The Department of Radio, Television and Cinema previously hosted short film directors with students under the titles "Short and Thoughtful", "Short and Funny", "Short and Cheap", "Short and Academic", "Short and Social" and "Short and Technical". The seventh of the "Short and ..." event series that brought together the event took place. Director Erinç Durlanık was the guest at the event titled "Short and Separation". The event, which attracted great attention, was held at Istanbul Gelişim University Pocket Cinema. At the event moderated by Radio, Television and Cinema Department Head Asst. Prof. Dr. Emre Doğan, director Erinç Durlanık told the story of his short film Foreign Lines. Discussing the experimental attitude of Foreign Lines, which is also considered an inter-genre experiment, Dogma 95 influences, script development processes, and shooting techniques, Durlanık explained how he made all the decisions in the process. Durlanık also emphasized the contribution of the POV shooting technique to the narrative language of the film and explained how the choice of placing the camera as a genderless character developed. Stating that he is working on new projects after the award-winning project International Lines, Durlanık also answered the questions of the students. After moderator Asst. Prof. Dr. Emre Doğan emphasized the theme of separation in the film, opinions were shared about how separation is perceived in cinema, literature, and real life. The enjoyable event ended after a question-and-answer session.
We would like to thank Erinç Durlanık for sharing his valuable experiences with us.
