Schedule
During two full days, participants will undergo intensive training with consultant Claudia Rodriguez. The sessions will focus on working on the development of the project: from content and trend research, design, script, production and realization to distribution.
The Afrolatam workshop’s methodology is participatory. Participants are encouraged to share their projects and work together to refine and develop them in all aspects, under the guidance of the mentor.
Pitching Workshop
The last day is focused on the development of the appropriate narrative for the PITCH, so that in the short time of presentation of their projects, the essence and viability of the project can be transmitted to the market players. Personalized consulting: we work in an individual and then group dynamic to adjust the main potentialities of each project.
Public Project Presentation
Each project’s director will give a brief 10-minute presentation after which meetings will be held with commissioning editors.
