CPH:LAB, u organizaciji festivala CPH:DOX, predstavlja program usavršavanja koji potiče preuzimanje rizika, promiče prirodni talent, olakšava suradnju izvan granica i poslovnih sektora te podržava vizionare da pomaknu postojeće granice snimanja dokumentarnih filmova.
Program je zamišljen kao inkubator za dokumentarne projekte koji nastoje istražiti potencijal digitalnih interaktivnih tehnologija i unaprijediti nove vizije onoga što dokumentarac može biti u digitalnom dobu. Svojim sudionicima nudi prostor za eksperimentiranje i suradnju u kreativnim, interdisciplinarnim partnerstvima na području filma, kreativne umjetnosti, znanosti, tehnologije i društvenog poduzetništva.
Sudionike će u njihovu radu tijekom programa voditi stručnjak Mark Atkin, kojemu pomaže niz priznatih međunarodnih mentora te tim CPH:DOX-a.
CPH:LAB će se održati kao kombinacija fizičke radionice u listopadu 2024. u Kopenhagenu te online mentorstva od studenoga do veljače 2025. godine. Program će biti zaključen javnom prezentacijom projekata CPH:LAB-a na CPH:DOX-u u Kopenhagenu u ožujku 2025. pred industrijskim stručnjacima, i to prije nego što projekti budu predstavljeni na drugim međunarodnim tržištima i rezidencijama s kojima organizacija ima strateška partnerstva (sudionici CPH:LAB-a dobit će akreditaciju za CPH:DOX 2025, uključujući CPH:FORUM).

CPH:LAB is CPH:DOX’s talent development programme that encourages creative risk taking, celebrates raw talent, facilitates collaboration across borders and business sectors and supports visionaries to push the existing boundaries of documentary filmmaking.
The lab is conceived as an incubator for documentary projects that seek to explore the potential of digital interactive technologies and advance new visions of what a documentary can be in a digital age. It offers a space for experimentation and collaboration in creative, cross-disciplinary partnerships across film, the creative arts, science, technology, and social entrepreneurship.
Participants are guided by the Head of Studies Mark Atkin, who is assisted by a wide variety of acknowledged international mentors besides the CPH:DOX team.
CPH:LAB takes place as a mix of in person workshop in October 2024 in Copenhagen combined with online mentoring for several months from November to February 2025. The programme will be concluded with the CPH:LAB projects’ public presentation at CPH:DOX in Copenhagen in March 2025 to a specially-invited group of industry leaders before taking it to other international markets and residencies with whom the organization has strategic partnerships (CPH:LAB participants will have full access accreditation to CPH:DOX 2025 including CPH:FORUM).
CPH:LAB is designed for filmmakers, artists, and creative technologists keen to explore new forms of expression in factual storytelling and to advance new visions of what a documentary can be in a digital age. Every year the lab supports the development of up to 9 projects and up to 2 participants per project.
Project applications are accepted via online submission form. Please note that there’s an entry fee of 150 DKK (approx. 20 EUR) to be paid to complete the submission. The deadline for submissions is June 21, 2024.
The CPH:LAB has a tuition fee of 3750 DKK (approx. 500 euros per participant) which covers access to all working sessions and documents, group and individual mentoring sessions and follow up activities. CPH:LAB covers accommodation and meals during the two residential workshops in Copenhagen as well as local transport to activities within the programme. Travel expenses should be covered by the participants.
