In addition to this special theme we will touch on the classic topics from pre-production to promotion including the philosophy of making motion pictures.

Football Short Film Competition “Shoot Goals! Shoot Movies!”
The Berlinale Talent Campus is holding an exciting new contest: A short film competition on football. If you are a young talented filmmaker who loves football this is your chance. The Campus is looking for shorts about the passion for football, the people who love it and the culture it generates in your country. Of course we’re not referring to the game with the same name in the US, Canada and Australia – here we are talking about soccer.
The films should be between 30 seconds and 5 minutes long, in English or have English subtitles. All genres are acceptable: drama, documentary, animated or a mixture of any of the three. To qualify, you must have certified professional experience in the motion picture field (film school or experience on several productions). Please read the regulations at www.berlinale-talentcampus.de/football.
If your film is selected it will have outstanding exposure. It will not only be shown at the 55th Berlin International Film Festival (10 – 20 February, 2005) but also at events of the official cultural programme of the 2006 FIFA World Cup Germany. You will be invited to the third Berlinale Talent Campus and for a week during the 2006 FIFA World Cup Germany.
Please note that the application deadline for the Football Short Film Competition is 15 September, 2004.
