We are delighted to be taking part in the FILMFEST Munich Industry Talks with our panel NEW RULES, NEW ROLES – HOW STORIES BECOME WORLDS, in collaboration with SERIENCAMP.

The film industry is changing: content is being consumed via new forms of media and received in different ways. Established structures and workflows are shifting, and what once worked is now merely the bare minimum. With new ideas and workflows, stories are emerging that are no longer confined to a single format, but unfold as multi-layered worlds across different media outlets. This panel invites you to discover new perspectives on and new roles in storytelling.
