Enhance Your Creative and Technical Skills with Broadcast and Film Training
It’s quiet on the set, the actors are in place, the cameras are rolling and you’re right in the thicket of the excitement, either behind the camera or in another role. This type of exciting moment can be yours everyday in the field of broadcasting and film. The roles of this extensive industry vary, but you only need one program to be prepared for all of them.
Centennial College in Toronto, offers its Broadcasting and Film program to those who want to learn both the creative and technical skills they’ll need to make a career in film, television and radio. In the program, students are placed directly in the action with the school’s unique HDTV broadcasting studios where they get a feel for being behind the camera as well as in front of it. The practical experience of the in-house studio also allows students to develop a balance between artistic and commercial aspects of the industry. They also participate in student films and TV as well as a student-produced news magazine TV show that airs live and online. All of these experiences prepare them for a 15-week industry field placement. During this placement students apply practice to real life situations at radio and TV stations, production houses and much more. But don’t take my word for it. Shannon Loftus is a Unit Assistant and a graduate of the Broadcasting and Film program. This is what she had to say: ?”…I learned what I liked and what I didn’t, and I gained the confidence and knowledge to follow my dreams for a career at CityTV. You can’t substitute the internship experience that Centennial offers.”

The Museum Embankment Festival
Frankfurt is more than the Mainhattan area, its banks and its enormous airport, even though those are the things that often come to mind when you think of this German city. To truly discover it, it might be an idea to visit Frankfurt from the 26th to the 28th of August during the Museum Embankment Festival (or the Frankfurter Museumsuferfest). This cultural marathon of huge proportions was conceived to bring the city’s museums closer to visitors and locals, alike.
The festival takes place on the banks of the Main River in an area of the city that is already very attractive, with sidewalk cafés, coffee houses and restaurants. All around these, the museums put up their informational tents and organise various activities. The site of the festival is a perfect place to relax and enjoy yourself in the company of other museum visitors, and Frankfurt definitely has museums to suit every taste.
