Speaker Session 2: : Thursday 17th Feb 6.30 – 8pm
Panel discussion and Q&A with Paul Sng and Jen Corcoran
This event will explore funding models that sit outside of traditional broadcast or commissioning pathways. We’ll look examples of successful crowd funding campaigns, and alternative strategies to generate the resources to get your film made.
We’ll discuss the geographical challenges facing filmmakers here and in other regions. Both Jen and Paul operate outside of the main Film/TV industry hubs (living in Tynemouth and Edinburgh respectively), but both make work recognised on the national and international stage – we’ll hear about their experience of working in the North of England and Scotland.
Events will take place at Side Gallery and will also be live-streamed.
