Université Côte d'Azur, Banijay Group and the City of Cannes have created a unique program combining masterclasses with the biggest names of the French creative industry during MipCom, experiences in TV studios, coaching by experts in design thinking and media in exceptional locations in Cannes.
The immersive and intensive 3-week residency will take place in Cannes and costs related to accommodation will be covered by the program.
After these three weeks, the teams will present their project in a final pitch to a jury composed of the residency partners and producers from the Banijay group.
The winning team may be offered internships or fixed-term contracts to participate in the creation of new content with the Banijay teams.
Brief
« NEW TRIBES »
The concept will have to be based on the participation of individuals, groups, tribes usually ignored by the cameras.
They may be people, apparently banal or having a normal life, who will be placed in situations that are unusual or even extraordinary for them, or people or groups whose singularity is little or not treated on television.
Two deliverables are required to validate your application:
A document of 6,000 signs maximum describing your creation: title, synthetic concept, detailed description.
A mood-board (Power point, videos, images, sounds...) which will illustrate the universe and the inspirations of your creation.

CANNES CITY HALL
Within the scope of CANNES ON AIR, a policy supporting the development of cultural and creative industries, the Cannes City Hall has concretized the development, in the west of its territory, of a technopole for the image and creative economy. Led by David Lisnard, this structuring project aims to develop in the city of the first film festival in the world, the international festival of the CANNESERIES series and numerous professional events dedicated to the creative professions (MipTV, MipCom, Midem, Cannes Lions), a sector of the future: that of the audiovisual industry.
UNIVERSITÉ CÔTE D'AZUR
On January 1, 2020, Université Côte d'Azur became an experimental university, replacing both the Université Nice Sophia Antipolis created in 1965 and the Communauté d'Universités et d'Établissements Université Côte d'Azur created in 2015. Université Côte d'Azur now brings together 17 major academic players around the historic university core to build one of the 10 largest research-intensive universities in France.
Université Côte d'Azur brings together highly integrated institutions, major national research centers and associated establishments. The Nice University Hospital is also an active partner within Université Côte d'Azur and participates in its governance.
FONDATION UNIVERSITÉ CÔTE D’AZUR
The UCA Foundation is the fund-raising tool of the new experimental university "Université Côte d'Azur", which supports and finances mainly strategic projects by adding donations from individuals and companies to the IDEX endowment. The UCA Foundation is also accelerating partnerships between local influencers. It places project leaders at the center of a dynamic network. Finally, the UCA Foundation guarantees the quality of the projects because it supports research entrepreneurs in their marketing and communication efforts.
