About the festival
"Unsolved sounds... had power over me". Igor Severyanin

The idea for the birth of our festival was the long-term reflection that at all famous film festivals, the work of a sound engineer is evaluated in a single category, and we considered it not fair! The work of a sound engineer is multifaceted, multi-faceted and includes a huge number of creative and technical tasks that need to be solved and implemented. Thus, the competition program of our festival was born, which allowed us to evaluate the work of students of sound engineers in different categories.

Our first festival lasted only one day, we gathered in a small cinema hall of the Loft "Floors" on Ligovka and in the presence of a real professional Jury held the Festival "Intonation" – The first Festival of sound engineering works of students of the Department of Sound Engineering of the Faculty of Screen Arts of the Institute of Film and Television!

The organizers, teachers of the Department of Sound Engineering, the jury, students and guests all liked it very much!
For the first time, someone (in addition to the masters), took seriously the work that future sound engineers did, was able to appreciate the nascent creative handwriting and the slightest shades of intonation of the sound scale. There was an opportunity to see the work of their colleagues from other workshops in a much larger number.

For the first time, the children found themselves in a healthy creative and professional competition!

And now, the festival has become an expected annual event in the lives of our students and, as it turned out, not only ours! The program of the festival was attended by students of VGIK, the Kazakh National Academy of Arts, works from Vietnam, Mongolia and France. Moreover, the number of people willing to participate exceeds the physically permissible time of competitive viewing, and the organizing committee of the festival has to conduct a serious selection of films.

During the development of the Intonation festival, it has become a tradition to invite applicants, graduates and colleagues to the Festival with the most interesting master classes.

We sincerely believe that the festival will grow and develop, and will become a worthy "platform" for the exchange of experience, communication and inspiration for creative intonations.

Founders and artistic directors of the festival: Vladimir Persov, Marina Sheinman, Elena Sladkovskaya
