The target group of the BDC Workshop is promising Balkan audio-visual professionals.

For observers
Please, download here the application form for observers.
As observers of the workshop, we will invite 5 representatives of civil society organizations, broadcasters and funds strongly connected to the Balkan region. This will allow to enrich the discussion and educate the observers in European film practices, and thus contribute to a new generation of Balkan “funders” having new perspectives for collaboration with the documentary sector. The decision on whom to invite will be based on research of what civil society institutions have been involved in documentary and audio-visual campaigns, or would be interested to get involved in the future. Our aim will be both to select organizations that have been actively involved and can serve as an example of successful collaboration with the documentary sector, as well as organizations that are new to this kind of cooperation and could become a new source of funding for the young Balkan documentarists. Examples can be professionals from the civil society sector, broadcasters strongly related to the Balkans, other fund representatives and alternative financing decision makers (for example, banking institutions or private foundations) which are active and target the region.
