Movie of the Week
Almost 400 young lmmakers from 56 countries
applied for the Talent Movie of the Week, and
three scripts were chosen to be realised by teams
made up of selected Talents. From script to screen
in about two weeks, this is instant lmmaking in
the spirit of the Berlinale. The idea seems crazy to
some, but the results of the TMOTW competition
have proved pleasantly surprising. Last years win-
ning lm, the 8 minute long CATARACT by Sainath
Choudhury, went on to various Festivals, including
the Milano International Film Festival. This years
mentor, Park Chan-wook, will work closely with the
three teams, helping them move their ideas from
the page to the big screen.
The three Talent directors arrived in Berlin at the
start of February to begin putting their projects
together with help from Edda Baumann-von Broen
and Cordula Kablitz-Post of the Berlin based pro-
duction company Avanti Media Fiction GmbH. After
a few days of mingling, meeting and greeting, cast-
ing and visiting locations, the two-day shoot began,
using an HDV Cam XL H1 digital camera provided
by Canon. The editing was packed into another two
days, using AVID Xpress, and followed by another
jam packed two days of mixing and colour grading
at cine plus.

Volkswagen Score Competition
To take advantage of the many gifted sound designers
and composers that apply to the Berlinale Talent Cam-
pus every year, the Working Campus includes a compe-
tition where music is the main attraction. Before arriving
in Berlin, musically focused Talents were encouraged to
apply for the Volkswagen Score Competition by add-
ing their own music to three lm clips made available
to them online. The head of the selection jury and this
years Mentor for the Volkswagen Score Competition
is Stephen Warbeck, (p.21), who will provide valuable
coaching to the three Talents as they navigate through
the creation of totally new soundscapes.
During the Campus, the three selected talents are
given the opportunity to work with the Babelsberg
Film Orchestra conducted by Bernd Wefelmeyer, to
practice sound editing with cine plus, and work on
their compositions with the Konrad Wol Film and
Television Academy in Potsdam. Their creations will
go before a jury on the 15th of February. During the
Farewell Ceremony on the 16th, Stephen Warbeck,
Christiane Krebs-Hartmann (Volkswagen), and a rep-
resentative from Dolby will announce the lucky winner,
who will be invited by Dolby for a trip to Los Angeles
where she/he will visit the best studios in town.
Talent Project Market
The 17 projects chosen for the Talent Project Mar-
ket are presented in cooperation with the Berli-
nale Co-Production Market, allowing Talents a rare
opportunity to get in touch with over 350 produc-
ers, nanciers, distributors, sales agents and broad-
casters from around the world. On the rst day of
the Talent Project Market, Talents are advised with
regards to pitching, presenting and preparing their
projects for the international market. Furthermore,
they receive training on international co-produc-
ing and nancing. On the second day, Talents take
part in the Berlinale Co-Production Market, where
they meet possible partners for their project. The
potential of this experience is exemplied by the
work of Atsushi Funahashi, whose feature BIG RIVER
was in the Talent Project Market in 2004, and is
back at the Berlinale this year as a part of Forum,
and by Marc Bauders LAST TO KNOW, which will
be screened during this years Panorama. The VFF
Verwertungsgesellschaft der Film- und Fernseh-
produzenten is also sponsoring, for the third year,
a Highlight Pitch, where three pre-selected Talent
projects are pitched to the industry and receive
an award.
