Implementation of the program "Doc at first sight"
Το Doc at First Sight σχεδιάστηκε με στόχο να προσφέρει βασικές γνώσεις και
δεξιότητες πάνω στον κινηματογράφο και τη δημιουργία ντοκιμαντέρ. Υλοποιήθηκε
τον Οκτώβριο του 2023 στη Σύρο, ένα νησί με πλούσια πολιτιστική παράδοση, και
απευθυνόταν σε άτομα με ενδιαφέροντα για τη φωτογραφία, τον κινηματογράφο και
τις τέχνες.
Εισηγητές ήταν οι σκηνοθέτες Κυριάκος Αγγελάκος και Στέλιος Τατάκης. Edu4all δράση
περιλάμβανε θεωρία αλλά και πρακτική εφαρμογή με λήψεις και γυρίσματα, ώστε
να είναι ολοκληρωμένη και να δίνει την ευκαιρία στους συμμετέχοντες και τις
συμμετέχουσες α) να αποκτήσουν μια όσο το δυνατόν πλήρη και «από μέσα» επαφή
με τον κινηματογράφο, β) να μπορούν να εκφραστούν με αυτό το μέσο και τελικά γ) να μπορούν να δημιουργήσουν το δικό τους ντοκιμαντέρ.
During the organization, three meetings took place: the first involved the initial introduction to the participants and the first presentation on documentaries, while subsequent meetings focused on training and enhancing skills in directing and editing. Additionally, three group meetings were held in an outdoor setting for shooting and filming, along with an open event to present the project to the public.
The filming location, which was the Tarsanas Shipyard in Syros, was selected during the first meeting through a dialogic discussion with the participants in the program. At the time of the project implementation, in October 2023, Tarsanas housed numerous wooden boats for repair, as well as shipwrights, providing a rich backdrop for photography and filming.
The action was completed with the creation of a short documentary that captured the artistic component of the entire team. Both technically and artistically, it bore the "stamp" of experienced instructors who, in a short period and with the participation of everyone, managed to complete the documentary. Here is the link to the YouTube platform for viewing the documentary created during Doc at First Sight: https://youtu.be/YRyYF5cLz8k?si=eyS0Kr5coI0zVDoo, followed by a small selection of photos taken by the participants during the program at the filming location, Tarsanas in Syros.
Here is an article published in the local press (Logo newspaper) about the screening event of the documentary, the Doc at First Sight program, and the goals of 'Edu4all – Education for All.
We had the joy and honor to collaborate with exceptional instructors and a very active and capable team of participants, who, as they mentioned in their evaluations, found it 'different and very interesting as a program.' We want to continue with the same energy and pace in our upcoming actions.
