To celebrate the 10th anniversary of FEST the organization is preparing what will surely be an unforgettable edition. To ensure we run no risk of failing your expectations we keep adding new name to the long list of guest speakers that will await you this summer in Portugal next June.

After the confirmation of the return of one of the major figures in the world of production design, the Oscar winning art director Eugenio Caballero, that surprised the world of film with his breathtaking work in Guillermo del Toro´s Pan´s Labirynth, we are delighted to announce we have just confirmed another speaker.
This time around we are talking about Justine Seymour, who is coming to FEST-Training Ground to give an impressive master class on Costume Design.
Seymour contributed with her artistic vision to films like Baz Luhrmann´s Moulin Rouge, Brad Bird´s Mission Impossible II, George Lucas´ Star Wars – Attack of the Clones and Ben Lewin’s The Sessions.
Over the past three years Seymour has gained attention in her area with her original creations. She has has the chance to work with some key figures in modern cinema, such as Adrien Brody and Sam Neill, in the film Backtrack by director Michael Petroni; Jessica Alba and Luke Wilson in the vintage movie Dear Eleanor, directed by Kevin Connolly; Christina Ricci , who starred in the film Around the Block, directed by Sarah Spillane, among many others .
Currently , Justine Seymour lives in Los Angeles and she is coming to Portugal to share her experience in the film world as a costume designer, to all participants interested in learning everything about one of the less talked about, yet vital, disciplines in modern filmmaking.
Quoting Seymour: ” The design is a fluid and organic process that captures moods, emotions and personalities on a subliminal level . “
