EMERGEANDSEE Yet Another Media Conference Berlin

Shortfilm festival meets media conference
Berlin is the place to be for film and media lovers in February 2008. There will be the transmediale, the Berlinale and EMERGEANDSEE. So three events full of new media, films and discussions. You want to be there as well?

EMERGEANDSEE offers a package price with which you get accommodation, festival pass and some social programme in one for student fares. Just visit our website on http://visit.emergeandsee.org/. But you can only book until the 24th of January 2008.

In 2008 our Yet Another Media Conference will focus on the future of moving image. 10 lectures will show different perspectives on this topic. In our short film competition 30 films from students around the globe present the best selection of shorts from 2007.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Berlin!
