About this Event

Join Séries Mania Festival Artistic Director Frédéric Lavigne for an inside look at the art of TV-show programming. Explore the backstage of France’'s major TV-series festival in Lille, understand how a festival operates and, what a programmer actually does, and discover career opportunities in the cultural and audiovisual sectors.

Frédéric Lavigne will share his unconventional path, from a biology graduate to film programmer at the Angers Film Festival (Premiers Plans), then to educational outreach at the Forum des Images, to leading Séries Mania, and most recently directing the acclaimed short film “"Cœurs perdus”" (2024).
