Submissions for coco are currently still open: Producers can submit their feature fiction film projects in development for cocoPITCH until 15 July 2020, and projects in production or post-production for cocoWIP until 20 August 2020. The projects must be related to Eastern Europe in subject or production context.
Selected projects will compete for various awards:
The coco Best Pitch Award is selected with vote by our industry audience and includes a cash prize towards development along with a free accreditation to the Marché du Film Producers Network in Cannes.
In collaboration with our partners MIDPOINT, the training platform for script and project development, comes the MIDPOINT Consulting Award, an in-depth script consultancy with MIDPOINT experts for three of our selected projects.
Our partner AVANPOST will offer the Avanpost Proof of Concept Award, which may include financing strategy consulting, the project look-book as well as post-production for a proof of concept.
For our cocoWIP section presenting works in progress, we are happy to team up once again with major German post-production studio D-FACTO MOTION, who will sponsor the D-Facto Motion WIP Award of €35,000 in-kind services plus €5,000 granted for additional expenses.
Producers, sales agents, commissioning editors and other industry representatives active in East- West European co-production can apply without a project by 7 October 2020.
We look forward to receiving your projects!
