17 October, 2024 h 2:00 pm
The panel will delve into the criteria for achieving economic sustainability in film production, with a particular emphasis on the producers’ perspective. While highlighting the critical—but not sole—role of theatrical distribution, it will examine the various release channels for films and how these impact project selection and development. Participants will discuss the key factors that guide decisions to produce, co-produce, or abandon a project, along with the KPIs that determine a production’s success or failure. The panel will also explore how these economic considerations align with production cost dynamics in Europe, addressing the challenges of an evolving international market and the shifting landscape of the audiovisual industry.
