In the film a young team explore the gloomy caves of a house, discovering a peculiar creature. We would like to once again give our congratulations to Pascal. He will be treated to a broadcast of his film on Swiss television (RTS). A masterclass analysing the film “Mulholland Drive” which was open to the public was given by Abderrahmane Bekiekh, a university lecturer at the University of Geneva and SAE Institute. This film by David Lynch was selected to demonstrate all the hidden meanings and subtleties of the film. Four students from the film section and one alumnus participated in Funkytown – Baby Plage Festival. A series of very varied concerts were given as part of the “Fêtes de Genève” (Geneva Festival). This was an opportunity for the film students to build up some hands-on experience at the side of icons such as Cock Robin, Lio, Earth, Wind & Fire not to men- tion all the other artists who aired on the local Swiss channel “Léman Bleu”. Some of the concerts were also broadcast on the Swiss radio station One FM. Every day the students were required to produce a two minute clip for “Léman Bleu” which led to a final twenty-six minute television show. “Miss and Mister Suisse Romande” occupied a number of film students in the production process, travelling for kilometres to places such as Tunisia. SAE Institute Geneva finally collaborated with Art’n Visual Production and the Gena Festival to film concerts on two nights. Students were able to gain experience as well as enjoying the pres- ence of international artists such as Grand Corps Malade and local Swiss artists like Carousel, Heidi Happy, Motherockers, Black Widow’s Project and many others. n 175 SAE & SAE ALUMNI NEWS // EUROPEAN NEWS Index
