The newCreative EuropeProgramme has had

a promising start in 2014 by placing a specialfocus on audience development and film literacy.A new funding scheme has been established tosupport the exchange of best practices and crossborder collaboration among European initiatives,with a focus on children and young audiences.

In anticipation of these new fundingopportunities a number of Creative Europe Desksworked together to encourage interaction amongleading film literacy institutions and begancollecting data on existing literacy initiativesthroughout Europe. The data was provided bynational institutions such as film institutes aswell as the Creative Europe Desk Network. Thisoverview is partial and only reflects selections ofthe partner institutions. Nevertheless itdemonstrates an impressive variety of initiativesand approaches across all member states and itis also a call for partnerships.

This booklet is a work in progress. It is intendedas a complement to the in depth analysisprovided by the Screening Literacy Report,published by a consortium under the lead ofthe BFI in spring 2013.

This first edition is being published withthe generous support of the Polish Film Institute. We would also like to thank our partnersand colleagues for their valuable contribution.

Wewould like to present you the ‘FilmLiteracy Initiatives’ booklet that is

intended as a source of information about filmeducation provision in Europe and inspiration forinternational co-operation especially in contextof the new Creative Europe Programme. Thisbooklet is not a complete list of film literacyinitiatives from the member states. Nevertheless,we hope it will contribute to collecting such dataon the European level.

Since the very beginning, this booklet wasthought as an appendix to the Screening LiteracyReport published by the British Film Institutein June 2013, which not only offered a close lookto the role and state of film literacy in Europe butalso presented the best examples of educationalprojects. Our aim is to show the richness of suchinitiatives carried out in Europe and to facilitatethe process of networking among institutionsinvolved in film education.

This booklet would not take place withoutthe kind support of Creative Europe DeskNetwork, who collected the vast majority of itscontent. We owe special thanks to allthe institutions mentioned in this booklet as theypassionately and consistently educategenerations of concious and sensitive audiences.

SHORT DESCRIPTION OF THE INITIATIVE

The Austrian Film Museum has beenoffering special film education programmessince 2002. Next to special programmesthe main activities consist of threeprogrammes offered on a regular basis:‘Schools in the Cinema’, ‘Focus Film’and ‘Summer School’. The underlying ideaof all these initiatives is to fosteran understanding for film as a documentand artform, focusing on the specificities ofthe medium with respect to its form as wellas its materiality.

SHORT DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITIES, ACHIEVEMENTS

Next to special programmes the mainactivities consist of three programmesoffered on a regular basis: ‘Schools

in the Cinema’ offers between 14 and 16programmes each semester, ranging fromlectures on montage, the manipulation oftime in cinema to the idea of the StarSystem to an analysis of film beginnings.Also included are screenings of films in theiroriginal format and language withthe possibility of talking to the directorafterwards or analyzing the film in detail.Next to that ‘Focus Film’ offers interestedschool classes the possibility to learn aboutdifferent aspects of film intensivelyin the course of one semester. Everysemester a new Focus Film isconceptualized, ranging from learning toanalyze and program avant-garde films,shooting, developing and editing a 16mmfilm, dealing with different modes ofdocumentaries, etc. Both ‘Schoolsin the Cinema’ and ‘Focus Film’ offerprogrammes for children ranging from 6 to

18/or older. Finally, the Film Museum hasbeen offering a Summer School forteachers and others interested in teachingfilm. In the course of three days differentways to teach film are presented, alwaysfocusing on trying to mediate film asa specific art form (as opposed to usingfilms to talk about topics). The SummerSchool and all other programmes takeplace in the cinema, are presented with filmprints whenever possible and try to givean idea of film that encompasses examplesfrom narrative, documentary, avant-garde,experimental and industrial films. Achievements: Up to 4500 children visitthe Film Museum’s film educationalprogrammes every semester, the SummerSchool has been attended by 30 to 50teachers each year.

COORDINATING INSTITUTION, PARTNERS, FUNDERS

The Film Museum is the institutioncoordinating all of these activities, about95% of them also take place at the FilmMuseum and about 40-50% are actuallycarried out by Film Museum staff(Alejandro Bachmann & Stefan Huber).Whenever necessary the Film Museumteams up with other institutions to carryout an educational activity: The filmkoopWien (a lab for analogue film processing)can be a partner when a 16mm film ismade, the youth media festival YOUKIcollaborated in showing an avant-gardeprogramme curated by children, currently

the Film Museum collaborates withthe Cinémathèque Francaise for the project‘Le cinéma, cent ans de jeunesse’.The educational programmes of the FilmMuseum are funded by the Austrian FederalMinistry for Education, the Arts and Culture,the Cultural Department of the City ofVienna (MA7) and Film and Music Austria.’

ACTIVITIES AND PARTNERS FOR WHICH YOU ARELOOKING FOR

The Film Museum is generally open to allsorts of international educational activitiesin the field of film education (not so muchin the more general concept of mediaeducation). A special interest would be tocooperate with thoseinstitutions/initiatives that have a specialinterest in integrating avant-gardeand experimental film as well asan awareness for the specificity ofthe analogue medium into theireducational activities.

We Want Cinema is an online platform onwhich the costumer decides what is beingshown in the movie theatre. Schools area welcome target group of WWC, as WWCwill give school classes the opportunity tosee films in a cinema setting, at time slotsthat are not directly profitable for cinemas.We Want Cinema created a total newmarket and target audience (teachers) forthe platform by integrating the educationaltool. Today, many schools offer filmscreenings and some universities even usecinema venues for lectures. Film isan essential instrument for teaching. One ofour ideals is therefore to offer a low-thresholdaccess to film heritage to educationinstitutions. Once a group is recognized asan education institute, WWC will offer

reductions for using a cinema venueand make other arrangements for payment(e.g. package deals, time slot offers). Thisimprovement will be pursued bythe national partners and the managementof contact with schools will happenin cooperation with the national filminstitutions like in The Netherlands with‘EYE education’.

SHORT DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITIES, ACHIEVEMENTS

This educational project will be initiatedfirstly in the Netherlands in school year2013/2014, and will be extended to othercountries in coming years (see table 5).Together with the EYE film institutein the Netherlands, and national filminstitutions in other countries, WWC hasdeveloped an education tool withinthe We Want Cinema Platform. The tool

makes it easy for teachers to select films(with educational materials) and organizean educational screening inside a localcinema. Resulting in an increasing amountof educational film events and thusin revenue for the associated cinemasand content owners. In 2013/2014, researchwill be carried out in the participatingcountries to detect the best way of servingthe educational market and get insightsin the market size and competition of thatterritory.
