Biennale College

Independent Filmmaker Project

Biennale College – Cinema

Call for Applications

Deadline: October 22nd, 2012

This year the Biennale di Venezia, in partnership with Gucci, launches Biennale College – Cinema, an exciting initiative to support teams of directors and producers to make their first or second micro-budget audio-visual work.

The Call for Applications will be promoted in collaboration with IFP, TorinoFilmLab and Dubai International Film Festival.

The Biennale College – Cinema will be a community of filmmakers, selected from around the world, to work alongside an invited team of international experts and tutors to explore the aesthetics of micro-budget filmmaking and the new integrated models of production, which engage with an audience from the outset.  After a first 10-day workshop in Venice for 15 selected projects in January 2013, up to 3 teams will be invited to a second 15-day workshop between February and March and supported with 150.000€ in order to produce and screen the projects at the 2013 Venice International Film Festival.

Are you up to the challenge?

We are looking for 15 feature-length audio-visual concepts that can be made within 150,000€ and could be completed – developed, produced and edited – within 5 months and screened at the Biennale in 2013!

The Call open from the 30th of August 2012 to the 22nd of October 2012 only to teams of directors at their first or second feature and producers with variable degrees of expertise who must have produced at least 3 short films distributed and/or presented at Festivals.
