Resumo: The short-term volunteer programme of IN THE PALACE ISFF offers 25 young people from 7 different countries (Estonia, France, Jordan, Latvia, Portugal, Russia and Spain) the opportunity to get an inside touch of the organization and working process of three established short film events – 10th International Short Film Festival IN THE PALACE and its parallel programmes in film training PLUG-IN and industry meetings FILMER FORGE. 


The project is carried out by Format SFF Foundation (EI: 2010-BG-9) receiving organization and host to the programme. The duration of the project is four months and the volunteers arrive for one month (13th June – 13th July) in the city of festival location – Varna, in order to take part in the preparation and implementation of the festival and all its parallel events. The aim of the project is to allow young people interested in cinema to participate in the organization of these important events, while having access to all screenings, master classes, international debates and networking possibilities which the festival and the parallel programmes offer to industry guests and participants.

Perfil: he volunteers we are looking for have to be (1) of nationality different than Bulgarian; (2) interested in music, art, cinema; (3) communicative and enthusaistic and (4) to have a free command of the English language.

The call for volunteers will be distributed through our social network, though our mailing list, to all film schools around Europe, and through the European Voluntary Service network.
Every one, who meets the above-mentioned requirements, can apply for the volunteer positions.

Tarefas: Volunteers take part in the preparation and implementation of the festival and all its parallel events.

Since the activities related to the volunteers are inextricably linked with the educational aims of the festival, the volunteers will be encouraged to find for themselves which side event of the festival educational programme is most exciting and will be urged to attend the classes (workshops, lectures, seminars, working with producers, directors or musicians, etc.) and learn. This will give them the chance to feel the talent within and to develop their potential. Furthermore, it gives them the opportunity to decide if this is something they want to do for a living and presents them better job opportunities in the future.

By working in a young international team, the volunteers will get the chance to develop a set of various skills such as social skills or intercultural understanding and tolerance.

The volunteers we will host will be accepted as full members of our team and their role will not be just supportive. They will also perform the functions of co-organizars.

The volunteers will be involved mainly in administrative activities. Through day-to-day support the volunteer will gain fundamental knowledge about project management, intercultural skills and organizational management.

Yet, due to the liberal management style of our foundation, the ideas of all employees, including volunteers, have the chance to become real projects.

The activities our volunteers will participate in are related to the festival management. The volunteers, who are responsible for the film programme and the film projections, will manage the audinece flow, give away and check for passes, sell tickets, etc.
The volunteers, who will be responsilbe for the information centre, will deal with registering people, providing information, distributing catalogues, the festival programme, t-shirts, passes, etc.
