At the State Academy of Arts of Turkmenistan European Union cultural week was held in Turkmenistan
From October 17 to October 24, 2022, the videographer "Time of Friendly People" Mr. Samuele Malfatti held a master class on the topic "Video Art" with students studying in various specialties of our university. Samuele gave students a comprehensive introduction to the fine arts of video editing in a masterclass using Davinci Resolve and Adobe Premier Pro. As the saying goes: “What is not old is not new,” Samuele constantly emphasized that students should not forget the old and use it, when appropriate, to create a new idea.
During the seminar, Samuele Malfatti listened to the ideas of the students, they created various videos together and, together with the students, contributed to the art of filming. This led to an increase in the experience of young students in the arts.
In the last days of the training course, Mr. Samuele Malfatti said: - “Dear friends, I am very glad to meet you! Although we are from two different countries, we have come together to create great video art. You all actively participated in this skill training, I was very happy and we did a good job together“.
