Timisoara-the city of the 13 bridges

April 23rd, 2009

As far as history takes us

The first attestations of bridges in the Timisoara Fortress, date from the XIVth century, when Charles Robert of Anjou built a fort with several bridges. During the Turkish occupation, the fortress was surrounded by walls that had five gates with moving bridges, which locals have burned when they were attacked by Prince Eugen of Savoy.

On a map of the city picturing Begheiului bridges across arms and over marshes from 1716, the longest bridge has 500 hinders. During the Austrian occupation, numerous bridges were raised. They were made by wood, brick or stone.

an excellent day for shooting

April 15th, 2009

With the spring coming, the ISWinT team was all happy and energetic. So what else better to do than shoot some video clips for our summer workshops?!? ;)

We gathered the enthusiastic organizers and some other friends and we proceeded to what was going to be a great day, a new experience, which I must admit, wasn’t easy at all. But we sure had a great time together.

We had our chance to taste the life of acting, being on stage, shooting doubles, laughing, getting annoyed , making something interesting and so on. In the end, we all felt like a big team and we realized that what we’ve done had a good chance of being just great ;))
