"SPITEFUL LITTLE CREATURES"  is a student film project from Bauhaus University Weimar, offering a chance to collaborate on a striking short film. Ideal for adding a visually unique piece to your showreel.Language: English (high fluency required, especially for Nour & Tik).Shoot Dates: August 27-31, 2025.Location: Bad Liebenstein/Eisenach area in Thuringia (transport, accommodation, and food provided).Logline:A compassionate deity, Ban, watches over their little garden of heaven - a place of eternal reunion, where souls linger in blissful attachment. But when a wandering Bodhisattva named Bot comes, swearing to assist all souls in reaching enlightenment, Ban's paradise grows empty, forcing her to confront her own ideals on desire, existence, and the illusion of permanence.Synopsis:An old tinker recalls his travels with a wandering Bodhisattva named Bot. They end up at the gates of a small heavenly garden built by the young deity Ban. After the arrival of the Bodhisattva, the residents started seeking advice and wisdom, and were encouraged to free their souls of their ideals about this place and strive for enlightenment, rather than stagnate here. Over time, every single soul left this heaven and Ban found herself alone with the Bhoddisatva. She created a place of eternal peace; What was so wrong with that? Despite Bot's attempts to convince her to let go of all her attachments, they reach an impasse. And on top of that, Bot now finds herself unwilling to let go of her own weakness towards this spiteful little deity.In order to apply, please send  a self-tape of your scene of choice, a headshot and brief acting resume (if available), or alternatively, contact us for a zoom audition.

For a music video as part of a university project at Bauhaus University Weimar, we are looking for a fire station as a filming location. The song "FEUERWEHR" plays humorously with typical fire department clichés and stages them in an ironic way. Scenes are planned in the changing room, sliding down the pole, staged poses for an imaginary fire department calendar, an exaggerated depiction of rolling out the hose and an exuberant fire department party.Our team has extensive experience of filming in a wide variety of locations and is very familiar with the processes involved.Contact: Lukas

Im Rahmen des Projektmoduls „VERGESSEN“, das zum Thema 80 Jahre Kriegsende von Prof. Jörn Hintzer angeboten und betreut wird, realisieren wir einen dokumentarischen Kurzfilm der sich aus zwei Komponenten zusammensetzt. Unsere Protagonistin, Gisela, haben wir bereits in einem Außendreh begleitet. Im zweiten Teil unserer Produktion, inszenieren wir ihre Erinnerungen im Studio vor einem Greenscreen um die Schauspieler*innen in der Postproduktion in ein Modell eines Kleingartens zu setzen.Inhalt: In dem dokumentarischen Kurzfilm geht es um Gisela, eine 80 Jährige Frau aus Leipzig und eine Tanne, die seit 50 Jahren in ihrem Kleingarten wächst. Der Kleingartenverein erlaubt eigentlich nur Gewächse bis zu einer Höhe von 1,80m, doch durch eine Sonderregelung zur Wendezeit durfte die Tanne stehen bleiben. Diese Sonderregelung beinhaltet jedoch die Klausel, dass der Baum mit dem Tod von Gisela gefällt werden muss - selbst wenn der Garten im Besitz der Familie bleibt. Die Fragen, die uns im Verlauf des Filmes unterschwellig begleiten, sind, wie wir uns erinnern, was bleibt, wenn Erinnerungssymbole verschwinden und ob Gisela Angst hat, vergessen zu werden?Ansprechpartnerin: Nina

We are shooting our short film "Translate" on December 11 & 12. The sci-fi horror short is inspired by series such as Black Mirror. In the story, a computer genius tries to connect his comatose partner to a computer with the help of an AI in order to re-establish contact with her. However, he soon realizes that the AI is pursuing its own goals. This is a free project, which is supplied with technology through sponsorship from Sony and Godox. In addition to the movie, behind-the-scenes footage is also being made. As this is a free project, we are unfortunately unable to pay a large fee, but we have budgeted €400 for this. We are also happy to take people with less experience who want to try out the genre with us. The role is also not limited to one gender and was designed to be open. So all genders are welcome to get in touch.
