WHAT IS SCREEN LAB?
Screen Production Lab is a training and mentorship program that focuses on production and distribution of visual documentaries across media platforms.
THE AIM
We are building a global talent network of visual storytellers around our core team. As we are aiming to produce and distribute the best visual narratives, we decided that putting ourselves on the road twice a year and producing labs in different cities around the globe was the most effective way to achieve our goal.
We are starting with London and New York where our long-term partners are based. In the following year we aim to produce another 2 labs in different continents.
THE PROCESS
The Lab program consists of two 5-day face-to-face sessions with a group of production experts, three months apart. Between the labs we offer one-to-one project mentoring. The 1st session is focused on production issues, while the 2nd session is centered on distribution and culminates with a pitching panel in front of experts from film, broadcasting, publishing and art backgrounds. The Lab is designed to meet production, financing and distribution needs of participants’ stories. A program of public events in conjunction with our partners will be scheduled during the Labs.
WHO SHOULD APPLY?
We will select up to 20 participants – professional visual storytellers with a story in development or production stage, who are searching for ways to develop it creatively, financially or are looking for distribution channels.
THE TEAM
The lab is led by award-winning stills and film editors, curators, interactive producers, distributors and programmers.
