Peter Albrechtsen’s work in The Distant Barking of Dogs speaks for itself in the field of sound in a documentary film. It worked very much like a character in itself. He will takes us through the process of how the sound was created and the vision behind it.

Speaker: Peter Albrechtsen, Lydrummet

16.00–17.00 / Telling it Short The Sporadic Film Collective consists of 18 members who are all engaged in the process of filmmaking because they want more time and space to explore the field. By testing new methods and ideas in a calm, intuitive and open atmosphere, they become braver, more secure and hope to gain a grea ter understanding of the field as a whole. The Sporadic Film Collective produces film while the idea is still fresh. They work with a small crew and short production periods. The dogmas of the collective are: One idea. One meeting. One day of filming. Speaker: Det Sporadiske Filmkollektivet

Speakers: Lise Saxtrup, Producer, Klassefilm, Trine Laier, Director
