Åke Blomström Masterclass @ PRIX EUROPA 2022

…has come to a successful end!

15 lucky students had been chosen by a selection committee to participate in the Masterclass and had the unique opportunity to learn from the best radio documentary makers in Europe, to glean their secrets and get their advice.

Tim Desmond, Chair of the Åke Blomstrom committee summarising the two successful days at PRIX EUROPA 2022:

‘The 2022 Åke Blomström Masterclass @PRIX EUROPA took place over the weekend at Potsdam. 15 young feature makers from 11 different countries in Europe spent two intensive days training with four PRIX EUROPA winning masters of their craft. Agnieszka Czyżewska Jacquemet (Polski Radio Lublin), Daria Corrias (RAI), Christian Lerch (SWR) and  Daniel Valesco (SR) took the young feature makers through the process of creating and realising their award winning features. The students pitched programme ideas over the weekend for feedback from the masters and lively discussions took place about all aspects of feature making. The Masterclass was declared a great success!‘
