Course content
The learner either arranges the work festival internship together with the course supervisor directly or only consults the internship independently in advance. He/she agrees in advance with the supervisor or the responsible person in the organisation on the tasks and activities, so that they correspond to the study profile, as well as on the rules of work safety. The Department of Theatre and Film Studies cooperates with several cultural organisations and festivals and students can take advantage of this cooperation. These include in particular the festivals Divadelní FLora, Divadelní svět Brno, AFO, PAF, Prix Bohemia Radio. The individual workload and the number of students accepted for work placements are usually determined by the organisations themselves at the beginning of the academic year. After the completion of the work placement, the student fills in and sends the evaluation form to the course supervisor, which is available on the department's website (section for students - studies - in Czech).
