CREATIVE PRODUCING MASTER CLASS SERIES:
PRODUCING FOR SCREEN AND SOCIETY
with award-winning Producer David Puttnam
"As intelligent and responsible filmmakers, working in a free society, we have a duty to ensure our chosen medium is a force
for good. Especially in this ever-more complex and difficult world."
David Puttnam
David is the recipient of 10 Academy Awards, 25 BAFTAs among other awards. In 2012 he founded Atticus Education, one of the first digital education firms providing master classes worldwide from his studio in Cork County, Ireland.
Having produced 30 features (The Mission, Killing Fields, Local Hero, Cal, Chariots of Fire, Midnight Express) and documentaries, David brings his experience as an independent film-producer and long-time industry policy maker to each seminar, which allows Atticus Education to be uniquely placed in bridging the gap between industry and education, and to understand every aspect of what a filmmaker needs to achieve their goals.
In true interdisciplinary spirit, David’s twenty four years as a member of the House of Lords, working on climate change legislation and probing the ethical implications of successive new technologies, also informs all his teaching.
A cooperation between eQuinoxe Europe and Atticus Education, David Puttnam‘s PRODUCING FOR SCREEN & SOCIETY Digital Master Class Series is geared to developing creative resilience in every day producing matters for experienced producers.
Examples of topics include the Power of Identity, Evolution and Exploration of Creativity, Fact or Fiction, Builders and Bokers, Music and Meaning, Interpreting the Future, among others.
