The Story Room is a cosy virtual hub open to all DAE filmmakers working on a project and eager to engage and share with other DAE filmmakers across the world.
Join us for our DAE Story Room and the DAE Story Room Shorts, a dedicated space for short film projects.
This format is an off-the-stage space where filmmakers meet, present projects and discuss challenges during development or post-production, seek advice before going into the open or listen in to other projects, collecting and sharing resources.
Even if you’re early on in your project or just curious to meet new people, this format is for you. Benefit from the knowledge of the group, contribute to the discussion and meet other DAE filmmakers from across the world.

THE STORY ROOM
The Story Room will open every first Friday of every other month. We distinguish between (Pre-)Development/Production Story Room and Rough Cut Story Room which happen interchangeably with two project presentations per 2-hour session. The Story Room will also invite industry professionals from various fields for inputs tailored to the needs of the group.
The Story Room is led and facilitated by DAE Senior Consultants Laura Kloeckner, Mariia Ponomarova and Bronte Stahl.
Our next Story Room session will be on FRIDAY, 6 June 2025, 15 CEST. The group will focus on projects in rough-cut stage. Members only, to register, please fill in this form and send an email to storyroom@dae-europe.org with a short description of your project to arrange for a slot
We have created a Community Agreement that all participants agree to when they enter this space. Please find it here for review before joining.
