LIM – Less Is More – training action was launched in 2016. Created by Le Groupe Ouest (France) and its Romanian partners (Control N and TIFF), with the support of its founding partners, Flanders Audiovisual Fund (Belgium) and Krakow Festival Film Office (Poland), LIM is European in essence. Its aim is to help filmmakers to fully integrate the cost constraints from the beginning of the script development process to jump into the feature film adventure through the prism of limited budget production.The scheme is open to 1st to 3rd feature film projects as well as to talents coming from virtual arts, theatre, documentary and web video creators. 16 writers or writer-directors and 12 emerging producers are selected each year from all over Europe.Supervised by script consultants and limited budget experts, from march to october, they attend 3 one-week workshops set in villages in 3 different countries of Europe.Prior to the second workshop, a two-day meeting event is organised for participants to meet a wide scope of industry professionals (producers, sales agents, TV and Web commissioners, new digital front-runners) during Transilvania IFF in order to boost project development.Parallel to the main training program, LIM organises “Pre-Writing” workshops for its national partners. On their ground, LIM trains young filmmakers to find their own narrative voices and to enable their international outlook.The training methodology is based on Le Groupe Ouest’s 11 years’ experience. The coaching is both collective and intimate to explore the singularity of each project. Specific tools have been developed to stimulate the creation process.More than just a training program, LIM wants to act as a laboratory exploring new approaches to screenwriting. “Using limitations to create a trigger for more creativity” is the basis of its philosophy. In 2019, LIM has launched the StoryTANK (a European Think Tank), with the idea of generating an applied research booster aiming at contributing to the creation of a European paradigm of fiction storytelling. |
