Scottish-based emerging filmmaker with at least two short films screened publicly (TV broadcast or festival), applications are now open for THIS IS SCOTLAND, our new documentary scheme!
THIS IS SCOTLAND offers the opportunity to work closely with SDI Productions / Scottish Documentary Institute, through bespoke and individual consultancies, and get a commission for a 30 minute commercial slot on STV. We are looking for filmmakers willing to develop insightful projects for broadcast.
There is no imposed theme but we would strongly encourage filmmakers to explore Scottish, contemporary and human stories with a twist of humour. We would also encourage applicants to take note of the commissioner and the schedule into which the content will sit.
6 projects will be selected on the basis of the proposal and the profile of the filmmaker. In the following weeks they will be developed and honed further through two individual consultancies. At the end of January, 2 of these 6 projects will be commissioned for broadcast by STV and produced by SDI Productions. Expected delivery: September 2014
Sorry applications are now closed.
THIS IS SCOTLAND is supported by The National Lottery through Creative Scotland, STV and the Edinburgh College of Art (University of Edinburgh)
