DIGITAL PRODUCTION CHALLENGE II 2016 How to be digital friendly, play with these on-going developments and benefit from new opportunities? Digital Production Challenge II (DPC II) 2016 gathered close to 30 professionals in Lisbon (Portugal) on November 30 – December 3, 2016. The delegation consisted in: – 15 participants from 8 different countries – among them not only producers, production managers but also post-production supervisors, directors and cinematographers; – 14 European experts/tutors/speakers (8 different nationalities), ranging from producers to DoPs who not only offered some precise technical presentations but also generously shared their own professional experience, very “hands on”, and also discussed projects brought by 1/3 of the participants in order to compare and analyse some workflow principles in “real life”. This 8th edition of DPC II was offered and organised by FOCAL resource (the Netherlands) with the support of FOCAL (Switzerland) and Creative Europe – MEDIA Sub-Programme. This 3,5-day workshop gives the methods and tools to: – Be acquainted with the main workflows available on the market – Best position the production of their feature or documentary films, their videos on the top (OTT) within the digital workflow – Grasp the means of communication and tasks division between the partners involved, from the director to the postproduction provider – Understand the importance of digital archiving, the advantages and disadvantages of digital distribution and get ready for new opportunities. The 2016 edition of DPC II consisted in a balanced mix of: – Technical focuses explaining the basics and main differences of the most used production and post-production workflows in Europe while providing a set of tools to professionals that can be used on any future film/documentary/cross media projects. – Case studies on recently completed films (from the low budget, web episodes of “Positive Sinking” by Thomas Heinemann or arthouse films under 1m€ with high production value like “Cartas da Guerra” by Ivo M. Ferreira from Portugal or “Jesus” by Fernando Guzzoni to a 6.5m€ period filmsuch as “The King’s Choice” by Erik Poppe from Norway, concretely illustrating key challenges production and post-production professionals often have to deal with and offering cost-effective and creatively inspiring solutions. – presentations and interactive discussions on key topics such as the digital innovative distribution trends. – Discussions on 4 projects brought by participants, thus used as working material to address priority issues and challenges these teams were facing. 3 were fictions (offering a diversity from a children film, a comedy to a fantastic type of film), 1 was a documentary/animation film, with budgets ranging from 20’000€ to over 3m€.
