Papaya Young Directors creates a unique opportunity for young filmmakers — opening the door to the industry for creative talents. Thanks to the competition’s Main Partners, the contestants get the chance to make a film for a big international brand with a basic budget coverage, learn from the film, music and commercial experts and get access to a wide networking hub.
The whole initiative is driven by a mission to create an inclusive network for creators. Papaya Young Directors is able to do so thanks to the support of the Main Partners. The briefs they provide are the starting points for each young talent to make their film. And by talents we do not mean just directors—the organizers advice their contestants to team up in duos where screenwriters and copywriters can work alongside aspiring directors.
