Template:Infobox annual contests Steinerei is an annual German-language brickfilming festival and competition. It was started by Mathias Mertens who ran it from 2005 to 2010, and has since been run by a different volunteer each year. It is run in official association with BrickBoard. Entrants are required to attend the festival in person.

History

The Steinerei logo introduced in 2008 and used until 2015

The creation of Steinerei was inspired by a thread posted to BrickBoard by Maximilian "Brickfilmer_Mario" Rajczyk on August 30, 2004. He asked if there were any German brickfilming competitions or festivals, which there were not at the time, and this question soon inspired Mathias Mertens. Although he had only been brickfilming for three weeks at his initial time of responding, Mertens had eight years experience organising cultural events and was also well connected in the media. He began making plans for a real-life brickfilming festival to occur in Germany, and by the beginning of 2005 announced that this event would be taking place within the year.

Mertens formally announced "The First German Brickfilm-Festival" on January 10, 2005, and was using the name Steinerei by February. The first Steinerei occurred in May 2005, and Mertens would continue to run the festival annually until 2010.

Steinerei 2005

Steinerei 2005, the first Steinerei, was held on the 28th of May at the Zentrum für Medien und Interaktivität in Gießen. Films were grouped into those running less than 4 minutes and those running over 4 minutes. They were judged by a jury and by the audience in the categories of Best Film and Most Promising Director. The jury consisted of FAZ editor and two-time Adolf-Grimme-Preis winner Michael Althen, University of Leipzig media professor and Telepolis journalist Karin Wehn, and Stern editor Sven Stillich. 13 films were screened, many of which had been previously released. Mertens sought out permission to screen many of the pre-exisiting films, so not all films were director-submitted and not all directors were present in person. Physical prizes for the Audience Choice winners were later presented at Steinerei 2007.

Steinerei 2007

Designed by Sebastian Baller

Steinerei 2007 was again held in association with Literaturbüro Hannover at the Kino im Künstlerhaus in Hannover on May 19. The theme was Geflügelte Worte (literally "Winged Words", similar to "Words of Wisdom"). This was inspired by the Words of Wisdom Contest held on Brickfilms.com, and several films made for this contest were used as examples of the theme. The jury consisted of Zeit Wissen chief editor Christoph Drösser, FAZ editor and BildBlog.de founder Stefan Niggemeier and University of Hildesheim professor Volker Wortmann. 19 films were submitted to the festival, including the festival's first entry from outside a German-speaking country, from Dutch brickfilmer Stefan van Zwam.

Steinerei 2008 was held on the 12th of July in the Audimax of the University of Hildesheim. The theme was Remake, and a variety of different interpretations of this theme were permitted. The jury consisted of University of Film and Television Potsdam-Babelsberg professor Christina Schindler, FOCUS Online editor Michael Stepper, and Die Helden von Bern co-director Florian Plag. 16 films were submitted and around 400 people attended. This was the first Steinerei to include the Brickfilmer Prize, voted on by the entrants.

Another entry, 802.701 by Steffen Troeger and Sandra Abele, was screened but was not eligible for prizes as it was 12:30 long while the contest had a time limit of 6:30. Troeger and Abele had initially thought to submit one half of the film each as separate entries, but this idea was not well received. The organisers liked the film and wished to screen it in full anyway.
