Colours
Mixing, Effect, Symbolism
Colour is something ordinary. But colours determine nature and our life fundamentally. In the animal and plant kingdoms the colourful diversity of nature is not a whim but mostly serves a purpose. Striking colours are often designed to transmit specific signals, either courting or attractant signals, in the animal kingdom and with flowering plants. Colours play an important role also as an aposematic deterrent or as a camouflage from enemies. In nature, colour is often an important and frequently vital factor. Humans have always used colours as a decorative element and for the transmission of information. But where do things in life get their colours from? What actually is colour?

The Daily Newspaper
Every day, there is a surge of news reaching us via different news channels. In spite of TV and Internet, the daily paper still is one of the most important main sources of news. But how is a newspaper created? The film shows the production of a paper in the course of one day. Starting with the editorial meeting in the morning, in which the topics and deadlines are determined, the film accompanies a journalist during her research work. You can see how a journalistic interview is conducted and what the photographer must consider when taking a press photo. Back in the editorial office, the editor’s work is illustrated, which includes the page layout and the writing of an online article in today’s time. Impressive pictures from the printing centre depict the process from the digital page to the finished newspaper. Together with the comprehensive accompanying material, the DVD is perfectly suited for use at school
