Ateliers locaux

EURODOC organise trois ateliers locaux par an, en mars, en juin et en octobre, dans trois pays différents.
Les ateliers locaux offrent une première expérience du programme EURODOC et une initiation à la coproduction internationale.

In parallel with every session of the Annual Program, in the same premises, EURODOC organizes a 5-day-long workshop which welcomes a group of 10-12 producers based in the country hosting the training. Depending on the context, the group may also welcome producers from neighboring regions (Benelux, Mediterranean Islands, etc.). Several masterclasses and case studies are open to the group, and get-together moments are planned everyday to mix the Annual Program cohort and the Local Workshop cohort.

Who can apply?

  • Project-holders:  The producers and filmmakers from the host region/country of the yearly programme sessions are eligible for these one-week intensive workshops.Les producteur·ices et les cinéastes de la région/du pays hôte des sessions annuelles du programme et portant un projet de film en développement sont éligibles à ces ateliers intensifs.
  • Professionals from the documentary industry: Representatives from regional film funds or regional TV channels may attend as observers
