How many numbers does art need?

“Too many” many will think. But a structured set of figures - starting with the calculation, through the ongoing cost determination to the final statement - lays the foundation for the financial success of a report, documentary or cinema documentary. So that this is easy to handle, the seminar provides the participants with the basic knowledge of bookkeeping and film management step by step. From the "basic" - treatment/screenplay - to a "tour" through all departments, the speaker Gabriele Müller discusses in two modules (each 2-day seminars) all the essential elements of a cinema documentary film calculation, including settlement with the film subsidy.
