Following the system of dual diplomas which exist in Europe, LA FEMIS and the FILMAKADEMIE BADEN-WÜRTTEMBERG have created a common continuous training programme, which is validated by both schools.This one-year fulltime programme designed for young European producers and distributors was created with the support of the French and German states, the MEDIA programme and the OFAJ. Since 2007, one session of the course takes place in London in partnership with the National Film and Television School of Beaconsfield.Its main objective is to offer a new generation of future producers and distributors a realistic and concrete view of present strategies in screenwriting, financing, production, distribution, marketing and selling of European cinematic works in Europe, based on cases studies from France, Germany, and the UK. The other objective of this course is to teach participants the development in commun of a commissioned production.The training takes place in France, Germany and England from the beginning of October until the end of August and is divided into 6 sessions: 2 sessions in Ludwigsburg at the Filmakademie of Baden-Württemberg, 2 sessions at La fémis in Paris with an active presence of one week at the Angers and Cannes film festivals, 1 session in London at the NFTS, and 1 session in Berlin during the Berlinale.
