SHIFT CINEMA!
Social impact campaigns for films becomes an urgent topic to talk about. Film markets demand impact strategies, funds add it to their application and outreach will soon become a surviving tool in the film industry.
By taking as a playground Shift Cinema, an initiative powered by a_BAHN that accompanies filmmakers in creating social impact campaigns for their films, Marion and Paula proposes you a debate on shifting boundaries between cinema, art and activism in cinematic projects with hybrid outreach campaigns. One selected project is analyzed in an interactive dialogue where the public becomes a strategic tool in taking the first steps for creating impact. The deadline to register with you project and get the chance to discuss it during the workshop is Mai, 1st, midnight.
Films have a great potential to become a connecting force that drives social change, get ready to train the audience’s “change-ability” muscle.
