Developing Your Film Festival is the world’s only development programme for film festivals.
It has been designed and developed to help film festival professionals improve their business skills, develop creative strategies for building their audiences and income, and nurture future collaborations. This unique training course will allow you to:
- Understand how to put your festival on the path to longevity and creativity;
- Find new routes to develop audiences as well as income;
- Exchange ideas and practices with other international film festivals that share your concerns;
- Learn how to connect with partners and collaborators that can take your festival to the next level.
The 2017 edition of the Independent Cinema Office’s Developing Your Film Festival programme was held for the first time at the Edinburgh International Film Festival between 21 June to 2 July, after previously having been held at the Motovun Film Festival in Croatia for six years.
