Jacqui and Craig can you give us a little update on what’s been happening since NIFF launched back in April?
Where to begin????
It’s been non stop. We thought things would slow down after the festival but it’s busier than ever. We’ve been to Spain, India, France and Spain again since we delivered our first international film festival and we’ve never been off the phone as we expand our plans for global partnering for both NiFT 2019 and 54Films
What changes have you made?
Unfortunately and as with all new companies we’ve had to part company with some of the first years team as there were elements that just didn’t work for us and them longer term. But with a renewed focus we look to a much brighter future as we set about ‘being the difference that makes a difference’. It’s important to both Craig and I that whatever we do we do it with integrity and that as a result we provide opportunities for those wanting a career within the sector we are working hard to improve in the north east of England and over time across the wider uk.
