The Project Pitches Training is a Chinese film creation training program organized by the Beijing International Film Festival (BJIFF) Beijing Film Market to further cultivate young filmmakers with both creative talent and production ability.
The first Project Pitches Training will be launched in 2021 and one session will be organized each year in the future. The training, with a mentor rotation system, will invite outstanding filmmakers from Chinese-speaking regions to serve as mentors to conduct face-to-face communication and guidance with selected participants and share practical experience.
It aims to stimulate creators to complete a short film with a specified theme within a time limit through targeted text creation, shooting and post-production guidance, thus creating a career starting point for young film creation talents, accelerating their path into the industry, and broadening their vision.
