Rewind: The tmt33 Aftermovie
Ein unverzichtbarer Teil der Tonmeistertagung ist seit vielen Jahren unser Aftermovie. Produziert wird er mit viel Aufwand, Vorplanung, guten Ideen und noch mehr Engagement von einem Team aus Studierenden der HTWK Leipzig. Übrigens: Diesmal haben sie nicht nur den Aftermovie, sondern auch unsere tmt33-Dailys produziert. Einen herzlichen Dank an die Film-Crew rund um Tino Reiher: Valentin Debus, Luise Grosser, Benjamin Hesse und Arnd Caspar Hering! Viel Spaß beim Ansehen!
