International Film Festival Rotterdam
IFFR Trainee Project for Young Film Critics 2007

call for applicants age under 30 years

The 9th IFFR Trainee Project for Young Film Critics of the International
Film Festival Rotterdam offers up to six young (under 30 years), motivated
and talented film critics from outside The Netherlands a chance to get
acquainted with the festival and the cinema of the world.
The project was created in 1998 motivated by the fact that young and
upcoming film critics get less opportunities to explore this range of
cinema and the festivals, like the International Film Festival Rotterdam,
that present it. The IFFR's CineMart organises a trainee project for young
film producers (Rotterdam Lab) in close collaboration with its partner
organisations.

In the past eight editions we welcomed trainee film critics from
Argentina, Australia, Austria, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, China,
France, Hungary, India, Italy, Lithuania, Poland, Russia, Sri Lanka,
Sweden, UK and USA.

IMPORTANT NOTE
The deadline for applications is Friday November 10, 2006. Applications
received after this deadline risk not to be proceeded.

What to expect:
We offer up to six young film critics a press accreditation, budget hotel
accommodations from January 24 up to and including February 3 and (part
of) their airfare according to their country of origin.

Expect a programme of assigned tasks, but there will be time to explore
all aspects of the festival - films, panel meetings, Q&A sessions, art
exhibitions, debates, talk shows.

We want the selected film critics to really participate in the festival.
Each trainee will be assigned to a specific task that can range from
attending the FIPRESCI Jury-meetings, covering a festival sidebar or
contributing to the IFFR Daily Tiger. Each trainee will also be asked to
report on their assignments and experiences in up to three articles,
interviews or essays on the IFFR website.

In addition, they should work on articles to be published in their home
country. The trainees will form a team, supported by the IFFR Press Office
and Daily Tiger Editorial Staff.

Criteria for application:
Age under 30 years
Fluent command of the English language (written and spoken)
Demonstrable experience in film criticism (printed media,
radio/television, online)
Not yet established enough to profit from facilities as attending
international festivals outside your country
Have agreement(s) with printed and/or online media to publish a report or
reports on the International Film Festival Rotterdam 2007

information:
• a motivation letter to support your application: explain why this
project and the Rotterdam festival appeals to you.
• your resume (CV) including your contact details and date of birth.
• up to three proofs of work - not older than 2 years and signed with your
