The workshops aim to familiarize young producers based in the south: Asia, Africa, Latin America, the Near and Middle East and Central and Eastern Europe with a variety of important tools.
The PRODUIRE AU SUD workshop was created in 2000 in Nantes, in order to support the creation of a network of young producers from Asia, Africa and Latin America and lay the foundations for lasting cooperation between European film professionals and emerging professionals from the South.

WHAT ARE THE AIMS ?

HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The PRODUIRE AU SUD workshop - Nantes, which takes place during the FESTIVAL DES 3 CONTINENTS, is an 8-day training workshops that proposes:

• a production workshop: a 3 days master class with European professionals: introduction to co-production, co-production contracts, fundraising, international sales, specific case studies ;

• a scriptwriting workshop: 2 days of individual analysis and appreciation by scriptwriters and producers familiar with co-productions and international sales issues.

International professionals run the workshops: producers, legal experts, distributors, sales managers, specialized TV channel staff members, and European scriptwriters.

WHEN ?
PRODUIRE AU SUD has become an indispensable tool for young producers and directors from Asia, Africa, Latin America, the Near and Middle East, Central and Eastern-Europe, eager to master the challenges of co-production and international market.

It takes place each year in a one-week seminar at the end of November, during the Festival des 3 Continents in Nantes.

Without any doubt  the PRODUIRE AU SUD workshop is now one of the places in the world where a large contribution to tomorrow's best cinema is taking place.

Each year the hundreds of applications demonstrate the success of the PRODUIRE AU SUD workshop.

LES 3 CONTINENTS has created a quality label and established a group of selected professionals whose common ground is their love for the cinema, commitment to a high standard in film production, and an enthusiasm for creating new synergies in the field.

Co-producing implies adapting to other cultures and other methods. Co-producing often means learning together how to invent a common language.
