those funds germany is a strong country. we have achieved so much we can do this and if something can do something we must overcome it and. going where it's uncomfortable global news that matters to w. made for mines. i want to welcome to another edition of euro max i'm your host to meghan li the berlin film festival is currently underway so in this vein we have got a movie themed show in store for you today here's a look at what's coming up. the perfect match talented young actress vicky priebus

is getting a rave reviews for her role in phantom thread. perfect sound white hollywood is in the film composers like to work at a recording studio in vienna. the perfect attraction to harry potter towards the warner brothers studio film park in london is well worth the trip. well one thing is clear when you visit the berlin film festival and that is how many young actors are trying to make it in the business but getting discovered is sort of like winning the lottery a lot is left up to chance but an agent always helps simona bear and i knew a dear back from germany are among the most influential agents working right now in the industry the actors they cast for production usually go on to have successful careers while we talk to them about some of the stars they've helped. german active

spending a lot of time in the spotlight one of this year's european shooting starts at the bell and international film festival which was the lead in to competition films. in the isles is the story of a shy supermarket shelf stocker. in the film transit he plays a refugee passing through must say in southern france the cost of actors for the acclaimed german french co-production was put together by bell's casting studio for the love drama in the aisles and the idea back served as casting director neither she nor bear had any doubts about her talent. the real natural sciences an actor not just looks like he's acting. he has an absolutely natural bearing he's such enormous doctor that he touches you from his heart and soul. despite the fact that plan sort of suffers from a congenital cleft lip and resulting list he was discovered as

a film actor in twenty eleven since then he's been regularly sending his latest videos to casting directors which chronicle his professional development. it's incredibly important i can't stress that enough to be seen and appreciated by the casting agents the in britain and germany when you're invited to a film casting work is just beginning. to contact with the directors and the recommendations come through the casting agents before from. one of his biggest roles to date in transit by leading german director. the filmmakers had to mourn a bear take care of his casting since his first cinema theatre in two thousand she's one of the first to see the scripts was that coming productions. museum only b.o.c. when you tells him on a bad story she goes over the script like he detecting camera that shows you where

house is losing energy she points out where the red and the blue areas are equipped with what i can always tell she knows exactly what it all hinges on what with just the wood is off. in twenty sixteen was called to a meeting at the morning bells casting studio that was to decide whether he'd get the part in question had such film chance at. their home in the midst of a christian we don't do any screening tests we just meet the actors but sometimes we have them read from the script to hear if the voice is right for the character and when it's never you're nervous your hands are sweating and you act cool and light up a cigarette and you like the next one with the first eventually you notice that tristan is very painful and he's already emptied an entire cartridge. and then everyone's happy when we finally decide to work with each other either.

but a good lead actor is not enough to make a good film the chemistry within the ensemble has to be right. in transit and polar bear couple the morning bell also has to have a night for how well. the actors work together. no painter would start out with the wrong colors or many directors aren't at all good at working with actors being very good at constructing a world for the actors to act in but if they have the wrong actors you might as well toss the whole thing in the trash out. of thing not only. fun so gaskins underhill are also convincing as the couple in the film in the aisles simona bear had already discovered some of her love for the screen in two thousand and six there comes to a goodbye lenin which proved to be done years bruce breakthrough. and with quentin tarantino's inglourious basterds she forced the deal that would give christoph waltz his first oscar because of this and the time i always thought christoph was great so of course i invited him of close stuff came in and played this character

so wonderfully it was fortunate for everyone especially for the challenge you know to tell because he was afraid he had written the character and no one could play. to follow in the footsteps of stars like his stuff but is the dream of many an aspiring actor. so what do young actors have to do to have a casting agent consider them for hollywood productions. because that's often has a lot to do with empathy sometimes i just open the door see someone and it just leaps out at me or not. because the power of their own personality if you succeed in developing and maintaining it and you can really bring it out that's what interests me is that what appeals to me is when you get someone with a personality standing there who doesn't want to achieve a performance but wants to give something of themselves to the role or let us give in about it as funds is. a beautiful thing.

