From a practical point of view, the directing student goes to a host school during 20 days for an initial survey of the location, the host school proposes him/her 5 different subjects for his/her documentary, the directing student is free to choose one of these 5 subjects or to find another one.

The directing student goes back to his/her own school to work on his/her screenplay. He/she then returns to the host school where he/she will make the film with an IAD/BFM/NATFA triangular team and will further work on the editing and mixing with students from the host school too. This second phase will last 36 days.

As the audiovisual sector and the coproductions are playing an increasingly important role on the cultural scene, in our everyday life and in the economic sphere, it is crucial for audiovisual school students to open themselves to the outside world and learn to work with European teams.

The purpose of the project is also to help promote cultural diversity and to contribute to the emergence of networks between the future audiovisual professionals in Europe. Getting to know each other, learning to work together, giving young European audiovisual students (directors, directors of photography and cameramen, sound engineers and production managers) the opportunity to get a taste of what is done in another EU Member State.
