Written by: FFT Webmaster | February 8th, 2012
The 10th edition of the Berlinale Talent Campus received applications from nearly 5000 up-and-coming filmmakers from 137 countries. On February 11, 2012, the doors of the Theater Hebbel am Ufer will open for 350 selected participants during the 62nd Berlin International Film Festival. With the theme “Changing Perspectives”, the Talent Campus offers this new generation of filmmakers a prominent program featuring many Berlinale guests and international experts. In addition, these young filmmakers gain practical experience from mentors in the hands-on-training program or may further develop their submitted screenplays in one-on-one meetings with expert script consultants. Producers and directors with completed screenplays are selected for the Talent Project Market and introduce their films to financiers and co-producers as part of the Berlinale Co-Production Market.
