Workshop
Emerging Video Technologies and New Opportunities

The development of today's technology in filmmaking doesn't only make room for more freedom but also influences the style of the films. Young and successful directors Ceylan Özgün Özçelik and Emre Akay have been creating professional works with mobile devices recently. Are some of the difficulties faced in film production such as the technical details and the costs of equipment, no longer a hindrance? Ceylan Özgün Özçelik and Emre Akay will share their knowledge and experiences with the festival audience.
