The Capalbio | Future Storyteller Lab is a three-step program with daily writing sessions, panels and Q&A about new technologies and mentorship :
- The writing workshop will help the filmmakers focus on their structure and storytelling skills before their first draft. The workshop is organized in collaboration with Sources 2, a Dutch foundation working from Berlin and Amsterdam, which has been following cinematographic authors throughout Europe for 24 years.
- The panels will provide insight and case-studies about Video Games, Video Mapping, Innovative Documentaries and Virtual Reality to open their mind about new means of creation.
- The daily mentorship sessions with Colin Trevorrow will provide a special time with our guest of honour to share experiences and advice in this famously informal manner that is the trademark of Capalbio.
One of the attending projects will be chosen to attend MIA, the International Audiovisual Market of the Rome Film Festival, providing the opportunity to meet new partners and obtain a siginificant boost on the international market.
