Academy Awards The Academy Awards are the most prominent film award in the United States. The Awards are granted by the Academy of Motin Picture Arts and Sciences. Academy Awards are nicknamed "Oscars", which is also the nickname of the statuette(小雕像). The name is said to have been born when Margaret Herrick saw the statuette on a table and said: It looks just like my uncle Oscar!"
Berlin Film Festival One of the "A" festivals in Europe. The Berlin International Film Festival, also called the "Berlinale", is held annually in February and started 1951 after an initiative of the American, who occupied part of the city after World WarⅡ. The jury(专家评奖团)always placed special emphasis on representing films from all over the world, from the former Eastern Bloc(集团)Countries as well as from western countries. The awards are called Golden and Silver Bears (as the Bear is the symbol of Berlin).
Venice Film Festival The Venice Film Festival takes place every year in late August / early September on the Lido in the historic Palazzo del Cinema, in Venice, Italy, its main award is the " Leone d'Oro" (Golden Lion). Recently, a new award has been added, the San Marco Award for the best film.
Cannes Film Festival The Cannes Film Festival is a famous international film festival. It has been held annually in Cannes, in the south of France, since 1946 with a few exceptions. Given massive media exposure, the Festival is attended by many movie stars and is a popular venue for movie producers to launch their new films and attempt to sell their works to the distributors who come from all over the globe.
The most famous award given out at Cannes is the "Palme d'Or" (Golden Palm) for the best film; this is sometimes shared by multiple films in one year.
Want to explore new cultures, meet new people and do something worthwhile at the same time? You can do all the three with Global Development Association(GDA). Whatever stage of life you're at, wherever you go and whatever project you do in GDA, you'll create positive changes in a poor and remote community(社区).
We work with volunteers of all ages and backgrounds. Most of our volunteers are aged 17-24. Now we need volunteer managers aged 25-75. They are extremely important in the safe and effective running of our programmes. We have such roles as project managers, mountain leaders, and communication officers.
Depending on which role you choose, you could help to increase a community's access to safe drinking water, or help to protect valuable local cultures. You might also design an adventure challenge to train young volunteers.
Not only will you help our young volunteers to develop personally, you'll also learn new skills and increase your cultural awareness. You may have chances to meet new people who'll become your lifelong friends.
This summer we have both 4-week and 7-week programmes:
