This is not about big production value, this is about art-on-the-run. The only restriction is the time: ONE MINUTE! Upload the video on vimeo, youtube or whatever channel and send the link along with the filled in application form below. Good luck!
08 Old School
Wolfgang Kaskeline (* 1897) was a director of promotional films for UFA, as well as a producer
and professor at the Berlin Weissensee School of Art and Design.
Originally a painter, the movie enthusiastic art teacher and commercial artist ended up in the field of animated cartoons. In the 1920’s, Wolfgang Kaskeline already produced his first animated cartoons.
Amongst others Kaskeline created the famous ‘Sarotti Mohr’, the little black boy who became the company’s trademark. With the beginning of sound film in the early 1930’s, he was one of the first directors to produce animated advertising films with sound. In 1949, Wolfgang Kaskeline founded the first film academy under private law in Berlin. In 1987 was the birth of the Kaskeline-Filmakademie in Berlin, managed by Heinz and Jutta Kaskeline. Based upon the approved ‘Hands-On’ method and the unique concept of the Kaskeline-Filmakademie, Art-on-the-Run Filmschool Berlin recreated the school both in a technical and theoretical sense to meet the requirements of the film industry of the 21st century.
