Kids Kino Lab is looking for projects for the next edition

Kids Kino Lab is an international script development programme dedicated to scriptwriters and producers who are interested in developing films or series (live-action, animation or documentary) for kids and youth.

During nine months, 12 teams (producer + scriptwriter) work on their projects from a short synopsis to the advanced draft of the script together with production basics (estimated budget, financing and promotion plan). The programme of the Kids Kino Lab is enriched with sessions where invited guests and experts from the fields of scriptwriting, distribution, sales and many others, share their experience and knowledge.

7th edition of Kids Kino Lab consists of four on-site group sessions and online consultations with the lead Tutors.

Each session of the workshops takes place during a film festival for children or an industry event.

The programme ends with a pitching held at Kids Kino Industry forum which gives participants an immediate opportunity to find a co-producer, sales agent or distributor for their projects.

Tutors

Among our tutors are Philip LaZebnik (scriptwriter of Disney movies – e.g. Mulan, Pocahontas, currently working in Europe), Kirsten Bonnén Rask (previously consulting scripts of Lars von Trier and Urlich Seidl, currently writer, producer and consultant of many children films), Armin Prediger (screenwriter, story editor, creative coach, mentor and consultant working in the entertainment industry for 31 years) and Ronald Kruschak (producer and writer, his films got many awards in Germany, some of them reached 1 mln audience).
