The On & For Case Study is a public seminar that unpacks the process of filmmaking, starting with an idea that travels from a sketch or scribble in a notepad to on the screen. The Case Study develops as a horizontal conversation in which the speakers and the audience get a chance to share concerns, strategies and knowledge of available and lacking means when it comes to making a film happen. The project coordinator, Rebecca Jane Arthur, introduces the project and speakers.
Here you find a video report of the Case Study, made by Artur Castro Freire.
On & For Production and Distribution is initiated by Auguste Orts (BE) in collaboration with Kaunas International Film Festival (LT), LUX/LUX Scotland (UK), and Nordland Kunst -og Filmskole (NO). With the support of the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union.
