Call for Applications: Rotterdam Lab 2025
Posted: 7th November 2024
Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland is seeking applications from emerging Irish producers to take part in Rotterdam Lab at the International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR) 2025.
Rotterdam Lab is an annual training workshop for producers at the start of their career, with the aim of offering emerging international professionals the means to build and develop their network. Each year, the Lab hosts more than 70 producers nominated by partners from across the world.
Now approaching its 25th edition, this five-day programme of panel sessions, roundtables, and networking events provides opportunities for participants to refine their producing craft and expand their international network.
Screen Ireland will be offering two emerging Irish producers the opportunity to take part in the Lab from 1st-5th February, with five nights' accommodation, breakfast, participation in the five-day Rotterdam Lab Programme and CineMart accreditation included. Accreditation entitles the participant to attend all screenings and significant events. Candidates should be emerging producers from Ireland who have produced at least one or two short films, and not more than two feature films. Producers who have taken part in the Lab previously are not eligible.
