#dfnewcday1
A quirky but informative seminar discussing all the ways for new and emerging documentary filmmakers to begin working in factual television. From pitching to (but not stalking) commissioning editors, to protecting ideas; from working with production companies, to New Talent slots - this seminar offers a comprehensive beginners guide to getting into television. Hosted by Andy Glynne with commissioning editor Aysha Rafaele from Channel 4’s First Cut strand, the session will involve contributions from first time filmmakers, experienced directors and executive producers.
