The objective of the Documentary Campus Masterschool (DCM) is to strengthen the creative audiovisual sector in Europe. The DCM workshops focus on developing strong stories that have the potential to reach international audiences and to facilitate the financing of this content with the help of international partners by developing alternative business models to stay sustainable on the market. In order to disseminate the results on a larger scale, the knowledge generated in these workshops is shared with a broader audience of industry professionals in the public Industry Training Sessions (ITS) and Open Training Sessions (OTS) that Documentary Campus (DC) presents in partnership with leading international markets and festivals. Besides the exchange of knowledge, these events offer a variety of all-important networking opportunities to foster new partnerships and collaborations between Masterschool participants, European media professionals and a worldwide network.The DCM program consists of four workshops covering all aspects of nonfiction content production for the international market, i.e. how you develop your story, choose a suitable platform for your content, create a trailer, prepare a budget and financial plan, gain access to the international market, adapt your film to appeal to your/a global audience and meet the needs of different markets/audience groups, work with co-producers, promote and distribute your finished film and develop business models to remain sustainable in the future. The workshops offer a mix of group work sessions, one-on-one meetings and lectures. Through masterclasses and case studies, participants get a look behind the scenes of successful international co-productions or different business models of internationally operating companies. After participants have developed their documentaries, they get the opportunity to present their projects at the Leipzig Networking Days (LND) – Documentary Campus’ renowned pitching forum that brings together over 40 international commissioners, channel heads, representatives of online platforms, distributors and funders.As mentioned above, each DCM workshop is connected to an Industry Training Session or Open Training Session, which could be a one-day summit or a five-day long conference. These public training events, taking place in different European cities, have established themselves in the media scene as important events and networking platforms for exchanging expertise and building international relationships. The impressive number and variety of specialized experts, well-curated discussions, thought-provoking keynotes and in-depth case-studies ensure the high quality of each event and guarantee that Documentary Campus has its finger on the pulse of current trends in the international media sector. |
