The University-Indústria Audiovisual Pitching, the central event of the Audiovisual Talent Week, is an initiative promoted by the Audiovisual Cluster of Catalonia that helps bring innovative university talent projects to life.

 

Fifteen TecnoCampus students have presented three innovative projects at the Audiovisual Pitching, a pioneering initiative in Europe that helps bring innovative projects from university talent to life. The Audiovisual Pitching started on Wednesday 15 November in the auditorium of the Disseny Hub Barcelona, ​​as part of the ninth Audiovisual Talent Week promoted by the Audiovisual Cluster of Catalonia. For three days, 56 young professionals present forty audiovisual projects in pitch format to leading audiovisual companies and producers with the aim of capturing their interest and helping them take them forward. 

The projects, devised by young people, represent a clear sample of the formats and content that the new generations want to consume: video games, multimedia, series, immersive experiences, fiction feature films, documentaries and informative programs, among others; and issues that concern young people, such as identity crisis, sexuality or social anxiety. 

The TecnoCampus audiovisual projects will compete in the categories of fiction, non-fiction and video games. Mikado: Vida de Via, which is part of the non-fiction category, is the project of students Miquel Gomila, Martí Juanola, Pau Cara and Claudia Ferrando. It is a series that tells the life of an anti-establishment retiree who changed his name to Mikado. The protagonist ran away from his family, from a mysterious past, and now dreams of exile to a fantasy world. 

In the fiction category, the Ésser(s) project, by students Pau Cara, Claudia Ferrando, Pau Artero and Miquel Gomila, tells the story of six young people who volunteer to participate in a social experiment created by a company. The young people have to spend two weeks living together in a house in exchange for financial compensation. The group will only have to answer one question: what do they have in common? 

AXO is the project of students Marina Codony, Hodei Otegi, Víctor Hernando, Arnau Oliveras, Elisabeth Alzzueta, Marc Lloret and Alex Romera that will compete in the video games category. It is a 3D video game about the immersive and exciting journey of a magical axolotl through the temples of the sky. With puzzle mechanics, the emphasis is on exploration and interaction with the different elements and creatures found throughout the scenarios.
