DEVELOPING AND PRODUCING DOCUMENTARIES IN EUROPE
Bucharest, 21 & 22nd of March 2009, Czech Centre

28 documentary filmmakers from Romania and Moldova participated to DEVELOPING AND PRODUCING DOCUMENTARIES IN EUROPE. The event took place in 21-22 March 2009, at the Czech Centre in Bucharest, Romania. This training session was organized by DocuMentor (Romania) and „Documentary in Europe“ (Italy), in association with the One World Romania Festival.

How to get development funds and support for your projects? How important are training initiatives? Which are the most important business markets and events that you must know? Networking and raising production funds. What is a pitching forum? Why do you need trailers? All these will be analyzed and discussed with case studies and first hand witnesses.

All these were analyzed and discussed with case studies and first hand witnesses. Tutors: Leena Pasanen - YLE Fact and Culture (Finland), Alexandru Solomon - DocuMentor (Romania), Stefano Tealdi - Documentary in Europe & Stefilm (Italy).

The training session was appealing to all documentary filmmakers and young talents from Central and East Europe and the courses were held in English. The access was free. The success of the training session registered from the first edition made us thinking in perspective. We want to improve our organization for the next edition, from 2010. Hope to see you there.
