The title says it all: 3 pupils make 3 short films together. Each student directs one film, takes the camera and stars in one. The young people choose the topics themselves.
As part of the ‘Kultur macht stark’ programme, the Pfefferwerk Foundation made the ‘3 OF A KIND’ project by Sebastian Krumeich possible.
The filmmaker also came to us with his idea and made short films with 25 young people. The filming shows how much fun it was for everyone and how professionally they acted in front of and behind the camera within a short space of time.
After a short introduction, we got straight down to business: the young people were able to try out their first camera angles and come up with a story.
All the films will be watched together on our final evening at the end of February.
Some of them will then be shown on YouTube and on our Fliegerwerkstatt website.
Our friends at the Museum of Technology regularly give our young aircraft enthusiasts great guided tours of Hangar 4, where three historic aircraft are being restored: the Ilyushin IL-14, the Douglas C-54 Skymaster (‘Rosinenbomber’) and the Fokke-Wulf 200 (Condor).
The first biscuits have been baked and a Christmas tree made!
On Friday, the Fliegerwerkstatt invites you to the year-end and Christmas party! Be there on 20 December from 2 pm!
Planned by the friends’ association, financed by Berliner Sparkasse, realised with the help of Fliegerwerkstatt: a large game with 30cm high figures has been created for the schoolyard of Ernst-Habermann-primary school.
Together with our project partner ‘Arbeit und Bildung e.V.’, the programme ‘Practical training and basic qualification for young refugees’ is starting again this school year – funded by the Senate Department for Education, Youth and Family. During the orientation phase, all six groups come to the Fliegerwerkstatt for a week. The focus here is on arriving, getting to know each other and gaining initial professional orientation.
In the next stage, the young people come to the Fliegerwerkstatt three days a week after two school days or are on a work placement.
Get-to-know-you games on day 1 * Practice pieces at the workbench * Making work clothes with screen printing * Collaboration on ongoing larger projects: e.g. planting in the courtyard, welding a metal stand, partition walls for the hangars in Tempelhof * Daily cooking and lunch together.
We are delighted to have the support of Binta, our new federal volunteer in the Fliegerwerkstatt!
We have a full two-week programme right at the start of the holidays:
We look forward to welcoming young people aged 12 and over. Registration by e-mail to: fliegerwerkstatt@socialreturn.de – Admission free!
