BFI Network: Finding Your Voice as a Director


​BFI NETWORK South West have once again teamed up with City Eye to offer this new workshop for directors and writer-directors based locally to Southampton; delivered by Alix Taylor-Searle, BFI NETWORK Talent Executive, and Hampshire-based BFI funded writer-director Lotus Hannon. Join us on Thursday the 24th of March, from 5-7!

Lotus will talk through her journey as a writer-director via talent development schemes, past funded shorts and TV directing experience. Exploring the key pivotal moments in the development of her directorial voice and how she communicates her intentions to funders, producers, agents, and other collaborators.
There will also be an opportunity to explore your own voice as a director or writer-director with your peers in a group-based exercise.

The content of the session is designed to best suit directors or writer-directors who have previously made at least 1-2 short films, who are not currently supported via full time education and who are potentially interested in applying to BFI NETWORK Short Film Funding which re-opens on 14th March.

Date: 24/3/2022
Time: 5-7PM
​Location: City Eye
