BFI Doc Society and BFI NETWORK Filmmaker Mixer

Join BFI NETWORK partners BFI Doc Society and Film Hub North at the 19th Berwick Film and Media Arts Festival (BFMAF) this 7-10 March.

Join BFI NETWORK partners BFI Doc Society and Film Hub North at the 19th Berwick Film and Media Arts Festival (BFMAF) this 7-10 March. 

At 12pm on Friday 8 March in the Maltings Theatre, Berwick-upon-Tweed, we'll host an informal talent mixer for independent filmmakers and narrative/doc-curious creatives. 

BFI Mixers bring together local creatives and provide opportunities for growing your network, finding collaborators and connecting with the filmmaking community. There's no set agenda for these events; we encourage you to introduce yourself to someone new and get talking.

The event also offers the chance to connect with BFI representatives, hear about regional opportunities and short film funding from Jen Bradfield (BFI NETWORK Talent Executive, Film Hub North) and Luke Moody (Head of the BFI Doc Society Fund).
