The EU XXL Forum comprised representatives and stakeholders of the European audiovisual sector - directors, cinematographers, scriptwriters, composers, actors and authors´ societies - to discuss EU policies concerning the audiovisual sectors.
This joint resolution was formulated on the basis of different panel discussions and working groups under the chair of independent media experts. It serves as a contribution to the ongoing opinion-forming and decision-making process.
One focus of EU XXL Forum 2010 was dedicated to the profession of cinematographers in order to discuss their concerns together with stakeholders of other professions aiming at the identification of common needs and enhancing solidarity of all professions involved in film-making.
Specific attention was paid to the rights´ situation of authors or, more broadly, those creators involved in the production process, and the development of content online as well as the Social Dialogue at European level focusing on working conditions in the media sector (i. a. film and TV).
