Although digital technology is now part of everyday life, a plethora of workflows on one hand and a lack of lasting standards/supports on the other make the work of film professionals more challenging: how to fulfil the demands of the partners? How positioning the films on the market?

Digital Production Challenge II enables professionals to get a better grasp of this complex environment, of the task division between the partners involved, while allowing being more confident in directing, producing and distributing in this ever-evolving digital world. This upcoming edition will take place in Lithuania, Vilnius, from 4-7 November 2015.
