Europe Digital Talents

At UMW, we believe that the European Film industry must live up to the digital challenge by offering an adapted response both in terms of film creation and distribution. Indeed, its future relevance depends on its capacity to harness emerging creative forces. "Europe Digital Talents" is an ambitious project with far-reaching long-term objectives, while also being concrete and currently operational. The project relies on UMW’s assets to identify “digital-native” talents and ensure that their films reach the most prominent platforms in the world, while supporting their distribution with adapted marketing campaigns to effectively address audiences.

IN SHORT, "EUROPE DIGITAL TALENTS" :

1. BUILDS AN OFFER OF 6 DIGITAL-NATIVE EUROPEAN FILMS,

2. CREATES AND IMPLEMENTS ADAPTED MARKETING STRATEGIES,

3. COORDINATES DIRECT-TO-DIGITAL VOD DISTRIBUTION AROUND THE WORLD.

The stakes are high as it requires a shift of paradigm relying on integrated Production/Distribution circuits, thus revamping economic cycles, which gain in reliability, transparency and efficiency. "Europe Digital Talents" is the result of more than 10 years of experience (more than 5,000 films distributed) and answers pressing demands from European talents. Current times are in need of innovative models, and we are evermore convinced that digital-native talents must fully be supported as they are our industry’future.
