In preparation for this year's Kids Kino Industry, we're hosting a series of a free weekly Inspirational Webinars with industry professionals. The first webinar “Exploring The Change. Göteborg’s Film Festival Nostradamus Report Meets Kids Kino Industry” starts today at 15:00 CEST (GMT+2).

When: Every MONDAY from 24th August to 21st September
Where: ZOOM
Cost: FREE (register here)

We kick off our Inspirational Webinars with a dynamic session on the future of the children’s screen industry in the light of the COVID-19 crisis. Media analyst and author of the Nostradamus Report, Johanna Koljonen, will introduce us to the 2020 edition of CREATIVE EXPLOSION, discussing screen industry developments in the context of global macro trends including the pandemic. Focusing on the young audiences platform agnostic perception of the content she reflects on new possibilities for creators and distributors in terms of storytelling, audience relationship and releases.

The session will be joined and moderated by David Kleeman who brings in his analytic knowledge on how children make their choices around the media and what they are seeking in the near future.

Finally, Madiana Asseraf-Jacob from the European Broadcasting Union will guide us through an overview on how children’s public broadcasting have been shaping their formats and content during the pandemic and what the main lessons learnt from here in terms of their future programming are.

There is more to come!
