Birmingham.

Chamberlain Clock and the Rose Villa Tavern, Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham UK

Birmingham.
A word that is synonymous for future, master, and scary things.
For over a year I had this one course on my mind- A Master program called Film Marketing and Distribution at Birmingham City University. Reading through the course description got me SO excited and I was annoyed that I couldn't start the course right away or at least I apply- I wanted this SO badly. It is a super new and unique course that is very practically oriented with loads of projects and working with real filmmakers. I went to visit the uni for an open day last November and it is quite similar to my uni now, very new and modern and I really liked what I was told- small groups, almost office like building because they want you to feel like this is the first year working rather than still studying. And wanna hear the COOLEST thing? A placement at Cannes Film Festival is part of the course. And here it is- I applied before Christmas, had my interview today via Skype- and I am in! I am actually so much more nervous now than before the interview, because even though I am happy, this is so real now!

AAAAAH!!!

  2. Glückwunsch! Mir ging es so mit meiner Weiterbildung, die ich dieses Jahr in Hamburg antrete - ich habe erst gestern wieder geträumt, dass ich mich nochmal qualifizieren muss, und bin aufgewacht um festzustellen: GEIL ICH BIN DOCH SCHON DABEI! :D Das war auch so ein irrealer Traum der plötzlich wahr wurde vor ein paar Monaten.
    Ich wünsche dir ganz viel Spaß, vor allem in Cannes, wow! - Aber Birmingham ist bestimmt auch sonst ein Traum.
