Carola Hesse


Additional qualifications / training / work experience

3 months runner for a trick film animation Studio in Kassel, Germany 3 months camera assistant for RTL Studio Kassel (a German TV channel ).
I am in contact with a documentary photographer who moved to India in order to make photo documentaries about India's HIV/AIDS situation. He convinced me to make a documentary film about this subject as well. Therefore I have been planning for the last half a year to go to India, in order to work on a documentary project over there. During my research work I realised how much awareness work still needs to be done in India and that the TV can be a very useful tool in preventing this disease from further spreading
