Videobook Award 2018

Creation of a videobook with DOCMINE

Poster GROPPI – EIN STÜCK SCHWEIZ IM HERZEN KAIROS


All projects that were submitted successfully to the DOK.forum Marketplace can also participate in the Videobook Award call for proposals. A jury will select one project among all projects submitted, which will be produced as a videobook for free.

This offer is for innovative writers and filmmakers who wish to add another narrative dimension to their storyline by complementing it with an app containing video sequences, texts, interactive graphs and picture galleries. As a source of inspiration, the videobooks platform presents Videobooks that have already been realized. All videobooks are available as free tablet apps at the app stores.

Selection criteria

  • Story: How suitable is the story to be transformed to another narrative dimension?
  • Media: Is there any additional material supplementing the storyline (third-party rights must be clarified in advance)?
  • Target audience: Does the story address a large general audience?
  • Vision: Why should this story be told in the form of a videobook?

Stay up to date about Videobooks on Facebook and Twitter. Find more information on calls for proposals and information on the legal situation.

Award-winning project 2016

WE ARE THE ROBOTS by Isabella Willinger and Stefan Kloos

Jury's statement

The project convinced the jury through its unusual approach of placing robots in the centre of the story and questioning the future relationship of humans and machines with critical and optimistic hypotheses. The filmmakers tackle the issue with refreshing curiosity and the necessary distance and convincingly described the digital potential of the project. The idea to merge the emotional and the informative layers was particularly promising. WE ARE THE ROBOTS offers a good starting base for a cinematic and digital confrontation with a future that concerns us all.
