Forum des images : Film and digital video training
The Forum des Images cultural institution in the city of Paris, is a cultural place of film programming, offers a collection of films about Paris and beyond, as well as many resources on its website. The teams face very directly to rapid changes in digital video formats, and issues, including qualitative, but also communication, one can face.
I proposed a training day to give more accurate and practical bases of understanding.
Education Program
- Fundamentals of digital.
- The digital image.

The summary document produced during this training day can be useful to all.
Benoît Labourdette designs and leads professional training courses for new media, within training centers (CEFPF, INA Expert, Universities) as well as directly for companies or professional networks (ARTE, Forum des images, Documentaire sur Grand Ecran, Altermédia, Drôle de Trame, SCAM, NAAIS, CFI...).
The digital revolution consists in these new technologies which populate our daily life and modify the uses, the produced contents, the channels of diffusion, the economic models, the relations, the working methods...
The training allows the appropriation of these new languages, technologies and practices, in a perspective of professional construction: discover, experiment and appropriate tools, strategies, creative techniques, based on solid conceptual foundations. The goal is to equip oneself to be able to build the future of the audiovisual field in a concrete, open, innovative and economically viable way.
You will find here a few examples of internship processes, as well as downloadable deliverables.
