6Bachelor's Thesis
12The two bachelor theses from the "Film and Motion Design " programme at SRH University, School of Arts, Information and Media, deal with psychological challenges in the modern media and living environment. The bachelor's thesis "Burnout by Likes" examines the growing pressure on independent videographers and content creators from social media, in particular from algorithmic expectations and the constant pressure to produce content. Based on the scientific analysis, the fictional short film short film You Are Not Good Enoughwhich satirically shows how social media pressure can lead to creative exhaustion and mental health issues.
The second work, "Somewhere Between Comedy and Collapse: Coping Mechanisms in Grief", explores how people deal with grief and which psychological strategies, such as denial, humour or rituals, play a role. After a theoretical examination of grief, fear of death and their representation on film, the findings were translated into the animated short film Through the Porcelain. short film Through the Porcelain was realised. The five-minute 3D animation, created entirely in Blender, combines black humour with emotional moments and addresses the fragile balance between humour and emotional breakdown when dealing with loss.
Berlin has always been a city for bold ideas, new perspectives and creative freedom. It attracts filmmakers from across Europe and around the world: artists, storytellers and collaborators who come here to experiment, to challenge conventions and to find their own cinematic voice.
Within our international Bachelor’s and Master’s Film programs, stories take shape through Directing, Screenwriting, Dramaturgy and Film Production. Ideas move from the classroom into rehearsal spaces, onto the streets, behind the camera and into the edit, developed in close collaboration with actors and guided by lecturers and filmmakers from an international creative network.
The result is diverse, contemporary and unmistakably shaped by the spirit of Berlin: visually strong, personal, fearless and alive.
This seven-minute selection offers a glimpse into the worlds our students filmic works: a vibrant mix of voices, styles and perspectives emerging from the city and onto the screen.
