10 Getting our Courses
On the 7th of February we felt like students again instead of three backpacking ‘Dutchies’. We went to the University for a meeting with Nezih Orhon He showed us all the courses we could possibly apply to. And there’s a lot to choose from! The list below shows my first selection. All of these are courses I’m really interested in.
Photography project course
you can choose your own photography subject here
Documentary Photography
Artisque way of photography
Photojournalism
more technical
Basic Photography
even when you allready know the basics, they advise us to take this course
Basic foundation of Cinema & Television
given by one of the top professors in all of Turkey
Producing and Directing
A very heavy course consisting of 2 parts. The making of a Television Program and the making of a documentary
Cultural diversity and communication
An interesting and fun course, so we’ve heard
Learning Turkish
Practically all Erasmus students will be taking this course. A good way to get to know each other. Quite handy to learn some Turkish as well
Afterwards Nezih took us to lunch and explained some things about Eskisehir and it’s people. There’s this car that sells water on the streets of Eskisehir. It makes a catchy tune to let you know the car has arrived. It is said that once you’ve tasted this water, you don’t want to leave Eskisehir.
Pina, the Slovenian girl walked into the restaurant and notices us. She joined us at lunch and later she showed us a store across the street where you can buy handy things for your house. They literally had everything here for very little money! When we left the store we went home. Pina ran into some friends along the way and we greeted them as well. One of them, Ferdy, used to study Journalism at Anadolu and told us he can help us with some photography courses. He knows the Old Part of Eskisehir very well (apparently there actually IS an Old Part of the city after all!) where you can take fantastic photo’s he said. Once our classes will begin and our assignments have started we’ll give him a call.
On the 16th of February we have another appointment with Nezih Orhon. This time we will be checking our courses with him (what’s possible, and what’s not?) before making our definitive choice.
