Documentary Conference

Documart

The Market Day will include a Documart where independent producers will briefly pitch their ideas to a panel of international broadcasters, financiers and distributors including BBC, Channel 4 and Discovery.

The aim of Documart is to stimulate co-financing and co-production of new documentaries.

approximate budget figure
production schedule
CVs of creative team

Ideas may include one-off documentaries and/or series.
All genres are acceptable. There will be a pre-selection of projects with a maximum of 20 selected for presentation. Presentations will be between 5 to 10 minutes in duration.
