Dialogue Forums


Forums 1: New Production and Distribution Channels for Documentaries and Documentary Industry


论坛1英文.jpg

图为《纪录片业的新型制作及销售路径 — 新媒体平台的角色》论坛嘉宾交流_副本.jpg

 TV stations become platforms – or platforms become tv stations?

   In the beginning studios around filmmakers saw SVOD platforms

   rather as an additional means of distribution at the end of the

   distribution cycle. By now platforms such as Netflix, Amazon,

   Apple have turned into producers and buyers with million dollars

   budgets. Documentary films have become part of the portfolio.

   Certainly the audience response to documentary films on the

   popular platforms can't be compared to top series like Game

   of Thrones“ or „House of Cards“, but content providers such as

   Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, and of late Facebook and Vimeo as well

   also produce and buy high class documentary productions. At

   the moment the proportion of bought and own productions for

   Netflix is said to be 50:50. Among others Netflix has „Man on Wire“,

   Academy Award winner 2009 for „Best Documentary Film“ and

   films of Werner Herzog's, namely Into the Inferno“.


Forums 2: Filming in extreme Areas


论坛2英文.jpg

图为《极端形势下的拍摄》论坛嘉宾_副本.jpg

We have all gotten used to seeing daily reports from crisis and

conflict zones. Television news are seemingly documentarily

authenticated with shaky, mostly vertical, cellphone footage.

Maybe add a short sentence by a correspondent and we can

leave the war zone behind again. There is little space in modern

news flow to look behind the scenes and get to know the people

affected. The guests of the Forum“ Location Conflict Zone” show,

that there are other possibilities and ways to work.


   Forums 3: Documentary and Television: Today and Future



论坛3英文.jpg

图为《纪录片与电视:当下与未来》论坛嘉宾_副本.jpg

   To deliver the information, to build the connection, to provide the

   social and political insight, all of which belongs or should belong

   to the natural duties of television. Especially in the time of the

   growing self-referential confusing “Fake-News”, the journalistic

   classifications are of the utmost importance. However, the reality

   of the world doesn’t only reflect in News, Magazines and the

   formatted documentations. The documentary filmmakers all over

   the world put their own insights towards what happens in the

   world and in front of their cameras. In the hands of documentary

   filmmakers the reality is a material as similar as the script of a

   fictional production.

   Together with international experts, we would, through this panel,

   try to explain the rolls of documentary films, especially those in

 artistic formats, in television systems in different countries.


Forums 4: Investment and Documentaries -- New Investment Model for Documentary Films

论坛4英文.jpg

图为《投资纪录片的时代来临》论坛现场_副本.jpg

 Documentary investors, producers and buyers from Germany,

 China, Canada, Switzerland, Greece and other countries, with

 demand and hope for the documentary investment market, At the

 Golden Tree International Documentary Film Festival, face to face

 with documentary films in the forum dialogue, For international

 cooperation and investment.

 Firstly, Investors from different countries will introduce and analyze

 the documentary investment in the country or the industry'

 situation and trends;

 Secondly, Investors from various countries will explore the

 investment cooperation in the documentary area under the

 impact of globalization with their personal experience;

 Lastly, Investors from various countries express the

 recommendations and prospects for investor platform at the

 Golden Tree International Documentary Festival.

Forums 5: Documentary - Educational Model and Prospect


论坛5英文.jpg

图为《纪录片业的教育方式和前景》论坛嘉宾_副本.jpg

 The interdisciplinary approaches will lead to a higher interface

 competence and open the door to career paths in many branches

 such as film, television, advertising, communication, education

and culture.

 The graduates of the subject of “Media: the Conception &

 Production” can carry out the conceptual duties as well as

 the technical tasks relating to the producing in fields such as

 broadcasting organization, media and advertising agency,

 production company, company communication, event

 management etc. Meanwhile, the integrated foreign semester

 provides the opportunities to the international career.

 In the panel “Documentary Film – the methodology and the

 perspective on education”, we would certainly like to get involved

 into many small segments concerning the education in the

 documentary film industry.


Forums 6: Documentary and Philosophy :What is our consciousness?

论坛6英文.jpg

图为《纪录片与哲学论坛 – “什么是我们的意识”》现场_副本.jpg

 The major Homo sapiens’s challenge in this XXI century will be to

 understand and take care of his own psychic growth.

 How to set the real face to intersubjectivity?

 What contemporary research gives up in cognitive psychology?

 How to interpret senses’ physiological localization in our brain?

 What is the impact of new technologies of information and

 communication and cinema on our cognitive practices?

 What are the consequences of the important brain plasticity?

 In front of the immense fields of investigations’ diversity, it

 seems to us important to extend the meetings by integrating

 in this Forum contributors with spiritual practices on state of

 consciousness’ changes (shamans, Griots ...) and introduce them

 into this scientific research debate.


The Second Golden Tree International Documentary Film Festival has concluded.
