DEVELOPING AUDIENCES - Audiences in Motion
The European Film Forum is a platform facilitated by the European Commission for a structured dialogue between policy makers and stakeholders in the audio-visual sector. The aim is to develop a strategic policy agenda opening up new perspectives and contributing to changing minds in the European film sector in respect of the challenges and opportunities brought about by the digital revolution.
The main subjects covered by the European Film Forum are the financing and public support to content in the digital era, the changing relation between European films and their audiences and the support to talent and creativity.
The European Film Forum opened in Berlin this year and events to debate these issues have been and are currently organised within the most significant European Film Festivals and industry gatherings (Cannes, Sarajevo, Venice, San Sebastian, MIPCOM, etc.).
Audiences in Motion will deal with the profound changes brought by internet and digital technologies to existingmodels of creation, production, distribution and exhibition, and this powerful revolution is led by the audience, who demand a greatly enhanced active role in the new audiovisual paradigm.
The conference will address, from different points of view, the new part played by the audience in the creation, production, distribution and exhibition of audiovisual contents. Discussion will also revolve around innovative formulas emerging in relation to audience participation in the new audiovisual paradigm, offering a catalogue of new opportunities to share with professionals in the sector.
The conference will be structured around three panels:
- Creative audience
- Production audience
- Distribution / Programming audience
