Creative Skills Europe Webinar: “To produce or not to produce is never the question”

March 23, 2021 @ 2:00 am - 3:30 pm

On Tuesday, 23 March 2021, from 2-3.30 PM, another digital skills webinar will take place. The European social partners behind Creative Skills Europe – the European Federation of Journalists (EFJ), the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), the International Federation of Actors (FIA), the International Federation of Musicians (FIM), the Performing Arts Employers Associations League Europe (Pearle*) and UNI Europa media, entertainment & arts (EURO-MEI) are glad to invite you to this second webinar aimed at increasing the digital skills in the Live Performance and Audiovisual sectors.

You can register for the webinar here.

This second webinar is part of trilogy. After a first event held in November 2020 dedicated to creation, this second webinar will focus on digital skills and tools in the production process.

As new digital, hybrid, live, online, VR, paperless, interactive content production processes have gone ‘viral’, have you ever wondered what happens backstage? Which new tools can be used to tell great stories – even against all odds?

We will give the floor to professionals, pioneers in their field. We will discover through their ‘real life’ experiences and insights how they acquired their digital skills and put them into practice. The goal is to inspire participants to start experimenting and learning new smart skills.
