A training workshop selecting emerging producers to participate in a tailor-made program focused on career development as creative producers.
It combines group discussions, screenings, individual consultancy meetings and networking opportunities with industry decision makers and festival guests.
The intention is to offer a professional platform to the invited participants to discuss the specificities of the regional and international marketplace through discussions and sharing of information, experiences and practices as mutual inspiration.
The program will take place over three months in two phases: at first, online during the months of June and July, then onsite between the August 7th and 12th 2025, in the framework of Locarno Film Festival and Locarno Pro.
At the end of the onsite program, a Jury will declare the winners of in-kind awards.
The working language for the programs will be English. There is no application fee.
