Call for Entry 2020: Southeast Asian Film Lab
The Southeast Asian Film Lab provides a nurturing and collaborative space for Southeast Asian filmmakers who are embarking on their first feature-length film project. Over the course of seven days, filmmakers will receive personal feedback from the three mentors, and hear from established industry guests as they share their experiences and insights. The programme will end with the filmmakers pitching to a panel of industry experts for the Most Promising Project Prize that will be awarded at the Silver Screen Awards.
Projects that have emerged from the Southeast Asian Film Lab have gone on to thrive in other prestigious workshops and markets such as the Busan International Film Festival’s Asian Project Market, Cannes L’Atelier, Locarno Open Doors, SEAFIC and TorinoFilmLab.
