In our view, these specific insights are the most relevant in the context of an already abundant professional bibliography. Based on our experience in education, we also believe that information presented out of context and in a generalized form tends to fade quickly from memory, whereas information delivered as a solution to a specific problem is more likely to stick. Knowledge framed as a solution to a specific problem resonates more deeply with readers. This is another reason we present professional challenges as stories – difficulties and obstacles as conflicts or turning points, reflections on potential solutions as the story’s development, and the final chosen solution as the resolution. This narrative approach not only enriches the content but also makes it more engaging and memorable for readers. Our book is divided into three main chapters. The first chapter, led by the Association of Hungarian Filmmakers from Transylvania (Romania), explores the filmmaking process, addressing both artistic and technical aspects through a combination of general concepts and specific examples drawn from our experiences. The second chapter, guided by the Association MiMo (France), focuses on the process of composing film music, offering insights into creative and practical approaches. The third chapter, developed by the Ördögkatlan Festival Association (Hungary), examines how cultural festivals – such as Ördögkatlan and Mediawave – serve not only as platforms for reaching wider audiences but also as creative hubs that inspire collaboration and innovation among artists. Some people learn from their own mistakes, while others learn from the mistakes of others. Given the unique nature of our experiences, we often had to rely on trial and error, learning valuable lessons along the way. In this book, we share our problem-solving approaches and insights so that readers can benefit from our journey. We hope that our storytelling approach makes these lessons more engaging and easier to understand. Wishing you an enjoyable journey through our adventure! 6
