    Peninsula Producers Network

    South west

The Peninsula Producers Network is a development group for new and emerging producers in the far South West.

BFI NETWORK South West is pleased to partner with Screen Cornwall and Exeter Phoenix to bring a second iteration of the Peninsula Producers Network to talent in the region. Following a successful first round in 2021, the Peninsula Producers Network invites producers in Cornwall and Devon to apply to join workshops, events, and a peer network centred on skills development. The deadline for applications is Fri 25 Nov – find out more before you submit an application below.

Our second cohort will receive support and expert guidance, in a series of three events held both online and in person, to develop their producing skills. These sessions will draw upon the expert advice of producers local to our region, including Kate Byers and Linn Waite of Early Day Films (BAIT) and Denzil Monk of Bosena (ENYS MEN). The final session will be an in-person event at the Two Short Nights Film Festival at Exeter Phoenix in February.
