Young producers need knowledge and contacts to make a difference in an international film market that is undergoing a major transition. They build up a network; find stories, material and creative talents; and they finance and distribute their projects. To do all that, a producer not only needs a great personal commitment but also a solid financial foundation that suits him/her.
In addition to exploring markets in transition, the further education program also examines individual business models for producers operating internationally. Several guests from all over Europe and abroad transfer their expertise and experience in lectures, discussion rounds, case studies and practical tasks. The small circle of participants contributes to an intensive working atmosphere and enables close interaction with lecturers and colleagues. The offer is aimed at producers who want to produce their films for an international market in the future.

»International Producing« – Producing Now!
Are you a young professional working in film or television who would like to produce movies for an international audience?
Maybe you know how films are made (technically) but not how to get them made (entrepreneurially).
Maybe you’ve noticed that the way films are reaching audiences worldwide these days is undergoing a revolution – and this means that movies have to be financed from international sources using completely new business structures.
