Film & Architecture Workshop: Leave No One Behind

About

Copenhagen Architecture Festival and BARLETI University have partnered up to organize a one-week film & architecture workshop focusing on filmmaking and socially inclusive design.

During the one-week program, through lectures, group exercises and guided explorations of Tirana, you will learn about the potential of architecture and design to further the LNOB agenda, and apply this knowledge to create your own short film documenting or addressing non-discriminatory design solutions found in the built, grown and/or planned environment of the Albanian capital city.
After developing the concept for your film in the first sessions with the guidance of international guest lectures, you will explore the process of filmmaking, gaining concrete knowledge about organizing, filming and editing your work, as well as creating a relevant, dramaturgically well-functioning story. Professional filmmakers and editors will instruct you and assist you in the production of a maximum 3-minute-long film.

Target group

The course is open to anyone interested in the intersection of film and architecture - students and professionals alike, with a background in a relevant field of film, visual arts, photography, architecture, design, urban planning, anthropology, ethnology, social sciences and humanities.
Participants are expected to have a basic knowledge of film production.

Course aim

This workshop aims at developing short films documenting solutions to spatial discrimination, creating an understanding of the diversity of the reality in which the LNOB agenda must be resolved, and generating new knowledge and insight about sustainable and inclusive public spaces, residential areas, buildings, building materials, infrastructures, and other urban practices that promote the fight against inequality.
