T14 - The Sound of War: Capturing Sounds in Conflict Zones
Presenter:Ana Monte, DELTA Soundworks - Germany
In field recording, preparation is key—but when preparing to record in a war zone, where do you even start? Ana Monte shares her experiences working on Picturing War, a Film Academy Baden-Wüttemberg student documentary directed by Konstantin Flemig.
She and the production team follow journalist and photographer Benjamin Hiller as he captures images of a YPJ all-female fighter unit, a refugee camp in Erbil, the Murambi Genocide Memorial in Rwanda, and Kurdish soldiers fighting in Northern Iraq.
