a. Malaga Film Festival: countdown for the call of Malaga Work in Progress
From APCP we are very excited because we are getting closer to Malaga Film Festival 2024. We are very excited to be organizing the VI edition of Advertising Film Production Activities.
Stay tuned because we’ll be telling you more details!!!
Although for now, we can tell you what the Festival de Málaga is planning…
On December 15, 2023, the call for Malaga Work in Progress opened, an event that is part of its Industry area MAFIZ (Malaga Festival Industry Zone) and is aimed at Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American projects. The objective is to seal the festival’s commitment to the diversity of identities and languages of the Ibero-American sphere and its audiovisual industry. The seventh edition will take place from March 4 to 8, 2024 as part of Spanish Screenings Content at the 27th Malaga Festival.
Spanish Screenings Content 2024 consists of an event designed as an international promotional platform whose main objective is to promote the sales of Spanish cinema.
Malaga WIP is organized by the Malaga City Council and the Malaga Film Festival in collaboration with the ICAA (Instituto de Cinematografía y de las Artes Visuales de España), CAACI (Conferencia de Autoridades Audiovisuales y Cinematográficas de Iberoamérica), IBERMEDIA and FIPCA (Federación Iberoamericana de Productores Cinematográficos y Audiovisuales). Malaga WIP, in its seventh edition, aims to boost the financing of films by presenting them to prominent industry professionals; to encourage their dissemination and promotion; to support the completion of films in post-production and to make their international distribution viable.
It consists of two different actions: Malaga WIP Spain and Malaga WIP Iberoamerica. The participating titles will be selected by a prestigious committee of experts and will be screened to professionals participating in MAFIZ and the 27th Malaga Festival, sales agents, international distributors, festival programmers, international funds and producers.
The registration of projects can be done online until January 15 through the MAFIZ website. The announcement of the selected projects will be made during the same month.
