We're thrilled to introduce the 15 producers taking part in this year's edition of Future Producer School!
Created and delivered in partnership with @bungalowtown, supported by @bbcstudios, the initiative is here to develop up-and-coming documentary producing talent. 💪🎬🎉
Loran is so spot on here. Indie producers are FILMMAKERS. Indie producers are TALENT. Hence why indie producers are also being fucked by a government who values film as a commodity and not as an artistic form to support with more public money, as they do in EU.
Look the thing is we have to view indie producers as artists in the own right, as much as we do writers directors, nobody is in the indie producing for cash or because it makes any sense as a business model.
PUFFLING is headed to Colorado for @AspenFilm ShortsFest. Catch the screening on Sat Apr 15.
Directed by Jessica Bishopp
Produced by Alice Hughes, Gannesh Rajah, Ada Benjamínsdóttir
Over the course of 1 night, Icelandic teenagers Birta and Selma save young puffins from danger.
