Regional development and audiovisual support

2:00 PM – 3:15 PM | Czech situation and introduction of foreign model - Vestnorsk region

We will open a map of the current state of regional support for audiovisual in the Czech Republic. How do the regions stand and where are new support programmes planned? The Norwegian guests will then present the history of the Film Centre project, which is now an institution that finances local productions and international co-productions, while supporting the growth of local talent and the opportunities for local production companies. Using the example of Aldeles, we will discuss the possibilities of linking film production and destination activities.

Guests: Stine Tveten (director of Vestnorsk filmsenter), Elisabeth Kleppe, Elin Jorunn Sander (producers from Aldeles), Simon Bauer (director of the Documentary Film Centre Jihlava)

Moderator: Přemysl Martinek (Regional Manager at the APA).
