European Film Business and Law:
Study week in Babelsberg
In-person lectures, visionary speech presentations, and a film quiz night for the students of the 1st year of the international master's program
We were very happy to see that our students found their way to Babelsberg from all over Europe and even Mexico to have their Module Leadership and Communication together. With lecturers Eric Kearney and Doris Friedl, the students learned and discussed about the foundations of leadership: styles and behaviors, visions, roles, and conflict resolution.
As one of many highlights, we organized a film quiz which took place in the cinema Thalia, in Potsdam, where the students could prove their film and TV drama knowledge.
