A strong beginning can shape everything that follows. The opening moments of a film dictate the tone, build expectations, and invite the audience into the world you’ve created. First Impressions offers filmmakers the chance to put that crucial first scene to the test. 

In this session, participants screen the opening of their film and receive constructive feedback from an expert panel. Bring your film via Vimeo link or USB and take advantage of this rare opportunity to gather insights before your work heads out into the wider world. 

Organized in collaboration with European Short Film Audience Award  

Experts: 

  • Sofía Ponce de León  (Programmer, Mecal Pro - the Barcelona International Short and Animation Film Festival) 
  • Anne Jagemann (Kurzfilm Agentur Hamburg)
  • Felipe Casanova (Filmmaker)
