Synopsis

Lecturer: Elliot Grove was born in Canada and lives in London. He founded the Raindance Film Festival in 1993, the well-known British Independent Film Awards in 1998 and Raindance TV in 2007. Apart from that, he has produced over 700 short films and five feature films, written eight scripts and three non-fiction books, all considered to be standard literature. Grove has been teaching scriptwriting and film production for years. Among the participants of his workshops are thousands of young filmmakers, but even international top directors such as Christopher Nolan, Guy Ritchie and Matthew Vaughn have taken part in it.

Content: Personal Branding has become a key word in the international film business, regardless of whether it is talking about traditional or social media. Whoever (as a filmmaker) is unable to turn himself, his career, his scripts or his movies into a brand, is fighting a losing battle. The strategies leading to success differ – ever so lightly – from those used in economics. Which skills and abilities are required for filmmakers to establish themselves as a brand? In this Master Class, Elliot Grove answers all relevant questions.
