Professional Workshops

FILM FABRIK

Since the creation of Ile Courts Festival, it has been strongly defined by the workshops it hosts. Each year, the festival sets up a temporary film school, a place of learning, research and creation for young directors, actors, technicians and producers.

Couper Court (cut it short)


This minutious, largely invisible and highly intuitive work is a crucial phase in filmmaking. Indeed, editing is the last phase of writing the film, allowing it to take its final, global meaning. What’s the relationship between the director and the editing team? How to create intentional ruptures or the illusion of continuity? Our selected directors and editors will experiment will all these issues under the experienced eyes of Nadia Ben Rachid, Tunisian head-editor.

The anatomy of a film


For the story to translate well onto the screen, a director has to master all the steps that lead from the script to the film: stripping down the screenplay, the découpage and composition, storyboarding, location scouting… All the processes that preclude shooting will be dealt with here.
