A typical panel of experts consists of representatives of the following professions: recognised cinematographer, talent agent, producer, director, distributor, representative of an international film festival… What is important is that the experts are selected after careful analysis of all successful applications.

What previous participants say?

"One of the things that makes this festival so unique is the feeling that everyone is equal within it. No matter the status or fame of the person attending Camerimage we are all filmmakers drawn to this festival through our passion for the craft. Filmmaking is a collaborative effort and the generosity of Mr. Heim and his colleagues were imperative to bring Catch to its completion."
Jeremy Glaholt, Talent Demo 2012 participant
 
"It has been for me a great experience Camerimage and Talent Demo, I learned many things and this great opportunity opened my mind to new experiences and the advisory program was very good. Sharing with filmmakers from around the world pushes me to keep going and not give up on the long road to complete a film, the philosophy of the festival is very important: I felt a brotherhood among filmmakers, which is very important to create a global community, especially in these times when the world is torn between borders and cultural differences."
Arturo Almanza, Talent Demo 2015 participant

Talent Demo session will be held during EnergaCAMERIMAGE Festival in Toruń.
