19th Film Festival
Faculty of Informatics, Masaryk University
The 19th annual Masaryk University Faculty of Informatics Film Festival took place on 19 May 2019 in two parallel venues, the Scala University Cinema and the Faculty of Informatics. This year's festival was completely different from the previous ones in that it was included in the programme of the MUNIFESTO festival, which was organised as part of the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of MU.One of the conditions for participation in the competition section is the inclusion of a reference to Masaryk University in the film.It should be added that the organisers of this event do not come only from the Faculty of Informatics, we can find among them representatives from almost all faculties of the university. The festival is implemented within the framework of the PV113 course, where students work under the guidance of mentors, i.e. those students who have participated in the organization in previous years. The experience is also passed on to them by the teachers and, last but not least, by people from practice. For this year's edition, the students have chosen the seemingly empty theme of "NOTHING". In reality, however, there is a LOT to come.

About festival
The Film Festival of the Faculty of Informatics of Masaryk University is the result of the efforts of MU students who, during two semesters in the courses PV110 Fundamentals of Film Speech and PV113 Production of Audiovisual Works, undergo complete training in practical film production, often without previous experience. In small teams and individually, they go through the entire process of preparing a short film from themes through literary and technical scripts, production, editing, post-production, and master the work of writers, directors, cinematographers, sound engineers, producers, editors, actors and others.
