Presentation of the project by IN\u00caS REBANDA COELHO<\/p>\n
“O Crepitar da<\/strong> Terracota” <\/b><\/b>is a fantasy and sci-fi literary trilogy, a format that is little explored in Portugal, especially by Portuguese authors. It deals with various ethnicities, cultures, genders and religions in a futuristic world where humans are going through a period of great hardship and deprivation. The first volume of the trilogy, “Fogo” (Fire), is the first part of the project, which included hiring a Portuguese animation studio, Puto Studio, and a sound studio, Est\u00fadios Origami, to create its teaser book. The story of the trilogy was originally conceived for animation, while maintaining the ambition to adapt it for film or series. It is therefore intended that the second and third volumes will also include animated book teasers and will achieve more artistic collaborations in order to explore the full potential of this wonderful story.<\/p>\n Biography<\/b><\/p>\n In\u00eas Rebanda Coelho <\/b>has a degree in Sound and Image and a master’s degree in Cinema and Audiovisual from Universidade Cat\u00f3lica Portuguesa. In 2018, she completed her PhD in Communication Sciences at the University of Minho.

Although she is not a first-time author, “O Crepitar da Terracota” is her first fantasy and science fiction project and reflects a beautiful and long dream of hers imagined in animation.<\/p>\n Moderator<\/b>: <\/span>Carlos Coelho Costa, who holds a PhD in Art and Design from the University of Porto, is a lecturer at the University of Maia and a researcher at Ciac (Center for Research in Arts and Communication).

Cinema and love are the active principle of these elucubrations conceived in post-crepuscular times. In these formulations, I exuberate in the use and abuse of the dangerous game of words, daring to be even culturally incorrect. In one of the essays in the collection ‘Against Interpretation’ (1966), the sharp Susan Sontag expresses an observation that will give rise to complete unanimity. “Cinema is the only major new artistic form in our century”. Aware of the importance of this art form, ‘Cinema Love’ opens the curtains of the screen to project short films of thoughts, aphorisms, quotes, reflections, comments, maxims, meditations and tributes to cinema and love. In the audience sit cinephiles and cinephiles <\/i>(in Serge Daney’s sense) who love cinema above all worldly things. Faithful lovers to the point of cherishing it and worshipping it as a cinemart. A love that saves, that deserves a round of applause from Cannes.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Biography<\/b><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Danyel Guerra <\/b>(aka Danni Guerra<\/b>) was born in the city of S\u00e3o Sebasti\u00e3o do Rio de Janeiro, in the beloved country of Brazil, on a November day of Venus, under the sign of Scorpio.

He attended the courses Cinema and Intervention <\/i>(at the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of the University of Porto) and Comparative Perspectives of the French Nouvelle Vague <\/i>(at the Alliance Fran\u00e7aise), taught by Prof. David Pinho Barros. At the end of the 1970s, he began collaborating with the magazine Cinema Novo. <\/i>He continued this activity with the magazines Cineclube, Tintin, Cineasta <\/i>and Estreia. <\/i>At R\u00e1dio Porto, in the early 1980s, he wrote a weekly column on the seventh art and in the newspapers Quinzena do Porto, Primeiro de Janeiro, Not\u00edcias da Tarde, Jornal de Not\u00edcias and Correio da Manh\u00e3 <\/i>he wrote dozens of reviews, comments, interviews and reports on the subject. His love of cinema was also expressed in his film club activism. He was simultaneously a member of Cineclube da Boavista, Cineclube do Norte and Cineclube do Porto. In the latter, he was secretary of the board for two successive terms in the 1980s. He was on the jury of several film festivals, most notably the Portuguese Film Prize at Fantasporto. His published work includes Oito e Demy and O Portugu\u00eas do Cinemoda <\/i>(both 2015), which have cinema as their active principle. \u00a0 <\/span>More recently, he has published in the magazines Athena<\/i>, eSTUPIDa and\u00a0 <\/span>InComunidade.\u00a0 <\/span><\/i>She has been a member of the juries of some film festivals, including Fantasporto as the jury for the Portuguese Cinema Prize.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”90px” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”12%” bottom_padding=”9%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/4″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][nectar_highlighted_text color_type=”gradient” highlight_color=”#7056b7″ secondary_color=”#ee8af7″ style=”full_text”]\n DEBATE<\/p>\n “Cinema Today: the real difficulties of financing<\/b>“<\/p>\n with The Group of 7<\/p>\n[\/split_line_heading][vc_column_text]\n The Group of 7: Pedro Farate (Director of Photography), Pedro Gil Vasconcelos (director and screenwriter), Luis Moya (Director of), Isabel Pina (Director), Lu\u00eds Diogo (Director), Vasco Viana (Director), Beatriz Pacheco Pereira (Fantasporto), and others.<\/p>\n A group of film professionals from the North discuss the real difficulties in making short and feature films.
