For the fourth year, Yati has had the honour of jurying of the Oticons Faculty international film music competition in 2019. This competition is unique in that students submit music to scripts and briefs of their scenes, and thus the overall professional requirements are much higher than most competitions. Additionally, Oticons gives all finalists feedback to their awards, which enhances value to participants and helps encourage good work and improvement. The jury have announced this year that John Konsalakis (Greece) and Amir Hedayah (Egypt) are to share the Grand Prize. More information here: https://faculty.oticons.com
