FEST – Training Ground
FEST Training Ground is an educational event where new and upcoming filmmakers and filmstudents from all over the world gather in one week, to attend a deluxe training from workshops to master classes, lectured by some of the industry’s top experts with highly acknowledged achievements.
The program approaches the key issues on film making, all from Script Writing, analysis of a specific style, technical disciplines such as sound editing, to theory and analysis of our current society. It is intended to be wide in activities so every participant can tailor make his/her experience according to his/her preferences.
When and where?
The event will take place between the 27th of June and the 2nd of July 2011 in Espinho, a tourism orientated city and one of the summer hotspots of Portugal, 15 minutes south of Porto in the seacoast line.
All activities will be in Centro Multimeios de Espinho, a modern infrastructural and high quality building with screen IMAX, planetarium, café, computer room and wireless Internet.
Concept
We are confident that the program will be very interesting for all participants and the methodology behind the project will be a great advantage.
The program is designed in a way to allow each participant to tailor make their own individual program, according to interests and priorities to make it a more personal experience. In addition to the official program and parallel activities there will also be Gala Dinners, where participants and guests will share the same dining area.
Language
All sessions of the Training Ground will be in English for practical reasons. The majority of the lectures and participants are from various countries, so the communication has to be in one common language.
