Description
Our project will contribute to the professional growth of Czech cinemas, which form the Czech Exhibitors’ Association (hereinafter APK) and, ultimately, the entire professional audiovisual community. Thanks to the project''s outputs, cinemas and other professionals will improve their ability to meet the challenges posed to culture by the Covid-19 pandemic. In the rapidly changing world of audiovisual production, they will gain professional confidence and improve much-needed communication with each other, leading to greater stability of the whole sector.
As part of the project, we will implement a series of educational activities carried out immediately after our three largest professional meetings. We will add one day to each of these meetings, during which we will organize a series of workshops for a narrower group of cinema operators. Most of the educational activities will be organized for a selected group of 30 active cinemas, mainly due to the greater efficiency of joint work. Based on the outputs, we will create a new strategy for working with (young) audiences, which will benefit the entire professional community.
Participation in these above-mentioned annual events is an established practice for cinemas from all over the country, so there is no doubt that the professional community will participate in their expanded and innovative form and will be interested in a wide range of planned activities.
4 planned training sessions for the management of the APK Board of Directors are also essential; This Board of Directors consists of 9 elected executive representatives who serve a two-year term. One of the training’s outputs will also be the creation of an APK management methodology, including guidelines that will serve to maintain the continuity of the association''s management.
