Photos from the masterclass with Henrik Engström and first session of the Young Horizons Lab 2024/2025

On 24 October in Kinoteka, in Warsaw, the Young Horizons Lab 2024/2025, script development workshop kicked off. To start this edition we organised an open masterclass with Henrik Engström, a co-writer of the “JerryMaya Detective Agency”.

“Write for the children! Don’t mind the parents!”

Our guest shared his experience on the process of working on the scripts for the internationally acclaimed series about young detectives and how is it to work on the story together with another scriptwriter. We talked about the challenges which are waiting for screenwriters working on the adaptations and well as discussed the importance of having a crisis during writing the scripts and what it can teach us.

First session of the Young Horizons Lab: Ready to develop your story?

After the masterclass the moved from the cinema room to the lecturer room to dive into four projects which for the next few months will be developed under the guidance of Philip LaZebnik, the tutor of the Young Horizons Lab workshops.

Many thanks to Henrik Engström and industry professionals who joined the masterclass.

The masterclass and workshops are organised by Young Horizons and Creative Europa Desk Poland. Next session of the Young Horizons Lab is planned in Decemeber.

The Young Horizons Lab, script development workshop is co-financed by the Polish Film Institute.
