​PRESENTATIONS & INDUSTRY TRAINING
I also do bespoke presentations about festival strategy, press strategy and pitching. I can also do media training for filmmakers or executives.
I have delivered these talks at the National Film and TV School (NFTS); EAVE Marketing Workshop, Inside Pictures, ProPro (Austria), ICO’s Developing Your Film Festival; CoNNEXT in Ghent; for TrustNordisk and the Danish Film Institute in Denmark; for the Scottish Film Talent Network; Film London’s Build Your Audience and Creative England's Market Trader. Please get in touch if you’d like to discuss me giving a presentation to your group.
Here's a short video with some advice for producers. Or here's a film festival strategy session with Shooting People.
TV
I have also done a number of TV interviews, including for BBC News, CNN and Sky News. I was a regular interviewee on SkyArts’ Discovering Film and The Directors series.
