Submit your film: Cinema Perpetuum Mobile

Thursday, November 24th, 2011

“Cinema Perpetuum mobile” is an international cinema cooperation festival that gathers independent film makers and their groups to work under the theme of the perpetual motion.

The authors are free to artistically interpret the theme and develop their ideas on what the “perpetuum mobile” is.

The project is aimed at cinema cultural diversity and the promotion of independent auteur movies. Festival co-operation aims to cover all countries and continents from Scandinavia to the Cape of Good Hope and from Patagonia to the Aleutian Islands.

“Cinema Perpetuum mobile” is a non-commercial project, so the organizers aspire only to cover their expenses on the festival while the participants whose films are included into a short list, are likely to receive dividends in case the collection of “Perpetuum Mobile” films is shown in cinemas after festival. The participation in our cinema cooperation festival is free. Organizer of the festival is an independent association «Kinaklub.org», with the following principles: cinemania, self-organization, decentralization, mutual aid.

Deadline: December, 1st, 2011.

Online scriptwriting course on Cineuropa.org

Sunday, July 13th, 2008

From July 2008, Cineuropa.org proposes an online scriptwriting course in English, French, Italian and Spanish. The training formula is based on a direct and personalised contact between the participants and the teacher. Participants will therefore be able to read the lessons at their leisure time and communicate privately with the teacher at any moment. Following the first trial lesson, which is available, free of charge, on the website, the course is structured in eight lessons over sixteen weeks. These lessons’ aim is to offer participants the essential theoretical and practical notions in scriptwriting, while highlighting the differences between cinema scriptwriting and other creative forms. The follow up with the tutor and the practical aspects provided by the exercises are at the core of the project. The course fees amount to 465 euros + VAT.
