Testimonials

You are great! I really enjoy watching the films, listening to you and contemplating about them. I have the same feeling of excitement when you look forward to the next sequel of some series which can only be seen on TV. So, I’m waiting for the next films and their analysis as well and I'm looking forward to our next meetup!

Thank you for a new and different insight into the world of film through the films themselves… and especially for your explanations. Since I work in a school far from Zagreb, we are not able to attend "ordinary" Film EDUcation, which means that this medium is a complete success. This way ,you can reach a larger audience, and as far as my school is concerned, I am at your disposal for this or some similar form of cooperation. THANK YOU very much for this opportunity!

Majda Milevoj Klapčić, prof. i dipl. knjiž.High school Mate Blažina, Labin

First of all, I commend you for the selection of films and for your great organization. I learned a lot, especially from your analysis. I have to admit that I haven't seen a lot of Croatian short films so far, and now, thanks to you, I'm researching what to watch next all the time. Thank you for this opportunity and I hope that there will be more workshops of this type.

Fantasy! You are well organized and methodically prepared. Obviously, you know the needs and opportunities of people in the 21st century. In addition to your own internal motivation, your dosage, clear instructions, frequent change of speakers, short and thematically diverse films, quizzes with instant feedback and specific data in the analyzes are what kept me with the Film EDUcation.

Iva Bodrožić-Selak, prof.High school Matija Antun Reljković

The fourth graders are thrilled with the animated films made by their peers. They follow them with interest, repeat the terms related to the film and are looking forward to the sequels!

Thank you for the excellent Film EDUcation! I enjoyed watching the great movies you chose for us and took the quizzes you gave us very seriously. 🙂 Special praise to the analysis leaders with whom we learned a lot while observing and contemplating… Great experience!

Kristinka VugrinecElementary school dr. Ivana Novaka Macinec

I commend absolutely everything, thank you for the excellent organization, implementation and analysis, and I sincerely hope that such workshops will be repeated, held more often and expanded to some other levels, both age and theme related. It would be interesting to see what it looks like live in the Tuškanac cinema, although I believe that in this way you approached a larger part of the interested audience, which very likely could not otherwise attend this experience.

Thank you for the opportunity to attend this type of education. You were great in every way, I especially like the “dissecting” of the films because every move of the camera has its own „why and because“ and it introduces us further into the story that the film tells. THANK YOU!
