"DPC has been a fruitful experience for me: in a few days, I've been able to have a much clearer and a more concrete idea of the digital world, of the key challenges not only for technicians but also for producers like me and to realise the importance of making the right choices at the right moment (for sure it is interesting budget-wise), and of teamwork. Although we live more and more in a virtual world, we make films with people, and communication between professionals involved in a film is still vital to make it happen in the best possible conditions!"
Producer, Berlin
