Good marks for "Die Skilehrer" television series
The documentary series «SRF bi de Lüt – Die Skilehrer» has received high marks from the SRG Bern Freiburg Wallis Programming Committee. The series, set in Grindelwald, provided an interesting and authentic look at the profession of a ski instructor today.
The series, which was broadcast on SRF 1 on three Friday evenings in February, showed beautiful and authentic pictures and enriched them with a lot of good and interesting information. The series succeeded in conveying a new image of the ski instructor and in doing away with old clichés. The topic was chosen according to the season and the problems of the fast pace of the profession were also addressed. The series provided good insights into today's methodology. The members of the program commission criticized the fact that relatively great emphasis was placed on après-ski and that the abundant consumption of alcohol was also documented.
The people responsible for the documentary series Danielle Giuliani (editorial director) and Hansjörg Niklaus (producer) explained the concept of the broadcast series and answered numerous questions about planning, filming and production. The series, which was broadcast during the Sotchi Olympics, was seen by an average of 550,000 viewers, which exceeded the expectations of those responsible.
