Today, screens of highly different kinds reflect the influence of video games and the new integrated terminals (web-connected TV). Within the framework of ‹Cinéma Tous Ecrans›, the program of the day features:

  • recent case studies of the interaction between video games, cinema and television;
  • an analysis of Internet-connected TV regarding the nature of audiovisual content, especially the writing, i.e. the effect that the new styles of broadcasting and consumption have on the creative process;
  • a presentation of the best trans-media creations and narrations on the international audiovisual scene (USA, Canada, Europe and Switzerland).
