The 15 selected projects selected in January 2013 will receive 10 days of course training. 3 of them will be invited to attend the second round of 15 day courses in 2-3 months in 2013. They will receive 150 thousand euro subsidy for the production of film projects and will be screened at the seventieth Venice International Film Festival in 2013.

Gucci president and chief executive officer Patrizio di Marco commented: "we are very pleased and honored to be able to continue to strengthen our deep partnership with the Venice Biennale through this new major initiative.

"Biennial academy film" project is an innovative and influential project, which coincides with Gucci's long commitment to the preservation, promotion and celebration of film art, and further recognizes the far-reaching impact of film industry on the contemporary and future cultural and artistic heritage.

Gucci's brand name not only lies in craftsmen's craftsmanship, manufacturing, creativity and innovation, but also the basic concept of our career development -- a high sense of responsibility for people, society and environment.

It is precisely because of this concept and the inspiration that has been drawn from the rich and unique classics of Hollywood films in 1940s that we have long been committed to preserving the valuable artistic legacy left by those visionary filmmakers in the past, and supporting the development of contemporary filmmakers, and commending the outstanding contributions of female film workers in various fields of the film industry.

Our ongoing collaboration with the Martin Scorsese Film Foundation and the Gucci Gucci Documentary Fund co founded by the Tribeca Film Institute (Gucci Tribeca Documentary Fund) have hosted the Gucci Women Women annual awards ceremony at the Venice International Film Festival, and fundraising dinner to support the film project of Losangeles (Art Museum). These strategic partnerships are strong testimony to our long-term commitment to the cause of film production.
