Screen and film industry networking for filmmaking students at BIMM University Berlin’s Molecule Studios
At the start of the month, we opened up our doors to Berlin’s screen and film industry for our first industry networking event. Our first-year filmmakers had the chance to make incredible connections with representatives from film festivals, TV companies, script consultancies, the acting industry and many more in attendance.
For our industry guests, the event was an opportunity to see the professional-standard filmmaking and acting facilities available at Molecule Studios, check out our students’ screen and film projects, and scout out future interns and collaborators.
With the screen and film industry worldwide reporting a lack in skilled workers across roles and sectors, this was the perfect opportunity for students to discover the opportunities available, and for guests to explore the ways they can invest in the talent of tomorrow.
The event was hosted in collaboration with medianet berlinbrandeburg e.V, a network association for the media, creative and digital industries, which BIMM University Berlin is a part of.

The event opened with first-year filmmaking students Aurore Ineza, Daria Kostina and Mila Kreft-Sietnicka (from left to right) welcoming guests, talking about their experience and presenting some of the opportunities they’ve had thus far within the film and TV industries, including interning at the Berlinale.
Director and BIMM University Berlin patron Tim Pope (The Cure, Queen, David Bowie) talked about his experience of working with our filmmaking students.
And then the networking session began!
Industry guests also had the chance to tour our facilities including our film studio (featuring the set from one of the students’ latest short film projects and our infinity cove).
They also got to enjoy seeing a collection of filmmaking projects by our students in our very own screening room, Studio Kino.
It was fantastic to see our filmmaking students get stuck into making valuable industry connections so early in their careers. We can’t wait for the next one!
