Talent Camp is a week of masterclasses, workshops, and networking between young filmmakers from all over the world in week 35 during Odense Int. Film Festival. We accept approximately 20 filmmakers between the age of 21-30 years each year, who are exposed to one of the most intensive weeks in their filmmaking career, a rich experience, and new friends for life. To ensure the highest quality and a week with access to the best short films in the world., we cooperate with Danish and European Film Workshops in the Screen Talent Europe-partnership as well as Odense International Film Festival - our local Oscar-qualifying short film festival.

Our aim is to give a group of young filmmakers the opportunity to develop their craft and skills, but also to broaden their international network, so their chance of breaking the industry increases further.

Talent Camp is an intense week packed with masterclasses and workshop, aimed at developing your skills as a filmmaker. During this week you will have plenty of opportunity to learn from industry professionals and also network with filmmakers!

Talent Camp is held in late August in week 35 during Odense International Film Festival – a close partner to us in the creation of the camp. The camp starts on Monday, August 25th and officially ends Friday evening, August 29th, with an overnight stay until August 30th.

Talent Camp takes place at Film Workshop Odense, located in the cultural mecca of Odense right above the film festival.

The application submission for 2025 has now closed, but stay tuned for Talent Camp Odense 2026.
