REEL LIFE, an intensive workshop hosted by Netflix, aims to cultivate the next generation of filmmakers in Thailand by providing a behind-the-scenes experience of entertainment production. Over three days and two nights, participants will have the opportunity to shadow industry professionals and gain first-hand insight into the workings of a film set.
This workshop underscores Netflix's commitment to nurturing talent and expanding opportunities in the Thai entertainment industry.
Open to all Thai nationals without age restrictions, the programme will accommodate up to 80 participants. Each attendee will engage in workshops covering various aspects of production including set production, post production, script supervision, office production and production accounting.
The project seeks to empower individuals from diverse backgrounds, ensuring that talent and passion -- not educational credentials -- take centre stage. By fostering this inclusive environment, Netflix aims to propel Thai entertainment to new heights.
Key application details for this year's workshop include:
- Thai nationality is required.
- There are no age or gender restrictions.
- No educational qualifications are necessary.
- The workshop will take place from Aug 2-4 in Bangkok (overnight stay required; accommodation provided at no cost).
