Power to the Pixel’s leading cross-media course returns for a third year: The Pixel Lab will take place in Potsdam (Germany) from 1–7 July 2012, supported among others from TorinoFilmLab and the MEDIA Programme of the European Union.
The Pixel Lab is a unique, project-focused business development course for European film and media professionals, helping producers, storytellers and media professionals develop the skills needed to create, finance and distribute cross-media properties with a focus on future proofing project development, company growth and competitiveness in the international multi-platform marketplace.
Power to the Pixel will select up to 40 producers, storytellers, decision-makers and executives to attend an immersive six-day workshop. Training is led by top business and creative innovators from the cross-media world.
Producers attending the Lab with a cross-media project receive distance mentoring over the summer (July–September) to help take their project to the next level. For the final section of the Lab, project producers will attend a four-day session in London, October 2012, running in tandem with Power to the Pixel’s annual Cross-Media Forum. During this last stage they will receive pitch presentation training, culminating in project presentations to select invited industry guests and an afternoon of business meetings with financiers and potential partners. One producer will be awarded The Pixel Lab Cash Prize, judged on the quality of their final day pitch.
The deadline for applications is 30 March 2012.
