Networking: $2250 Tuition, approximately May 14-27th, 2012

(Exact tuition amount determined by bedding option selected. Travel not included.)

The Networking program is designed for filmmakers and industry professionals who want access to the Cannes Film Festival to develop their professional networking skills. The program provides housing and guidance within Cannes and the festival in addition to attending screenings and parties.

It can be challenging breaking the ice and knowing what to say and where to go to say it. We will be guiding you through everything – giving you skills that you can use at any film festival or networking event around the world.

  1. Each participant must submit a recent short film through us free of charge into the Short Film Corner of the Cannes Film Festival (for which you provided any role; ie., director, producer, actor, etc.). See film requirements HERE. Real Ideas Studio may interview applicants to determine your networking “plan of action” to make the most of the opportunities at Cannes.

  2. Prior to Cannes, Real Ideas Studio is producing a feature documentary. Each networking participant may also chose to assist in the promotion of this film during the festival, providing you with an additional opportunity to make connections at the festival.

  3. The program offers multiple networking workshops and social events – most optional – so you have the freedom you want to take full advantage of all of the opportunities the festival offers.

  4. The Networking Program’s tuition covers all-access accreditation into the Cannes Film Festival, 13 nights shared housing within walking distance to the festival, daily breakfasts, program parties, and professional mentorship to guide networking activities. (Travel to and from Cannes is not covered by the Program tuition.)

  5. Unlike other similar programs, the Real Ideas Studio program limits the size of its program to a maximum of 30 participants so no one gets “lost in the crowd” and everyone has the personal mentorship they desire.

  6. Interested networkers should apply at their earliest convenience; applications close when the program is filled. Application to the Networking Program is free.
