In its continuous efforts to enrich and champion film education in the country, the Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP) will hold the first-ever Film Education Convention (FilmEC) on September 17-18 at De La Salle - College of Saint Benilde in Manila.
FilmEC is a two-day convention, bringing together film creatives from the academe and in the industry. This activity-filled event features screenings of exemplary student short films, panel discussions, plenary talks, film book sales, and networking opportunities for film students and educators.
“The FDCP has put together the Film Education Convention, to gather both teachers and students of film to converge, get to know one another and engage in conversations that will break barriers of language or institutional representation,” FDCP Chairman and CEO Jose Javier Reyes said in a statement.
