Film education
Since 2016, we have been providing film education for educational institutions at all levels: from primary and secondary education to vocational education, higher education, and universities.
The new generation is growing up in a time where film is constantly present.
Whether it's at school with tablets or on the go with smartphones, film is everywhere. Digitalization ensures that film is becoming more and more a part of our daily lives. We seem to take the abundance of films for granted.
Unfortunately, there is little focus on the power and beauty of film in schools and higher education institutions, while film uniquely tells us something: through moving images and sound.
At MFilms, we believe that it should now be possible for everyone to not only experience and understand the power of visual stories, but also to create them.
By 2024, almost all young people have their own smartphone with a built-in camera, allowing them to share their own professional and personal development and experiences in a visual way.
At Mfilms, we encourage this as not only a valuable tool for creative expression but also for developing important skills such as communicating through images, presenting oneself, collaborating, and critical thinking.
Filming and vlogging is very popular and a great way for young people to present themselves to the world. In our workshop, students will learn how to quickly and easily create a beautiful film or vlog with their own smartphone or our iPads.
In the animation workshop, students learn various aspects of the animation process. The specific content may vary based on the students' level, the duration of the workshop, and the materials used.
In an Animation workshop, students learn the basic principles of animation, including timing, movement, and character design. They also explore storyboard techniques, work with animation software, and develop skills for frame-by-frame and stop-motion animation.
The goal of an animation workshop is often not only to develop technical skills but also to stimulate the creativity and expression of the students. It provides an opportunity to tell stories and visually express ideas.

- ODBS Europe, Enschede
