Filmmakers Meet Up / Feb 2020

Join our Filmmakers Meet Up aimed at emerging film writers, directors and producers, organised in conjunction with BFI NETWORK/Film Hub North. We will kick off the evening with a 30-minute panel discussion with industry guests and practitioners, followed by friendly, informal networking with a drink. Don’t worry if you’re usually stuck for conversation at events, we’re pretty sure our guests will have provided plenty of food for thought!
