Screen360.tv

Screen360.tv’s action is to extend the thoughtful international film and film culture for young audiences - particularly the model presented at film festivals like the Berlinale’s Generation, Ale Kino! Poland, and the Olympia Festival in Greece - as an online learning tool. Screen360.tv offers a unique opportunity for European students to extend their legacy through engaging in peer-to-peer learning with their international peers elsewhere in the world. Likewise, Screen360.tv Lab contributes to curriculum as a learning tool for film students in order to better understand their audience, in support of making authentic stories rooted in empathy for young audiences.

Cognitive research reveals international films watched in childhood have the capacity to plant cornerstone memories and to potentially direct the life built upon them. Screen360.tv asserts that films shown in the European film festival manner have the capacity to contribute to a broader worldview, thus, a more empathetic and communicative globe for the future.

Screen 360tv is a secure online portal for the delivery of a regularly-curated international film program for young audiences, ages 6 - 18 in the European film festival model. Screen 360tv will license to school and hospital systems, government programs, non-governmental organizations and homeschool households. Viewers schedule time to explore the world through original-language cinema made or curated for the young viewer, and moderated discussion further connects them with peers somewhere else in the world. The portal includes a feature allowing viewers to schedule a screening, view through a streaming function, and engage in question and answer sessions synchronously via the video conferencing system or asynchronously via a text feature. Screen360.tv offers immersive, worldly experiences to young audiences, especially those isolated due to economic or health restrictions. Screen360.tv promotes cultural literacy, multilingualism, and peer communication.

MISSION OF PROJECT: To increase cultural literacy, global understanding and multi-subject curricular support through the exchange of international film programming for young audiences shown in the festival model at institutions where young people learn. To provide an online meeting place for young audiences to watch and learn about film and themselves as international peers, across time and geographical borders. To provide a learning tool which supports film school curriculum in the development of authentic films for young audiences.
