18-20 November in Falmouth. Come along and say hello!

Know Your Audience - the role of the audience in development and beyond.
2-3pm National Maritime Museum Education Room
Saturday 19 November

Which films are succeeding in the current market in the UK and internationally? What does a distributor or sales agent look for in a film? How can you use this knowledge to inform what you write, produce and direct? Should you know who your audience is before you start? What role does the critic play in a film’s success?

Your chance to question a fantastic selection of speakers - Martha Coleman - Material Entertainment, Henry Fitzherbert – Sunday Express, London Radio, Sky TV - Film Critic, Tim Harris – Writer, "Trading Places", "Twins", "Kindergarten Cop", Josie Law – Capitol Films Production - Head of Production, and Andy Paterson – Producer, "Girl with a Pearl Earring", "Hilary and Jackie", "Beyond the Sea".


Shorts to Long Trousers - How to Move from Shorts to Features.
10.15 – 11.15am, National Maritime Museum Lecture Theatre
Saturday 19 November

Can shorts help build a career in features? Why do some shorts succeed and others fail? Where should you screen them for maximum impact? Can a short find you an agent? Is the gap between shorts and features too big? What support exists for emerging writers, directors and producers in the UK today?
Invaluable advice for new and emerging talent from Caroline Cooper Charles – UK Film Council New Cinema Fund, Gaby Dellal – Director, "On a Clear Day", Cathy King - Agent, ICM , Natalie Wreyford – UK Film Council Development Fund.
