A professional script- and project-development program for creative teams and aspiring script consultants who believe in the importance of teamwork. Participating projects are divided into 3 groups of 3, and development within each group is overseen by both a group leader and a script-consultant trainee. To ensure the most comprehensive approach to training, Feature Launch works with established and respected names from all over the European industry.
The Producer Mentor oversees the development of all projects, advises them during the process regarding production and budgetary issues, and guides them through the European industry landscape. The Group Leaders oversee the development of projects in their group from the very beginning of the program through graduation.
They also coach the script-consultant trainee assigned to their group. The Script-consultant Trainee Mentor co-creates the training for the script-consultant trainees, ensuring that this training is implemented organically into the group work and that the collaborative set-up simulates a real-life industry environment.
He meets regularly with the trainees, providing feedback and support. The Pitching Tutor prepares participants to present themselves and their projects, in general and for the final pitching session of the program. Katarina Tomkova ensures each team develops effective promotional materials and positions their project in an international context.
These established professionals are usually present at at least one of the workshops to share their expertise. Juliane Schulze leads the follow-up workshop for producer participants, mentoring them in company sustainability and strategic business planning.
