This program is aimed at filmmakers who are seeking to achieve the final cut of their fiction or documentary work, defining the authorial vision and point of view, which will allow them to begin the post-production stage of the project. It is essential that the project includes the presence of the editor.
During the BioBioCine Meetings, the methodology is tailored to the specific needs of each project, with guidance from mentors with recognized international experience. The work will be conducted through daily individual sessions in a virtual editing room. Participants will also have the opportunity to present a 3-minute pitch to industry guests. Up to 4 projects will be selected.
