11:45 - 13:00: DEMAND CREATION: HOW TO ENGAGE A CHANGING AUDIENCE
The European film industry is coming to terms with a rapidly evolving environment with new technologies, changing patterns of audience behaviour disrupting established business. The Covid crisis has accentuated and accelerated changing patterns of audience demand for European film. Months of lockdown has increased interest in on-demand viewing and we need to learn lessons about how European talent and business can build on those changes. Lockdown proved the value of cooperation between on demand services and cinemas and festivals. That combination of online and physical opens up tremendous potential for European film and for cultural diversity. This session will focus on how to build collaboration and cooperation in a new digital framework on the interests of film, audience and business. It will look at emerging models and best practice and how they can be best implemented.
