​EYES & EARS New Talents 2016

The Eyes & Ears New Talents give young talent a platform to showcase their innovative work. Practical, inspiring, and promising, they present their projects to an expert audience as part of the European Conference for Design, Promotion and Marketing. The industry meeting offers them the opportunity to get to know those who are always looking for young creative talent. At the same time, these young talents give long-time media professionals creative ideas for their own work.

The New Talents 2016 are:

"What they believe" – Collected anecdotes full of ambiguous Love & Truth

Shoko Hara, Graduate of the Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg, Ludwigsburg

"WHAT THEY BELIEVE is an essayistic collage about faith and gullibility. The basis is real encounters, since my parents themselves belong to a fundamentalist community and we always have heated discussions about it. The storytelling is carried out associatively through design and graphic visualization, rather than a closing story arc. It is supposed to seem as erratic and seemingly random, as the worldview of its characters."

Kleinstein – Tangible Digital Learning

Andrea Zimmermann, Graduate of the HAWK Design, Hildesheim & Founder Kleinstein

Marco Pumptow, Student at the HAWK Design, Hildesheim

"Nowadays, children come in contact with their digitally connected environment from birth. But some parents are concerned when their child is sitting in front of the phone or table for too long and pays no attention to other toys. We at Kleinstein have taken on the task of combining the digital and the real world. How can digital learning become tangible? By combining a t-shirt and an app we provide fun and tangible learning content."

Rouff – A Magical Adventure

Benjamin Brand, Johannes Engelhardt & Markus Eschrich, Graduates of the TH Nürnberg Georg-Simon-Ohm

"Rouff, the drawn dog, is sad: He only has three legs and he is all alone. When he folds Pete from the sheet of paper on which he was drawn it is not only the beginning of a beautiful friendship but also the meeting of the two worlds of animated films – 2D and 3D. The magical search for the fourth leg leads Rouff and Pete on an adventurous journey that will fascinate children and adults alike."
