Testing special effects: matte painting and chroma key
A visit focused on storytelling in film that demonstrates how a real, or virtual, set begins with a sketch, explains the evolution over time of some special effects techniques and allows participants to experiment with early matte painting, reinventing a setting with colour. In the interactive green screen room, participants star in a short film with three different animated backgrounds thanks to the use of the chroma key technique which places people and objects in virtual settings.
Emotions on screen: in an actor’s shoes
Dramatic settings, unusual props and fairytale costumes are the starting point for a deep dive into the atmospheres evoked by famous films and a reflection on cinema stories and characters. In this workshop, participants experiment with inventing new characters, outlining the characteristics and feelings that will bring them to life, and explore the work of an actor.

This full immersion into the imagination of well-known directors and screenwriters explains how a film begins, journeying from the initial idea to writing the screenplay.
