The heart of the Film Spring Open Workshop – audiovisual workshops taking place in Krakow – are creative groups in which specific issues are worked on – from scriptwritting to visual effects. Each participant can sign up for a selected group and carry out their own project as well as participate in lectures, hardware workshops and film screenings. Registration will be open in June. The registration fee entitling to participate in the entire program of the ten-day workshop is PLN 400.
However, the the Film Spring Open is not only a short recurring event. We also give you the opportunity to develop your projects under the supervision of experts throughout the year during Online audiovisual courses and Iindividual consultations.
We’re thrilled to announce that the 19th edition of the Film Spring Open Workshops will take place from October 15-24, 2024, in Krakow.