has made this breakthrough and soon he'll be appearing in another role in the latest motion picture by legendary director terrence malick. well another young star who simona bare helps to get into the film business is vicky critics from luxembourg now she plays alongside daniel day lewis in the oscar nominated film phantom thread this is her first a breakout role in her performance is generating a lot of buzz among the critics we talk to her now about her growing from success. sometimes dreams really do come true that's certainly what happened to actress vicky creeps from luxembourg at thirty four she stars next to three time oscar winner daniel day lewis in paul thomas anderson his recent masterpiece phantom thread. my grandfather would have said

the makino the thoughts of which means something like it's just cinema or foreign female office and i noticed going through it all. i felt like as we said luxemburg it began banging a guy had from his feet again you could say i held on like a crazy person to a stick and stalker. on the bridge is set in london in the one nine hundred fifty s. and you'll do this plays a conservative fashion designer. indulged a dyed in the wool bachelor one day stumbles into his life. you have to know. him he is inspired by her and she discovers a whole new world as a waitress she's accustomed to serving others here she finds courage and strength she can take on her new employer and his difficult times i'm just outbursts the

warmth of their evolving love is created by friction. i have noticed. her around just. you fed them is a father see of and i what i like about this woman is that she's a feminist in a way that's not obvious at first sight. i find that much more interesting it's very complex and layered and it's an in a strength that doesn't need the approval of others. she knows that she's a great woman and that she's emancipated immature to force. her. dear cuff remark the c.e.o.'s and their strength makes her able to handle this man who is very complicated stuff can be overbearing and angry. not only can she stand up to him she also changes them

a bit if not even turning him around completely. just like her character in the film vicky keeps knows what it's like to wish she was somewhere else in green turn small luxembourg the action always seemed to be going on elsewhere here becoming an actress wasn't necessarily the most obvious of career choices. as to say i'm going to be an actress was like saying i'm going to be crazy thread of the first verse of what do you want to do when you grow up crazy oh well good luck then . she left luxembourg to study acting or jurek university of the arts she performed at the renowned juric playhouse and accepted several small roles in international film productions but it was the german film the chambermaid that secured her her breakthrough role to train a shy and lonely woman beginning to discover her inner self to the phone without even a few that maybe means so much to me and it was the first time i had the chance to

express myself as an artist the way i wanted to do the wonderful passages paul thomas then saw this persona i had created and that's the reason why i got to do this movie now. that means it was my work that led to more work not some power structures of knowing the right people. not to demote ken was the system and a professional photographer took these pictures which tell a tale about daydreaming vicky as an astronaut. vickie at the fairground one of vicki favorite german words scenes a lot of this and one about a foreign soft as such a beautiful word but it implies longing and desire as well as the craving for it the moment it's a one. if a way to express this yelling for something that might be out that in some way guys have this is what at the same time you're addicted to the melancholy of always looking elsewhere. to me that's

a little bit like it is for you very tough. sound and acoustics are elements of film that are just as important as the actors and there is a strong collaboration between hollywood and vienna austria when it comes to recording film music and that's because this is where one of the world's most sought after high tech recording studios is located we went there to see firsthand what goes into creating memorable film music. out of a composer denny o'flynn is all is he's come to assess the christus others including stage piano.

as i expected it's wonderful just there's no way to put into words what's special about acoustics for you to work through they don't and it starts it works that's a that's simple. musicians from vienna's finest overstress come to this facility equipped with holland to community to record movie schools danny is sure to make the grade. six of the cultural heritage of piano musical so deep i look forward to recording here with an orchestra as soon as the conditions will permit me to do that i have no question that the musicians are excellent here . danny elfman is one of hollywood's most versatile composes. he's facing film scores for spider-man first images of the film as blank as i can and it's more like what comes into my mind if i could make it totally blank.

this man started the austrian success story one indiana must steinem moved to hollywood in the like nine hundred twenty s. they developed the technology used to record fill the schools including in classics like gone with the wind and casablanca. the next day and it was the beginning of all of it and it was like a revelation this music from beginning to end in the music is telling us the story and the music tells us there's suspense and music tells us there's fear and the music tells us there's romance and from that moment on. music was part of film. insensitivity the old recording studio was brought back to life as included stage by musician and filmmaker how that took money. he acquired the rundown facility once owned by the production company film city vienna it was the first video in the world both specifically for record and film music back in the one nine hundred forty s. good acoustics rejected it it was

a computer. i guess was practically everything that sounds really excellent comes from this time period late nineteenth century and early twentieth century that was when the best holes were built one after that people lost the feel for it a bit because styx and this whole were incredibly well thought out it gives the recordings a clear and on its quality to speak often in kind of. big name composers have taken a liking to the place. jim and compose a handsome a record of the soundtrack to the feature film inferno here. oscar winning french composer alexandre desplat also make use of his time in vienna to record his compositions here with the australia is what about some cornstarch is slowly getting out.

