LAB-PNR is a training and development lab designed to support emerging filmmakers, screenwriters, directors, and producers in the creation of their professional short films. After three successful editions, it has become a benchmark within Spain’s emerging film industry. The 2025 edition offers an intensive space to enhance the aesthetic and narrative quality of selected projects, improve their dossiers, and prepare them for a final pitch in front of industry professionals.
Eight projects will be selected from members of PNR, SGAE, and/or DAMA, whose creators are involved as directors, producers, and/or screenwriters. Participants will receive masterclasses, one-on-one consultations with industry experts, and leave the lab with strong materials ready to present to funding bodies and potential investors.
The lab will take place in Madrid at SGAE headquarters from June 2 to 5, 2025. Selected participants (up to two per project) will receive full scholarships covering all lab activities, including breakfast and lunch during the sessions. Travel and accommodation expenses must be covered by the participants.
The LAB concludes with a final pitch in September, during the Industry Section of the Madrid-PNR Film Festival, offering a valuable opportunity to connect with production companies, distributors, and streaming platforms.
