Unconscious Bias Training – Creative Process

British Independent Film Awards

Training to help screen industry creatives recognise and mitigate against unconscious bias when writing and creating content

Ideal for all those involved in the creative process, this training module is designed to help participants counteract the effects of unconscious bias on the way they work when writing and creating content. Using a variety of situational examples the course offers participants the chance to consider the ways in which unconscious bias enacts itself at each level of the creative process, from writing to directing, editing to producing and beyond. The course will aim to equip participants with the tools required to prevent unconscious bias and to put in place procedures to mitigate against its impact.Suitable for: anyone responsible for creative narrative (writers, directors, editors, producers)By the end of the session, participants will be able to:<ul><li>Explain the concept of unconscious bias and its impact on decision making in creative working environments, creative output and interactions with work colleagues</li><li>Understand the bi-directional relationship between unconscious bias and the media</li><li>Describe the relationship between implicit association, unconscious bias, language, stereotypes, attitudes and behaviour</li><li>Challenge content, messages and language which may unintentionally reinforce unconscious bias</li><li>Address micro-messaging arising from unconscious bias</li></ul>Our Unconscious Bias Training is developed with and funded by the ScreenSkills Film Skills Fund with contributions from UK film productions.
