We're excited to introduce you to the participants on the two Producer Programmes we ran earlier in 2024. Our RISE programme is aimed at emerging feature doc producers from across the UK and runs until September 2024. You can find out more about the cohort here.

The Producing Truth programme, supported by the ScreenSkills Film Skills Fund and delivered by BFI Doc Society, Scottish Documentary Institute, Screen Alliance Wales and Docs Ireland, was aimed at mid-level feature doc producers. Meet the participants here.

In April, we were also pleased to host a virtual delegation of six UK filmmakers who identify as disabled, deaf and/or neurodivergent to IDA's Getting Real'24 conference. Find out more about them here.
