De Filmacademie kan tevreden zijn. De twee jury’s die op het Nederlands Filmfestival maandagavond de drie studentenprijzen uitreikten hadden ook naar eindexamenwerk van andere Nederlandse academies met een filmsectie gekeken. Maar uiteindelijk waren alle gelukkigen studenten van de Nederlandse Film en Televisie Academie, zoals de Amsterdamse opleiding voluit heet.

What could be the matter with the Rotterdam Philharmonic Gergiev Festival - the official name to emphasise its international appeal anyway? As soon as you enter concert hall de Doelen, you immediately get the feeling that you have arrived at an ordinary, weekday concert, even though Valeri Gergiev is on the posters. No decoration of the large rooms...
Volgend jaar zal het Nederlands Film Festival het hoofd moeten bieden aan omvangrijke bezuinigingen.

No festival without a debate, and on Sunday 22 April it was. In English and led by Dodo reporter Daniel Bertina, it was about festival themes and marketing, and audiences. We have listed some highlights for you.
Hein Janssen (Volkskrant) wrote a column in response to a couple of performances with BN stars in the subsidised circuit in which he argued that subsidy was not meant for that. The association for actors thought this was reason enough for a debate. We made a short film to go with it. We formatted it in storify, a feature that allows you to put tweets and other social media messages together and...

In China gaat de groei vooral naar puissant rijke ondernemers, en kopen de rijker geworden burgers massaal…
Festival Grenswerk was told on Tuesday 21 February that it must stop after three successful years because it does not match the ambitions of Stichting Enschede Promotie. The festival set up in 2009 was given a thick set of demands by the alderman that it could not meet after a scathing report by this revamped VVV.
This week, the National Travel Opera begins rehearsals of Mozart's Le nozze di figaro. In the bin, the brand-new Netherlands Symphony Orchestra conducted by Jan Willem de Vriend. Business as usual, as the two companies have been working closely together for years and are united in the National Music Quarter Enschede. Only: orchestra and opera company have not been talking to each other since last week.
Voor sommigen leken sociale media dé oplossing voor de manier waarop bedrijven hun waar aan de man kunnen brengen. Je verkoopt iets aan één persoon, en die persoon vertelt zijn goede ervaringen door in zijn of haar sociale netwerk. Zo zou je met relatief weinig inspanning veel mensen kunnen beïnvloeden. Niet dus. Vriendennetwerken op facebook zijn nauwelijks geïnteresseerd elkaars smaak.…
While 2010 was still the year of PVV positions on culture that were suddenly shared by other parties ("we are abolishing art subsidies"), the year 2011 fell under their implementation. What was striking was the ease with which regional and local administrators also wielded this same machete, as PVV spokesperson Bosma did not fail to testify. For instance, in the municipality of Almelo, 30 % went àff from...
There will definitely be no investigation into a corporatisation of the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven. According to the proposal, a council majority wants to have the opportunities to earn more money and save on expenses investigated. A political party earlier suggested that many more visitors and revenue could be brought in with a less elitist programme. At the Money Museum in Utrecht
That frightens us quite a bit ourselves. We knew that the Cultural Press Agency was doing quite well, but we didn't really think a reach of more than 100,000 people was possible. After all, we had done nothing in the way of marketing. Just posting content and not giving away free tickets. And only once something with a bare female breast in it. Enfin....
Positive news to start with: in The Hague, the municipality is doubling photographer/filmmaker Anton Corbijn's contribution to his youth culture fund Haagse Bluf by €75,000. Corbijn explicitly instructed the fund not to interfere in the subsidised cultural sector. So compensation for the cuts need not be expected. In Arnhem, the alderman is satisfied with the...

Foto: Erik van 't Hof Regen, regen, regen. Dat ziet er slecht uit voor de festivals. Toch? “Het weer is minder van invloed op een festival dan men denkt”, zegt Mark Hospers van Noorderzon. En zij kunnen het weten. Vorig jaar hebben ze veel regen gehad, en tegelijkertijd een recordaantal kaarten verkocht. Hoe kan het dat het slechte weer de…
Sponsorship repels audiences. That could be a conclusion of the research carried out at Oerol by Inholland's Media, Culture and Citizenship and Media and Entertainment lectorates. With the central question "How can Oerol survive without government funding?", they are exploring the audience's reaction to commercial expressions.

Interesting things are happening these days. The digital revolution is beginning to have traces of a real revolution. No one has yet set themselves on fire, as in Tunisia, but more and more people are taking to the virtual streets to overthrow the old powers: after the record companies, which let themselves be overwhelmed by people downloading, and the newspapers, which let themselves be overwhelmed by people searching freely for information, it now seems to be the turn of book publishers.
