The programme of the Explorer Konferenz #3 is online

How does change work? How do we lose our fear of it? How do we want to produce in the future? The omnipresent change in society is also reflected in film production. What motivates European filmmakers in this process, how do they deal with necessary adjustments and how do they utilise newly emerging opportunities?

During the conference, which will open with a keynote speech by futurologist Christiane Varga under the motto "Changing Systems", German and international speakers will provide insights into their work and strategies and impart future-oriented knowledge. In their contributions, they will shed light on current phenomena and developments in a film industry in a state of upheaval.

The conference is aimed at Executive Producers, financiers, funding institutions, students and anyone interested in the transformation and reconfiguration of the film industry.

The complete conference programme is available on the website: www.explorer-konferenz.de The conference language is English. The duration of the Explorer Konferenz is 13:00 - 19:00. Discounted Happy Bird tickets are available until Friday, 9 September! More information at: www.explorer-konferenz.de
