New Producers
New Producers’ is a paid training opportunity for early-career film curators.
The programme aims to reduce the barriers to entry to Scotland’s film exhibition sector. Since 2020, New Producers’ has offered a pathway into film exhibition for early-career curators and programmers.
Each year, four New Producers’ design, curate and deliver film screenings in partnership with a host organisation.
Previous host organisations have included: Alchemy Film & Arts, Glasgow Short Film Festival, Dundee Contemporary Arts, Scottish Queer International Film Festival, Take One Action!, Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival and Scottish Documentary Institute.
Previous editions
Over 20 New Producers (formerly, ‘New Promoters’) have completed the programme to date. They have worked on programmes such as:
