Created in collaboration with the TorinoFilmLab and supported by the CNC and the Moulin d’Andé-CÉCI, Next Step is a programme, consisting of a 5-day workshop held in France in December. The aim of this project is to support the short film directors discovered by La Semaine de la Critique as they branch out into feature films. During the workshop, the filmmakers have the opportunity to discuss their projects with international experts and tutors, in order for them to receive advice on their scripts, to understand the reality of the industry and define an appropriate development strategy. Furthermore, a half-day workshop is dedicated to film music to encourage the participating directors to both better understand the work that goes into music composition for films and start thinking about the music for their feature film projects
This year, the directors of Next Step 4th Session are :
