From Paper to Screen
An itinerant creative-management workshop for audiovisual: in four free sessions, participants plan and develop their own project — from an overview of the sector to fundraising, production and distribution. It travelled through Curitiba, Paranaguá and Toledo (PR), with places reserved for under-represented groups.

About the project
The course “Creative Management in Audiovisual: Projects from Paper to Screen” shows, in practice, how an audiovisual project happens from start to finish — not just theory: participants organise, plan and develop their own project. Free and accessible, with professional guidance, real simulations and market insight, it trains new talent in Curitiba, Paranaguá and Toledo (PR), reserving places for under-represented groups.
Syllabus (4 sessions): 1) Introduction to audiovisual — an overview of the sector; 2) Planning and feasibility — schedule, budget and fundraising; 3) Production — pre-production, production and post-production; 4) Distribution and management — circulation, legal, ethics and accountability. Current topics include trends and Artificial Intelligence.
