Workshops Thursday 3 March
1. Going Glocal. Global companies investing in local audio-visual production. What are motives, drivers and obstacles for global companies to invest in local audio-visual content? To what extent do local markets benefit? Moderator: Ruurd Bierman (director Dutch Cultural Media Fund). Speakers: Mezen Dannawi (NPO), Ann Caluwaerts (Senior Vice President Corporate Affairs and Communications, Telenet), Marc Eychenne (Daily Motion), Barbara Galavan (Screen Producers Ireland and chair of The European Coordination of Independent Producers).
2. International Co-Production. How can international coproduction stimulate both the production of diverse cultural content and the distribution, circulation and promotion of European content? Moderator: Maarten Mulder (Ministry of Education, Culture and Science). Speakers: Ewa Puszczynska (Opus Film), Doreen Boonekamp (Director Dutch Filmfund), Roberto Olla (Executive Director Eurimages).
3. No Boundaries, Storytelling in the Digital Age. Promoting the circulation of European audio-visual content across borders is inherent to the discipline of digital storytelling. Most of the successful digital storytelling projects travel freely over the web without IP restrictions. Projects like Do Not Track, The Last Hijack, and Gaza-Sderot not only offer low threshold new perspectives on social relevant issues like privacy, media wisdom, environment, consumption patterns and political developments but also incorporate new innovative storytelling techniques like virtual reality, game dynamics, interaction and interface design.
Our speakers will show the latest trends, disclose figures on the European Digital Storytelling market, share their insights in innovation and experiment and last but not least will address the policy challenges we have ahead. Moderator: Dimitri Nieuwenhuizen (Visual philosopher in art, design and technology; co-director of LUStlab.). Speakers a.o.: Liz Rosenthal (CEO and founder Power to the Pixel), Alexandre Brachet (CEO Upian) and Margaux Missika (Executive Producer Upian) and Bruno Felix (co-founder Submarine).
4. Travelling Formats and Remakes. Developing and selling concepts that can be remade and adapted for local audiences on an international market. What are the trends? What are the keys to success? And what do European broadcasters and independent producers have to offer on international markets? Moderator: Amy Selwyn. Introduction by Doug Wood (Endemol Shine Group), Speakers a.o.: Iris Boelhouwer (Endemol Shine), Micha van Hoorn (NPO 3 FM) and Anders Tangen (CEO Viafilm).
5. Engaging Audiences Across Borders. This session focusses on the audience. While the audience is now a major part of the industry debate, audience development is still acknowledged as a weakness. Topics: innovative distribution models, windowing, promotion and marketing. Moderator: t.b.a. Speakers a.o.: Peter Dinges (FFA), Michael Gubbins (Sampomedia), Emmanuel Joly (DG Connect).
6. The New Media World. Online video has exploded and from this a new industry has developed, that of the YouTubers and Multichannel networks. What is the relation between TV production companies, MCNs, YouTube and other online platforms and the audience behaviour? What does this development mean for policy makers and regulators? Moderator: Monique van Dusseldorp (Programme Director TEDxAmsterdam), speakers Jan Riemens (Zoomin TV).
