Tolu Stedford and Charlotte Knowles, Co-CEOs at the Independent Film Trust, explore their innovative approach to film and creative media finance. The team will break down case studies to show how independent creative projects can be financed to help emerging producers develop sustainable companies and careers.
This interactive workshop will encourage participants to apply this method to their own projects in order to see how creative workflows can become more successful and financially sustainable.
In the workshop, the team will share some practical steps to creating a more robust industry for all, breaking down the barriers to entry, sustainability challenges, and how the UK screen sector can solve future production skill shortages.
The IFT team will explore how lived experiences can feed unique creative voices that can play an important role in changing industry culture and opening doors permanently.
