FEEDBACK
/ workshop by Francesco Fei
The workshop includes an analysis of the
selected videos. After meeting the authors - who will briefly
illustrate their work - the narrative structure, expressive
elements, and aspects of production of their videos will be
examined. Francesco Fei will contribute, from an artistic
and professional standpoint, to a series of considerations
on film-direction and production, aimed at conveying interesting
and valuable information useful to the authors’ production.
.
The seminar, completely free, is open to the selected filmmakers
who have presented their work for the selection of the First
Festival of Territory-Promotion Video-stories and to other
20 filmmakers who wish to further their knowledge on the subject.
