Student of the Media Production – Graphic Design module Lucija Macuh, with the help of the Erasmus+ programme, travelled to Paris, France, more precisely for a work placement at the organisation ECU (European Independent Film Festival), which annually organises a festival dedicated to independent film.
The beginning of October offered student Lucija Macuh a unique opportunity – to work and learn in beautiful Paris, one of the most beautiful cities in the world, where the experience of her several-month work placement at ECU (European Independent Film Festival) began, which will certainly remain in her memory forever.
As a designer, she found herself in a world where art merges with film. As she says, her work at ECU is diverse and dynamic. Designing logos for upcoming festivals, creating brochures, flyers, social media posts, film programmes and designing promotional products and covers – all this has become part of her everyday life. Designing the visual identity of an event that celebrates independent film was an opportunity she gladly accepted at the beginning of this autumn.
"Working at ECU allows me to express my creativity in ways I could hardly imagine before. Creating designs that will mark upcoming festivals is a task I perform with pride."
But her experiences in Paris are not limited to work alone. The city itself is wonderful and full of history and culture. During her free time, she has already had the opportunity to visit various landmarks, such as the Eiffel Tower and Montmartre. Paris has enchanted her with its architecture, art and excellent food. But most of all, she is grateful for the people with whom she shares this experience. The team at ECU comes from different parts of the world and cultures, but they are united by their passion for the world of film. Their diversity is their strength, as they support each other and learn from one another.
"Paris has set the stage for this special period in my life. Working at ECU and exploring the city have combined my passions for design and travel, so this experience will certainly become an important part of my personal growth and career path."
