lab station – project development workshop

We evaluate short film projects in progress at Lab Station. As a result of the evaluation made by our selection committee consisting of cinema professionals, we choose the projects we will support from set to screen.

Our Istanbul Lab Station road map we prepared for you is as follows:


1st station:
Project owners apply by paying a fee equivalent to approximately one movie ticket.

2nd station: The pre-selection committee, consisting of Istanbul Film Station team members, creates a shortlist among the applications.

3rd station: Our selection committee selects 8 projects from the shortlist that qualify to participate in Lab Station.

4th station: During the Istanbul Film Station event, finalists receive special training from leading names in the industry to develop their projects. They also participate in Market Station events and have different resources and networks for their projects.
