DMJX at Lumix Festival

The Danish School of Media and Journalism are very visible at the Lumix Festival in Hannover this weekend. More than 20 of our students are parcipating together with faculty teachers, Mads Greve and Søren Pagter.

Søren Pagter is giving port folio reviews both on Friday and Saturday. And a lot of our students have been selected to exhibit at the festival.

You can see the following DMJX-students’ projects at the festival:

Sara Galbiati, who graduated in 2010, will exhibit her final BA project Lucha Libre about Mexican wrestling culture.

Fara Phoebe Zetzsche, international student from Germany, will exhibit her project Hoard and Clutter about a family with 12 children, who collects so many things that it’s considered a desease. Fara has worked on the project for some years and has during her study this year added new work to the story.

Asbjørn Sand, who is in his final year, will exhibit his project Roll Whatever about skateboarders.

Tobias Nørgaaard’s exhibition at the Lumix Festival.

Tobias Nørgaard Pedersen, who is also in his final year, will exhibit his 7th semester project The PlayStation Proletariat about a group of young men not finishing an education. Tobias also won first prize at the Danish POY with this project.

Antonia Zennaro, who graduated from our Advanced Visual Photojournalism programme in the autumn 2009, are exhibiting her project The Disappearing Mile about Reeperbahn in Hamburg – a project which she began to shoot while studying at DMJX.

Jonas Opperskalski, international student from Germany, will show his multimedia story about a Roma family who, after living eight months with no residence permit and in constant fear of deportation, decide to return to Macedonia of their own accord. Jonas made this story as his reportage project at the school last year.

From the stories a jury will select some winners and of course the main prize: The Freelens Award. Søren Pagter will be in this jury.
