Overview: Discussions Workshops Film Music Gala



Program
Sunday June 23 through Sunday June 30, 2002


Run Lola Run, Amelie, Apocalypse Now Redux - today it is impossible to imagine the cinema experience without film music and sound design. What would the most gripping images be without the enthralling effect of sound? Today, how many stars from the music scene also work for the film industry, and what successful film does not draw at least some of its effect from its soundtrack? The IFMB is the world's only event that finally makes the sound and the music in films the subject of an extensive program.

Panels of international juries will decide who wins the endowed European prizes and the prize for the best recent feature film music. The awards will be presented at an open-air gala organized by the Kunst- und Ausstellungshalle der Bundesrepublik Deutschland on June 28. The competition program is open to the public and will be shown in the presence of the jury from June 25 through 27. The Biennial also boasts a varied accompanying program of workshops, concerts, performances and clubnites. From June 27 through 29 students and lecturers from over 20 colleges from throughout Europe will be meeting to discuss their various training models.

Accreditation fee for specialist visitors (not including concerts): € 40.-
