Production team project Brief:

InterCult 2008 is a project involving youth media projects from 10 countries (England, France, Hungary, Romania, Poland, Latvia, Germany, Sweden, Norway and Bulgaria).
Your brief is to produce a 10 minute TV magazine programme and a DVD which explores culture, cultural diversity, inter cultural communication and what this means to young people and the general public.

The final production will be broadcasted on Open Web TV and be showcased at the InterCult 2008 youth media festival, Munster, Germany in October 2008.
Participants from each production team will have the opportunity to travel to Munster to participate and be involved in the festival.

You will experience all elements of media production from camera work to sound production, editing, producing, reporting, presenting and journalistic skills aswell as other media skills. You can pick and choose what YOU want to do.
