Directors announced for inaugural Right Here initiative

30th September 2019 / News

A woman stands on a country road at twilight, looking off into the distance, with a dog at her feet and snow-topped hills in the distance.

Following the summer 2019 launch of our new talent initiative, Right Here, we’re now able to announce the directors who’ll be bringing new creative documentaries to television in 2020.

Run in association with Screen Scotland and BBC Scotland, the two-year initiative offers six Scotland-based filmmakers a chance to create 30-minute creative documentaries for broadcast on BBC Scotland.

The first three directors/co-directors who have won commissions, and who we’re now working with on pre-production, are:

  • Lindsay Brown
  • Parisa Urquhart & Ling Lee
  • Kieran Hennigan & Zoe Hunter Gordon

We’ll have more details on the directors and their films in future months, plus details of the second call for applications.

Please sign-up to our newsletter for the latest news on Right Here and other SDI initiatives.
