Green Film Lab es una convocatoria internacional organizada por TorinoFilmLab, con sede en Italia, orientada a profesionales del sector audiovisual interesados en integrar prácticas de sostenibilidad ambiental en sus procesos de producción. El laboratorio se enfoca en fortalecer conocimientos y herramientas vinculadas a la producción verde, sin restringirse a un género narrativo específico.
La convocatoria está abierta a proyectos de largometraje, documental y series de televisión, en distintas etapas de desarrollo o producción temprana, siempre que estén vinculados a equipos o profesionales que deseen aplicar criterios sostenibles en el ámbito audiovisual. Se trata de un taller especializado, más cercano a un laboratorio de formación que a un espacio de pitch o mercado.
El programa se realizará de manera presencial en la ciudad de Turín, Italia, entre el 17 y el 19 de abril de 2026. La fecha límite de postulación es el 20 de febrero de 2026. La convocatoria acepta postulaciones internacionales y está dirigida a profesionales del cine, la televisión y áreas afines comprometidos con la sostenibilidad en la industria audiovisual.

The Fundación RIO Call, part of the International Film Festival of Lebu, aims to strengthen the Chilean audiovisual industry by supporting fiction and documentary short films up to 30 minutes, excluding pure animation and completed projects. It is open to individuals or legal entities based in Chile, with a focus on projects from different regions of the country. Submissions are accepted from December 29, 2025, to April 15, 2026.
After the deadline, a committee evaluates the projects and selects preselected participants, who present a live pitch during BioBío Conecta 2026, between April 27 and 30, 2026. Notifications to preselected projects are sent approximately 12 days after the submission deadline.
The winning project receives a financial award to support production of the short film, along with visibility and networking opportunities. This call seeks to decentralize the Chilean audiovisual industry, providing space for creators from various regions and promoting both national and international exposure for their work.

The Residència de Guions (5th edition) is a script development program organized by the Catalan Film Academy, based in Catalonia, Spain. It is designed for film projects at the writing stage and offers long-term creative support for screenwriters.
The application period runs from January 19 to February 23, 2026, until 3:00 pm. The residency itself will take place from September 2026 to May 2027, lasting approximately nine months.
The call is open to feature-length projects in fiction, documentary, and animation. It operates as a scriptwriting residency and development lab, rather than a market or pitching forum, focusing on in-depth work on the screenplay.
The program accepts international applications. While it promotes projects connected to the Catalan language and cultural context, participation is not limited to national applicants, reflecting an open and internationally oriented approach.
