Underwire comes to you!

In 2012 we will be holding Underwire Networking events throughout the UK.

These events will include a screening of our 2011 festival winners, an opportunity to network, and an ‘open mic’ session where female talent across the crafts can bring along a film or a work-in-progress to screen to the audience for feedback. A safe peer-to-peer network to gain constructive feedback on your latest projects, the Underwire Networking events will provide female filmmakers working across the crafts a meeting point to find new collaborators, start conversations and get creative together.

Below are further details about our forthcoming Networking events. If you would like to take part in the ‘open mic’ part of the evening, please register your details by dropping an email to [email protected]. Please include your name, what role you played in the film (Director, Composer, Editor etc), the film’s running time, and whether it is a completed film or a work in progress.
