A two-year cycle of cine graphs of the Film Festival
Chania closed this weekend and a new cycle, bigger and
richer, will start in September with more cinematic
games, training sessions, workshops, conferences, and, of course, more
“shooting” and more creations of audiovisual products.
This year the topics were: (a) How do we make documentaries with children? and (b)
We organize film clubs for children. Eight two-day meetings were held
meetings (a total of 70 hours of training and action).
Participants (teachers, students, animators, parents)
have come to know the methods and techniques by which the
films as cultural products (study and critical approach
“ready-made” audiovisual products), then used
experiences and skills to organize audiovisual expression workshops
for children (inside and outside the classroom), to organize events
open to the local community and carry out with the children simple
audiovisual presentations (photographing, filming, filming).
We are ready to organize film literacy workshops in
the whole country (in person or with asynchronous and synchronous communication) where we are called:
