This event aims to map the current Italian short film ecosystem and offer an analysis tool in support of cultural policies for short films in Italy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The project stems from the need to fill a knowledge gap in the national audiovisual landscape; for instance, the lack of up-to-date, structured quantitative data, or the need for a critical reflection on the cultural, productive and distributive role of the short film format, now increasingly recognized as an autonomous form of expression and a prime field of artistic and professional experimentation, starting from training and educational institutions. The project (2025-2026) involves conducting surveys addressed to the key players in the industry: production companies, distributors, film schools, festivals, and markets, as well as analyzing the contributions and initiatives for the industry made by public and private institutions. The data collected will be jointly processed and analyzed with the aim of mapping a sector that is fragmented, but yet essential for understanding the future forms of expression of contemporary audiovisual media.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The results will be published in a final report, and presented to the public with the aim of starting a dialogue between professionals, scholars, and institutions. The first event will be held on Wednesday, <\/span><b>August 20<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in Piacenza<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(3-6 pm, Salone Amici dell&#8217;Arte of Galleria d&#8217;Arte Moderna Ricci Oddi, Via San Siro 13) as<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">part of Industry Day 2025 of Concorto Film Festival. In this occasion, the methodological framework of the research will be presented and there will be a first dialogue with the main stakeholders of the sector, in order to initiate a shared reflection on the critical issues and perspectives of short films in Italy.
