Cinekid – Workshop – Script LAB

Cinekid Script LAB is a six-month script-training programme for writers with a children’s film or series project. The training was initiated by Cinekid in 2014, and takes place during Cinekid for Professionals in October, and the Berlinale the following February.

The event is co-funded by national institutes such as Flanders Audiovisual Fund (BE), Norwegian Film Institute (NO), Swedish Film Institute (SE), Netherlands Film Fund (NL), Icelandic Film Centre (IC), Finnish Film Foundation (FI) and the Polish Film Institute (PL).

During the Cinekid Script LAB, an international group of writers and writer/directors will work on their plans for children’s feature films or series. The programme offers tailor-made coaching and training; it answers to the specific writer’s and story’s needs, along a six-month trajectory.

The deadline for applications for Cinekid Script LAB has passed, and projects for the 2021-2022 edition can no longer be submitted. The regulations for Cinekid Script LAB 2021-2022 can be found here. For questions, kindly contact us at professionals@cinekid.nl.
