… The 3D Film Mart was developed by 3D Stereo MEDIA in association with TWIST and peacefulfish. It is partially funded by the MEDIA Program of the European Commission (EC), and is thus an official project of the EC. This gives it a wide visibility and a significant notoriety in Europe and beyond.
This co-production market works as follows. Producers of 3D contents (for cinema, TV, …) who have projects for S-3D contents (feature, documentary, animation, alternative content, …) at an early stage of development, and are looking for financing (of at most 90 %), are invited to submit their projects to the market. Since the primary goal of the market is to boost the production of quality 3D content and to be educational, the market strongly encourages producers that lack experience in S-3D but are successful in 2D movie making – or in some other form of art – to submit their first S-3D project, thereby using the market as a way to get up to speed in the demanding world of 3D!
… The panel will select the best of these projects and its producer will be eligible to receive an award in the amount of 3,000.00 €.
… 3D Stereo MEDIAevent, in Liège, Belgium, on 7-8 December 2011.
All the information necessary for submitting a project can be found at www.3dstereomedia.eu/filmmart.
The deadline for submission is 1 September 2011.