i think it's just a matter of a little bit of time and recognition and i think a lot of that will be when a few scores a few good scores get recorded here and people at home go where was that record in the all that was with the unit with this orchestra then it's that's it people. have to go there and record. it often is already looking forward to returning to the austrian capital to work out the musical traditions of vienna coupled with the glamour of hollywood is a combination that should fill the cinemas. makeup in film is also essential we host see here your max it for at least a one hour in makeup to look like this of for our show so you can imagine how many hours of make up and go into creating special characters on productions like the game of thrones or the hobbit valter adamkus sato is in the business of movie make

up he's worked on the box office hits like the harry potter series and the pirates of the caribbean we caught up with him to see what his latest project is. this hyper realistic world by italian sculptor adamkus soto really gets under your skin. is fascinated by the human body outside and inside. it's a shell that tells a story and there is a soul behind it that's why i'm using it. as a canvas you know like a like a painting but it's a three d. and. it is someone's portrayed many of his stunning works are created here at his studio in padua near venice. pays meticulous attention to every single wrinkle and the texture of his skin he's recreating a lot of his culture is a larger than life but nonetheless still remarkably lifelike. who really

started working on this culture when i when i started working for the film industry you know in life and. to make prosthetic make ups for creatures and monsters for the film industry. it's been over ten years since he started out in the movie and t.v. industry. his first broadcast was a harry potter movie for which he sculpted the goblins working at gringotts wizarding banks. and this mask earned casado italy's most prestigious film award donatello over the years he's worked with a range of big name actors although working on a shoot is generally exhausting and far from glamorous. sometimes you get really tired because you do a very long hours long days and maybe in the middle of the field and he starts to

rain and you have to stay there for all day long you know. creature something and you know and. happens. all the time so when you do. you know crazy make ups. he's previously made out to guy pearce looks decades old or even a similar make over to haley carmichael. he also made this mask of his own face in the distant future in this case not for a movie but for his own extensive portfolio. so i always wanted to do my own business but why it's because. i can only do that it's my my life like what i do i just want to do my own sculptors why you do what you do because it is what i am despite the fact that. plans to focus more on his own artistic

projects in the future we can still look forward to spotting the odd creature made by the italian body sculptor on the big screen. and finally the harry potter film franchise has been one of the greatest success stories in movie history or your brother studios produce a total of eight films over ten years now many of the sets are still in place in london and are a huge draw for tourists and yet another attraction for harry potter fans has opened to the public. there's some hocus pocus going on at hogwarts moguls are writing broomsticks. even non-magical beings can enter the world of the harry potter films on the making of harry potter tour at warner brothers studios near london. here you can encounter the spiders from harry potter and the chamber of secrets and in the forbidden forest exhibit visitors remove harry's frightening

experience. it's pretty spectacular out of despotic up in chains to speak like that so far as the part of the site saying i like this we took the light i made up our eyes it's really impressive i mean the scale of it is bad when you inside it's a little creepy but in a good way that. once the films were completed the forbidden forest was put in storage but now visitors can experience the set for themselves with its huge trees and electronically controlled animals they can even control the weather conditions just like the filmmakers didn't. tour guides explain how the forest was recreated in the studio and how the special effects work. the challenge was to be able to create a real life forest something that looks photo realistic in the confines of us sound

studio i guess so we had all the original crew from the set so we had a cradle production manager a production designer was a pole his own construction manager and was up to them to be able to get all the same techniques all the same materials that they were used to filming as well yes such as you know the trays to be able to get real loads of rope trays and make it look as realistic as it would look in a world far step. visitors get to discover hogwarts just the way harry potter did when he first arrived at the school and the doors to the great hall opened. as many . it's five thousand people come to the warner brothers studios for the harry potter experience each day. so we get absolutely every kind of is the commission we get you know everyone from the biggest hard part of fans in the wilds so you know maybe more casual hard part of fans who i guess big fans of cinema and big fans of films and they want to know i guess how stuff was created and all the behind the scenes secrets so it's really

interesting to talk to a very big variety of people as to kind of what they are interested in i guess to do with films. the hunger to express stands ready to depart on platform nine and three quarters. is then a love potion brewing the studio tour leads visitors down dion gun alley the wizarding shopping street. all the way to number four privet drive where harry lived with the durst lease the tour makers had a wealth of materials at their disposal. to every set every prop ever costing you say is from. the main reason being that as the films went along with put a lot of stuff in archives just in case we would need it later so i guess one of us felt that we'd be able to make a really cool exhibit from these facts i guess. but not everything is just for show visitors are allowed to touch things and try stuff out to one of the highlights is getting a lesson in how to wave

a magic wand. it's an inch chanting experience and not just for kids. it's so. shocking and really stick to and i i feel that time. inside. the movie harry potter ish close to my heart. now insists embarrassing lesson both of being here it's nearly the theme of all the films were part of my childhood i grew up with harry so the time was right to come here and i just had to do it as a. years after the films were made fans are still thrilled to get a look behind the scenes and although it is still strictly off limits to hogwarts students fans can take a walk through the forbidden forest if they dare. now it looks like fun to me art before we sign off for the day we want to let you weigh in on the winner of this week's quiz now we wanted to know from you what your favorite film genre is
