Scottish Documentary Institute invites you to attend an outreach workshop in Dumfries to help you prepare for submission to our Bridging the Gap short documentary film scheme, one of the leading documentary new talent initiatives in the UK.
We will be showing examples of past Bridging the Gap work, explaining the aims of the scheme and how to improve your chances to be short-listed. Please bring along an idea for a short documentary and learn how to develop and focus your proposal and pitching skills.
The workshop will be followed by a short break and a screening of selected Bridging the Gap short documentaries from previous years.
There are limited spaces available so make sure to book your place early. Hosted by SDI and Dumfries & Galloway Council
To register for this workshop please email rebecca@scotdoc.com with your name, postcode and a brief summary about yourself.

The films are intended for distribution in cinemas and festivals. Past projects have screened in film festivals in over 45 countries worldwide and won numerous awards.
