European training for creative producers
Thu, 2 Jul 2009
We’re delighted to announce a unique and exciting opportunity for 5 new Creative Producers currently working in the UK to attend a series of 4 International Script Development Labs over the coming year. We’ve partnered with the International Film Festivals in Sarajevo, Istanbul and Tel Aviv, along with the British Council here in the UK, to run 4 Script Development and Editing Labs, one in each of the partner territories. Each partner (UK, Israel, Turkey, Bosnia & Herzegovina) is now recruiting just 5 participants who will be invited to attend all four workshops.
As well as delivering inspiring and informative training sessions this unique programme aims to ensure the creation of long-term working partnerships between a new generation of filmmakers and better understanding of the local production sector in each territory.
The single most important reason why films and television dramas fail to achieve any significant domestic or international audience (or screenplays are rejected in the first place) is that the script is not good enough. So the single most important question to address in every film and television industry is how do we make scripts better?
We are looking for new creative producers working in the UK, who have made at least one short film, and are passionate about building a career in the international film industry.
