Four months since the first session in Athens, our participants had the chance to further develop film project, conduct additional research and improve their trailer while some participants have already started production. Other participant filmmakers and producers presented their projects in pitching sessions around Europe. The second session will be structured as the format in Athens. Participants will have the opportunity to meet competent and committed documentarians who can inspire them and advise on the global documentary market.
The workshop includes inspirational lectures on storytelling, cross-media concepts and the market situation. Broadcasters will present channel profiles, slots for documentaries and outline current policies. STORYDOC staff will organise presentations in forums for participants to present projects and individual meetings with commissioning editors, sales agents and distributors, who might be interested in participants’ films.
