"Fashion Dreamers"

« Fashion Dreamers »: students from IFM, New York FIT and Hong Kong Polytechnic University directed 8 films during the Global Fashion Management Executive MBA 10-day intensive seminar.

These films meant to explore the creative universes and processes, as well as the visions of 4 fashion designers: Anne Valérie Hash, Garance Broca-Husson (Monsieur Lacenaire), Gustavo Lins and Jérôme Dreyfuss.

This exercise of collectively creating a documentary allowed students, coached by professional fashion/movie teams to:

• understand the common points between cinema and fashion industry and especially the importance of emotion and storytelling, as well as their technical constraints and possibilities
• experiment the way a movie is made and the different métiers (Producer, Director/Images, Screen Writer, Sound & Music, Editor) and the skills it involves
• work in multicultural teams.

Three prizes were awarded by the public and the jury during the seminar's closing ceremony:

• Best Story: Chemins Croisés / Crossed Paths (Gustavo Lins) and it's playtime (Garance Broca)
• Best Director: it's playtime (Garance Broca)
• Singularity: The Cut (Anne Valérie Hash) et it's playtime (Garance Broca)
