	Audio Production for AV Media
	16 & 17 July 2009 at CREATION CLUB in Unterföhring "Sound constitutes 50 percent of a film, sometimes even 100 percent," says film director David Lynch. Still, what is behind aural design and production in the audio-visual field? Which technical instruments and creative options are used to produce today's audio tracks? What do you have to take into account during the conception of audio design? Good audio-visual productions captivate the audience not only with their imagery but also with a sophisticated mix of music, sounds and language. Because the overall effect of the audio-visual experience is more than the pure addition of image and sound. The whole is more than the sum of its parts. This two-day event organized by Eyes & Ears of Europe and the CREATION CLUB offers an overview of the basics of hearing, the technique of audio design and the historical and conceptual sound design of audio-visual media with numerous audiovisual examples. This event is aimed primarily at employees of media and communication companies, (post) production firms, design studios, consultancies, marketing, advertising and dialogue agencies who want to learn more about this topic. Students and trainees are also very welcome. Please note that the number of participants is limited to a maximum number of 20. The presentations will all be held in German. Registration deadline: 10 July 2009 Any questions? Just give us a call: +49 (221) 60 60 57 10
