              FILMMAKER / COMMISSIONER RELATIONSHIPS

              14:05 - 15:00 Thursday 27th Mar 2025 / 55 min

              What are the dynamics at play between filmmakers and commissioners? What elements of the relationship are important to ensure the best outcome for the work?

              The relationships between filmmakers and commissioners can be delicate and fraught. They can also be hugely important and beneficial, especially, built up over time, where the commissioner gets to know the filmmaker and how they tick and vice versa. A hugely experienced commissioner from one of the biggest SVODs, sits down with an award winning filmmaker to explore what a relationship of mutual respect can bring to a film.
