Natasa Burger is an actress and a teacher of film and theatre acting. She graduated from DAMU, Prague, and has so far created a variety of interesting and convincing characters - from the awarded Marina in the famous Idle Running by Janez Burger to her roles in Nathalie!, Tiigra and Ruins; from the witty Madam Margaret in the tragic comedy with the same name, to her many other roles in theatre.

The purpose of the workshop is to present the basics of film acting. The emphasis will be on relaxation, self-searching and on learning to communicate with yourself and your acting partner. Natasa Burger's method is based on individual approach, through which she helps each student find and express their own creativity in their own way.

Documentary Workshop

How to come from an idea for a documentary to its realization? We will set on a path through the city with a camera in hand and find out how we observe, what we actually see, what to capture and how to edit. How many different films can we make? And, what do we want to say?

The workshop will be given by Maja Weiss, a film-directing graduate from the Academy for Theatre, Radio, Film and Television and author of several excellent documentaries and films. Her documentary The Road of Brotherhood and Unity received the award for the best documentary at the 2nd Slovenian Film Festival in Portoroz, as well as several other awards.

RTV Slovenia Reprises for Elementary School Students

Pepi Knows Everything is a series of new programmes by the children's and youth programme, familiarizing children under the age of 8 with various fields of art (theatre, music, painting, dance...). The omniscient Pepi, the host of the programme, tries to familiarize his little nephew Miha with the secrets of art as much as possible. However, no one really knows everything, therefore, Pepi more or less appears silly. To avoid complete chaos, an expert from a different field rescues each show. This funny and witty programme features the excellent Janez Skof as Pepi and Dejan Vunjak as Miha. The author of the programme is Jelka Ribaric - Grabljevec, the director is Tugo Stiglic.
