How do you #DocSociety Midlands? Hosted by BFI Doc Society Fund with Film Hub Midlands

HOW DO YOU #DOCSOCIETY MIDLANDS?

How do you #DocSociety is a listening tour around the UK. As the BFI’s delegate partner for the UK’s documentary funds, we are interested in how and why you document society. Together, we will remap how we capture, craft, shape and share the stories that matter most now. And, we’ll share the latest on how to apply for and access the BFI Doc Society funds.

In a handful of immersive regional events exploring the new national BFI Doc Society fund and current landscape for non-fiction film, we hear from the filmmakers and decision makers serving the docs community.

Our next stop is Birmingham. We want to know how the good people of the Midlands #DocSociety. Alongside local partner, Film Hub Midlands we will be hosting a full day at MAC Birmingham, of doc appreciation, news on opportunities and support for non-fiction filmmakers, case studies, discussion, networking and one-to-one doc ‘surgeries’. Whether you’re a doc-maker, doc-lover or simply doc-curious, join the community as we embrace a new vision for documentary film in the UK.

WHEN YOU REGISTER WE WILL ASK SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT YOU. WHY?

As funders, producers and cultural influencers, Doc Society have an extra responsibility to be mindful of the differing perspectives, backgrounds and experiences and to consider identity (in all it’s fluidity) in relation to how we approach our work. We also recognise that whilst people hold diverse identities, they may not wish to share all or any of their diverse identities.
