Currently in Vietnam, the producer-training program has not been invested appropriately and has not adapted to the development of the economy and the progress of cinema technology. Vietnamese producers are now in the chances of international integration, however, most of them have not fallen in the line with the modern production trend in the world.

With a view to improving step-by-step the film production in Vietnam and to further assist the project “10 months, 10 short films” in 2007-2008, TPD opened a short term course for devoting young producers.

After the promoting campaign, we selected 13 best students among more than 70 applicants.

At 9am, 13^th August, 2007, the film production course started at TPD. It lasts in two weeks. In the first week, the students are guided by Albert Berger who had produced such films as: Cold Mountain, Little Miss Sunshine, etc. Then, under the instruction of Vietnamese lecturers, the students would further understand the film production in Vietnam.
