The BFI Film Audience Network (FAN) is…

a collaboration of eight Film Hubs with a membership of over 1,500 cinemas, film festivals and other film exhibitors across the UK.

Working with cinemas on incredible films like A Fantastic Woman, God’s Own Country and Mustang, we’ve organised panel discussions and parties – we’ve created GIFs, zines, beermats and badges – we’ve worked with local press and online bloggers – we’ve flyered, flash-danced and Facebooked – to ensure that anyone, no matter where they live in the UK, find out about great independent films screening near them.

You are…

• passionate about film
• culturally aware and into the arts
• experienced in marketing and or arts/event promotion
• organised, pro-active, a self-starter
• good at networking and building relationships

What’s on offer?

• Attend a free audience development workshop led by Film Marketing and Distribution specialist, Jo Taylor on 20 September 2018 at Watershed, Bristol
• Your travel will be reimbursed and you will be paid £150 for your time
• Find out more about freelance opportunities in film marketing where you live
• Network with other UK-based freelancers and cinemas
• For film marketers in Wales, there is also an opportunity to work with Film Hub Wales directly on Welsh film releases. More information available following the workshop.
