Dates: MAY 21 onwards (broken schedule, class decides schedule)
Venue: UP Film Institute, University of the Philippines Campus, Diliman, Quezon City

As changing patterns in consumption of films call for innovative approaches to bringing the art of motion picture to audiences, UP Film Institute offers a new workshop course, Curating for Cinema.

Ideal for cultural workers, event organizers, project specialists both from the public and private sector. Slots are limited and participants are encouraged to each have a specific film event in mind to develop all throughout the hands-on sessions. The course begins with a pilot session on May 21 with schedule of succeeding sessions to be determined among the participants themselves to allow for the most flexible and feasible means for them to individually map out the tasks and requirements of the film event they bring into the workshop. Prior to workshop proper, interested participants will have to undergo consultations.
