The 16th Chinese Youth Film Week "Falcon Project" Project Venture Capital recently held the annual shortlisted project roadshow, and for the first time held it online.
The heads of the 18 annual shortlisted projects made statements in turn, and director Tian Zhuangzhuang served as an artistic consultant, and after listening carefully to the project presentation, he had in-depth exchanges with each project person.
In the end, the organizing committee will discuss with director Tian Zhuangzhuang to select the annual promotion project and provide a total of 500,000 yuan of sample shooting funds to help each project complete the 3 to 5 minutes of sample shooting.
With the end of the annual finalist project roadshow of this year's "Falcon Project", the final judging panel was also announced, with chen Sicheng, Hui Yinghong and Zhang Ji three senior filmmakers serving as the final judging panel.
Roadshow gathered online: 18 potential projects are beginning to emerge
This year's "Falcon Project" specially invited Tian Zhuangzhuang as an art consultant. Tian Zhuangzhuang is one of the representative figures of the fifth generation of Chinese directors, and is also a professor of the directing department of the Beijing Film Academy, and his films have won several international film festival awards and are appreciated by filmmakers at home and abroad.
In his dialogue with young filmmakers, he reflects his broad, tolerant, compassionate and loving heart everywhere, but in his gentle words, he loses the rigorous attitude, professionalism and demeanor of artistic creation, which is worth learning from every young filmmaker.
In order to lose any high-quality project, Tian Zhuangzhuang revived 3 high-market value projects, and finally a total of 18 projects entered the roadshow link.
Although the roadshow was held in an online form, the distance of the space could not block the dream of light and shadow, and the potential projects gathered online, and the young filmmakers preached one after another: In addition to the elaborate project book, many projects have specially prepared reference films in order to convey the temperament of the film more accurately, whether it is concept or image, which fully demonstrates the uniqueness of the project.
Looking back at this roadshow, the top 18 projects have begun to emerge, many of which have potential projects with artistic value and market value.
From the perspective of selected topics, it includes urban themes, ethnic minority anecdotes, and adapted news events. In terms of content, there is the struggle between women's fate and the environment, the combination of science fiction and love, the collision of drug experiments and ethics...
From the roadshow of the annual shortlisted projects, it is enough to glimpse that the "Falcon Project" with a global vision is showing the fresh vitality of Chinese films and the fierce power of cutting-edge directors.
