Within FRAME Sevilla, the Seville European Film Festival’s professional hub, workshops, roundtables, meetings, cycles and networking events will once again bring together the European film community.
Filmmaker Pablo Berger, whose latest film 'Robot Dreams' was nominated for the Academy Award, won two Goya Awards, and received accolades in Annecy, Sitges and the European Film Awards for Best Animated Feature, will lead 'Writing in Images'. This 20-hour workshop, organized by the Seville European Film Festival and Fundación SGAE, is aimed at students, film enthusiasts and professionals. It combines lectures and practical activities, taking as case studies Berger’s award-winning films 'Blancanieves' and 'Robot Dreams'. At the end, participants will work on a practical writing exercise under the filmmaker’s direct supervision. Registration will be open in the next link from today to October 3.
On the other hand, GUASA, a pioneering comedy workshop for Andalusian screenwriters, will be directed by screenwriter Fernando Hernández Barral (director and writer of 'Matusalén', starring Antonio Resines and Julián López). Developed as part of the CreANDo program, an initiative by the Andalusian Regional Government in collaboration with the Seville, Málaga and Huelva film festivals, GUASA will feature several training sessions—both theoretical and practical—mentored by the writing team of the hit series Sin gluten. With a clear goal of discovering new comedy talent, the workshop will culminate with participants developing and presenting a commissioned gag. With a maximum of 12 participants, GUASA will run for 24 hours across three days. Registration will remain open in this link from today to October 6.
Through these activities, the Seville European Film Festival reaffirms its role as a reference point for training, dialogue, exchange and projection for professionals across the audiovisual sector.
