Bridging the Gap is one of the leading documentary new talent initiatives in the UK, offering documentary development training, a cash budget, and one year of international festival distribution. This opportunity is open to emerging filmmakers based in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
There’s no specific theme for this year’s open call. But we expect to be surprised, challenged, and moved by submissions that embrace the creativity of the documentary genre, and subvert expectations in terms of form and content.
Join us for an informal inspiration session taking place at Duncan Place in Leith onThursday 5 September (5:30PM - 6:30PM)
We will run through the application guidelines, give you some pointers on developing your short documentary narrative, creating a story from an idea, and how to put this on paper. There will also be a chance to pitch us your ideas, and ask any questions you may have before submitting your application.
