In 1990 studio was settled in Klaipeda. These days it was just a small film company, wich was making documentary and acting films. In 1996 this small film company spreaded into amateurish film studio "Febas". From these days students make all kind of films: documentary, cartoon, experimental films, etc. Chief of cartoon group Vida Karloviene helps students with imagination and painting.

All pupils and students can be members of this studio. Here they are able to learn how to make films, fotos, cartoons, commics,how to publish a newspaper, etc.

CARTOON GROUP

This group makes cartoons. Earlier all cartoons were made in traditional way using film camera and film. But it's very old and of poor quality way, therefore today we work with computers and new cameras. It's one reason why our cartoons win in various festivals.

Cartoons are devided into three groups: painted puppet,puppet.

Everyone can choose the way he likes.

Why are caroons so special? Here you can show your imagination, to create people, animals, plants, things... You are free to do everything you want.

If you want to make cartoons you need a lot of pation, time, carefulness, but after all...

FOTO GROUP

Here everyone can learn how to make fotos. A lot of atention are held to black-white fotograph. In foto laboratory there are all equipments for making every kind of fotos. Next to foto laboratory there is foto studio. This studio has very good stage for still-life and portrait. In this studio there is an oportunity to make foto reproductions. Foto reproduction is one of ways how to save old fotos.

Today foto group also can't live without computers. Computer helps to students to copy they fotos, to edit them, to mount and using e-mail to send to they friends.

Everyone are absolutely free. He can work with people, nature, architecture, etc. But always there are people who are not interested in this kind of fotography, so we have a sugestion: foto commics.

FOTO COMMICS. This kind of foto has much more rush. Here fotographer can make various situations, to direct them and to foto them. After these lively work starts work in studio: glueing, dialog writing, etc.

We have our own newspaper "After Classes".Joung journalists make fotos, write articles, edit them with computer and do everything what do real journalists.

CINEMA GROUP

This group is the main body of amateurish film stidio "Febas".

Not long time ago members of this group worked with old film cameras, therefore they need a lot of pation to work in laboratory (to develop, to moun everything).

Today this way of working is history, because of new cameras and computers. Compuer helps with sound recording, mounting works, etc. It makes work more esier and higher quality (efects, synchronization, the balance of colors, etc.), also it saves a lot of our expensive time.

Students work with all kinds of films. They like to make commedies, but we can't proud of the list with documentary films.

Why are an amateurish films so especial ?
