FILM.UA Faculty presents unique integrated programs for adults - Skill Bill and children - Cinema Kids. 

Skill Bill includes lectures, seminars and workshops on TV and filmmaking: - Skill Bill Pro for professionals, Skill Bill Start – for the industry newcomers and Acting School for Adults.

Vladimir Issat (creative producer FILM.UA Group) held the first lecture "Film producer: from the Choice of the Script to the Final Credits" in the course of Skill Bill. The speaker told the audience about the adaptation of a foreign scripted format, creation of a script based on one's own ideas, creation of a film/series on a ready-made script. The second master class in the course of Skill Bill was held by Olena Fetisova (Producer, Director and Scriptwriter, Interfilm Production Studio), Simone Baumann (German Films, East Europe Representative) and Vita Bazan (coordinator of Spilnokosht project at social innovations platform Bigggg Idea). The experts discussed ways of finding financial support and co-producers for film projects. 

The next master class by Ekaterina Shvets and Anna Skok was dedicated to the topic - "Budget and Planning of Film Production - from the Script to the Medium. Work of Executive Producer and Film Director. Building Timing and Shooting Schedule". 

Cinema Kids provides educational programs for children (7-15 years): Acting Classes for Children, Children's School of Dubbing Tak Treba, and a special course Cinema Holidays, which allows children to make their first movie during their school holidays.

"Our company, Media Resources Management, has combined the efforts  with FILM.UA Group - one of the biggest film studios in Eastern Europe that has created thousands hours of successful content. That’s the reason we believe we have enough professionals, talents and specialists to share our knowledge with others. In addition, there is a comfortable and cozy location at the studio - advanced cinema theatre where all the master classes will be held. Primarily we sincerely want to develop and facilitate film and TV industry in Ukraine. We want all the market players to talk the same professional language and  move towards the international level step by step. Today we can already see the first examples of successful Ukrainian projects. For instance, The Sniffer series was sold to France as a format meaning that Ukrainian idea will be adapted in French manner. Another example is the film Inseparable that was nominated for Visual Effects Awards (VES Awards). The project got into the shortlist of the best international projects in two categories but has lost the victory to … Game of Thrones. We want to see many more of examples like the mentioned above," - comments Victoria Yarmoshchuk, CEO Media Resources Management.
