Let’s Make a Movie
In 2023, more than 40 students and their teachers from 12 schools in Etropole and Srednogorie regions took part in the initiative. Firstly, the youngsters were trained by university professors from the National Academy of Theatre and Film Arts “Krastyo Sarafov” and the Bulgarian National Television. Consequently, the budding filmmakers assumed the roles of screenwriters, directors, operators and film editors who worked enthusiastically as real life crew members. As a result, they produced 2 short documentaries about key mining professions.
Let’s Make a Movie project continued with the production 7 audiovisual works dedicated to key mining professions at Ellatzite-Med. The filmmakers and commentators in these documentaries were students attending a dual training programme and their mentors. The film “Four Metres Above the Ground” made by students from Hristo Yasenov Secondary School in Etropole won Best Documentary Award at the 13th edition of Harlequin International Youth Media Festival in Varna.
