The second phase of the 24th SIFF NEXT in 2021 will be held in Shanghai this winter. The judging committee will select about 6 trainees' feature film projects to be shortlisted for the second phase of the SIFF NEXT “Development Workshop”. During the second phase, two "Best SIFF NEXT Projects" chosen by the instructors will receive the qualification for the next SIFF PROJECT.
The preparatory work for the second phase of the 24th SIFF NEXT is now in full swing. This activity is only open to projects of feature film scripts from former SIFF NEXT trainees, and the solicitation has been completed. At that time, SIFF NEXT will invite senior film workers as training instructors to provide in-depth exchanges and guidance on script writing, project development, audio-visual design, and other aspects of the selected projects from trainees. There will also be industry observation and cooperation.
We believe that during the second phase of SIFF NEXT, more outstanding young film creators will come to the fore to bring about more creative inspiration and sparks through industry sharing and exchanges.
SIFF NEXT
SIFF NEXT is one of the units dedicated to the incubation of film newcomers at the Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF). Instead of being project-oriented, SIFF NEXT pays more attention to individual emerging film workers by introducing them to the industry, and providing support for them to complete their first and second feature films. It is comprised of two phases, held in June and December respectively each year. The first phase is held during SIFF. The shortlisted trainees will participate in "Training Workshop", film exhibitions, forums, and other major events of SIFF. While gaining the experience at SIFF, they will have the opportunities to communicate with domestic first-line film workers, exploit industry resources, and enrich practical experience to prepare for the development of new projects. The second phase “Development Workshop” will be held in December in the same year. Feature film projects and scripts will be solicitated from the former shortlisted trainees, and about 6 projects will be selected to participate in activities in the second phase. At that time, senior film workers will be invited as mentors. For the shortlisted projects from the trainees, they will provide in-depth guidance on scripts, development and casting, and select 2 winning projects to grant the qualification for the next SIFF PROJECT.
