ABI experience in Berlin

Hello!! I am Giovanni. After earning a bachelor degree in Engineering of Cinema and Media Communication at the Politecnico of Turin, I decided to have an abroad experience. I wanted to start an internship in the entertainment field and thanks to the ArtBound Initiative I had the possibility to do it in Berlin. So, in the Fall of 2024, I worked for a company called Film Base Berlin. It was one of the most incredible experiences in my life for different reasons. Thanks to the internship, I had the opportunity to work on a big movie set for the first time and it was really like a dream. After the ending of the shooting of the movie, I worked in the office of the company for the rest of my Internship. I had various tasks. My boss was starting the pre-production of a series. This part of the internship was really interesting because I learned how producers manage budgets for movies and series and how a project like this becomes reality starting from the concept.
As I said before, all this happened in Berlin and the only thing that I can say about this city is that it has helped me to enjoy what I was doing even more. The people I met, strangers at the beginning and friends now, created a perfect environment to live in the city in the best way possible. I’m going to leave Berlin with a lot of memories and with the awareness of being changed.
