Each film team will have several individual encounters with various trainers internationally experienced in the different key areas of filmmaking. Alongside having script consultations, the participants work with experts from the fields of directing, cinematography, sound, editing, but also of production, financing & sales, sustainability and audience engagement. Some of the trainers will be selected according to the particular needs of the projects, following a tailor-made proposal. In parallel to the individual sessions, group sessions with the other participants will nurture the unique experience of sharing the development stage with other filmmakers and producers. The enriching environment that comes as a result of the exchange with other colleagues will help the teams to boost the project development process.
A final presentation of the projects during the TFL Meeting Event in November concludes and completes the training and development process: all participants present their projects publicly to an audience of international producers, sales agents and other film industry professionals, have one-to-one meetings with market guests and are granted visibility thanks to the TFL Catalogue and network of promotion.
Moreover, the projects are assessed by an international and prestigious Jury awarding production grants and the projects also compete for a variety of collateral awards (for further details see the pages dedicated to Funding: Production Awards and Partners' awards).
